Great vibe- newly renovated, very clean and friendly staff. Only nitpick was that finding the room was a challenge, the rooms/hallways/exits aren’t well marked and feel like a labyrinth, including MC Escher floors and rooms that start with a 2 that are on the 3rd floor.

Great friendly hotel, staff couldn’t have been friendlier. I only marked 4 of 5 for comfort because I prefer a softer bed. But still great.

Fantastic stay!!

Our stay at Ruby Bea was phenomenal. Staff were super friendly, approachable and helpful. We loved everything about the hotel and its location. A short walk from the hustle and bustle of the city highlights, so environment was quiet. Entire visit was great and would definitely stay at the Ruby Bea Hotel again!

We had a great stay at Ruby Bea in Florence and would definitely recommend it. The room was a bit small with limited storage, but clean and comfy. Staff were super friendly and helpful. It’s about a 20–25 min walk to the city center, and right by the tram and bus stop—really convenient. The breakfast buffet was tasty and affordable. Only downside was the vending machines didn’t work and there’s no food service at night, but plenty of delivery options nearby. Cool, modern vibe—and yes, you can even play an electric guitar in your room!
