Everything about the hotel was clean and well maintained. The room was spacious with a comfortable bed with a good bathroom. The breakfast had a wide choice, was excellent and the staff worked extremely hard. Being just a short walk from the bus and tram station made it easy to get to from the airport, but then everywhere we wanted to visit was also an easy walk. Just a perfect location to visit Florence.

I was placed in a room directly across from major construction in 3+ rooms on the 3rd floor. Check-in is 2pm and construction went past 5pm. Neither Hotels.com nor the hotel mentioned the major construction. Not only the sounds (8am-5pm) but the smell of plaster and dust was harmful to my health. The front desk was somewhat rude when I asked for a new room. The hotel offered me a drink for having to change room. Disappointing

Delightful Hotel, Helpful Staff

A delightful hotel with very helpful and friendly reception staff. Buffet breakfast was included in the tariff and was delicious. Large room, stylish, minimalist furnishing, a door opening to a small, high walled “smoker’s balcony”, sky view only. Bed was comfortable. Supplied with two baggage stands, a rare bonus, frig, a kettle, glasses but only cardboard cups for hot drinks. Supplies were not replenished without request. There is plenty of room to accommodate a small table and upright chairs which would have increased our comfort without spoiling the uncluttered ambience. There is a step up to the small bathroom which has a small walk-in shower without grab bar. There is no vanity bench space or storage, just a basin with a stool underneath that could hold a few toiletries. Liquid soap but no shampoo or conditioner provided. Wall mounted hair dryer not working but housekeeping obliged with a hand held one. The hotel is close to Santa Maria Novella and we found it easy to walk to the popular tourist sites. We enjoyed two excellent dinners at the very popular with Florentines and tourists, Osteria dei Centopoveri, entry on Via Porcellana one block away from the hotel

My 5 night stay at Croce Di Malta was excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful, the public spaces were clean and inviting. I was fortunate to get a balcony room with a wonderful view and also spacious, well-kept with comfortable beds. The breakfast was great with multiple types of coffee and other drinks, and quality hot and cold food selections. I'd stay again if in Florence and recommend highly. It's also near the train station and lots of restaurants in short walking distance.

We loved our stay at Croce Di Malta, it was our second visit to the hotel, having stayed there 25 years ago and actually got engaged there on the balcony, so it will always have a special place in our hearts. Great city views from the rooftop. Buffet breakfast was delicious and the staff are super polite and helpful. Can't wait to stay there again.

Fantastic location, next to the train station and very close to the historic centre. Breakfast was good and service attentive. Coffee was better when prepared at the bar rather than the machine, of course. Some renovations and better insulation between the rooms would be helpful. A pleasant stay overall

Less Than Desirable

The location is great, more central in Florence, and the staff very friendly, but the condition of our room was less than desirable. The room, while big (2 floors), is dated. The staircase shakes a little bit and is slightly unnerving. We had constant issues with mosquitos (and we did not even open the window). We were constantly getting bit and must've killed a dozen or more mosquitos during our 2 night stay. You can even see on the walls were past guests have killed mosquitos (blood splatters). This made sleeping and getting a good nights rest nearly impossible. The bathroom, particularly the shower is terrible. And given where the showered head is positioned, water will get all over the floor. Unlike Asia which has a lot of wet bathrooms, which include a drain in the floor for water to drain, this hotel bathroom does not. So the water will just pool on the floor and you're either forced to just let the water sit there (which you can slip, or get wet feet while using the bathroom), or you have to dry the floor with your towel after every shower. We're not paying money to stay at a hotel to clean the bathroom floor for the hotel. I would not recommend anyone stay here (at least our room) but either 1) pay more money for a nicer hotel, or 2) stay in a more modern/updated hotel.

The location was excellent and so was the breakfast. The property is old and has a very strong strange smell in the room. The management has asked the staff to only turn air conditioning when specifically requested. I did on the day I checked it but they turned it off a few days later and that made the smell worse. The staff was trying to assist but they had no other rooms available.
