Liked: Cleanliness
Although the lobby is gorgeous, it’s very confusing trying to find your room. There are staircases with very little instruction as to which way to go. The air conditioning in our room did not work the first night and it had been in the 90s during the day. It took them until 5 o’clock to fix the air conditioning the next day. Unfortunately, the other member of my party had been sick in bed all day sweltering. The location is fabulous. Breakfast was decent.

Lovely location, very friendly staff, the sky bar was so much fun. The air control is central in that you cannot change to a/c if the hotel is on heat but we were able to leave the window open at night with a nice breeze. We would absolutely stay here again. Luciano at the front desk was especially helpful and friendly.

Great location. Unfortunately no AC which meant window needed to be open, very busy street making it difficult to sleep. WiFi was very poor signal. Overall most people would like enjoy significantly but wasn’t the right fit for me since I needed internet access and need temp control. Staff was nice.

We’ve stayed at Hotel La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio during late February. We were expecting a double standard room with garden for which the photos displayed beautiful interiors and furniture. However, we were utterly disappointed with the room which is complete opposite of the website images. The room lighting was dimmed, bed was in awkward centre position and there were no garden views outside the window. I would not advise this stay if one is anticipating their bookings to be presented exactly what’s shown on the page.
