Probably one of the best locations possible. Right across the street from the train station, just a 7 minute walk. Tons of restaurants and bars in the Square itself and walkable into the main Square where the cathedral and other major site attractions are(within 5min). Shopping is all around, people are nice and friendly, amenities were great, breakfast was included every day. I’d stay here again given the choice.

This was a great hotel for our stay in Florence! It had great amenities (loved the cozy bathrobes and bathroom products) and the breakfast that came included in the price of the room was so delicious. It was the perfect location to walk to all of the major sights and a close walk to the Ponte Veccio. It's bar was very fun for a drink and appetizer in the evening and it was a close walk to the train station.
