Wonderful stay

Even before we arrived, Veronica, our host, contacted me to inquire about our arrival. She gave us excellent directions and was waiting for us, in the pouring rain!, to direct us to the parking, have our luggage taken care of and guide us to the loft. She is the most helpful, friendly and caring host we have ever had the chance to interact with on our travels. She made us feel welcome, showed us around the property, and helped us plan our stay in Cinque Terre. She even helped us reserve the restaurant we wanted to eat at in the evening. The loft is beautiful, with a jacuzzi and a sauna! Very conveniently located in Riomagiorre. And the breakfast the next morning was heavenly. Veronica brought dish after dish of delicious food, croissants, eggs, crepes, fruit, whatever we wished for. Overall, this experience was one of the best we ever had.

It was a great stay but unfortunately I left in a hurry to get to the rental car and dropped a small ziplock with credit card, health insurance card and $500 in various currencies. As soon as I noticed that evening I called and then emailed the hotel. I didn't hear back at all. When I called again halfway through the conversation the staff person hung up on me. It negatively impacted my memory which had been so great! Dinner and breakfast were very nice.

Riva Lofts 5/5

This hotel is a hidden gem in Florence. We celebrated my 60th birthday. If bespoke and boutique is your favourite hotel choice, Riva Lofts is a wonderful choice. Leafy green gardens to rest under and a beautiful pool to cool off in during the hot Italian summer. The tram from the main train station only €1.70 and three stops to the hotel - super easy to get to and from.

Exceptional!! The two bedroom, two bath loft was absolutely amazing. Immaculate. Gorgeous. The grounds are beautiful and so is the pool. Staff was super friendly. They helped with taxis and guided us on what to see and how to get there. The continental breakfast was delicious. The property is in a quiet neighborhood, which is a nice respite from the hustle n bustle of downtown. The tram that takes you into the historic center is only a few minutes walk, very convenient. I can't say enough how much we loved this place. We want to return asap!

The place is nice however there are few disappointing conditions First is is pretty far from the center contrary to what is written it takes half an hour in public transportation to get to the center, which means at least an hour a day and if you want to come and go it is more cumbersome Second the staff is not available. In the evening there’s no one to answer, not even on the phone. The room itself is clean and well kept but there isn’t enough light , which makes it difficult and uncomfortable. The yard and the pool are very nice and welcoming and if you are looking for some getaway from the crowded city it is really nice. As for the breakfast it varies on different days, on one day it was very slim on the second much reacher.

The property was interesting and located away from the center of Florence (a plus). Nice pool and bar. Pleasant staff. The breakfast was completely inadequate and sad— almost nothing to choose from (and for 300 a night you would expect considerably more… ).

The facility is very modern, tasteful and well kept. The common lounge/breakfast room is super comfortable and the staff (particularly Sara and Elenora, who I dealt with) were very friendly capable and helpful. I would hire either of them in a second. The breakfast (included with the room) had many options and were fresh and tasty. When you approach this place, it seems rather out of the way, but the tram station into town in a block away and access to the city center was actually pretty easy. The one limitation is the lack of nearby restaurants. There is a fantastic pastry shop a block away, but restaurants for dinner require a 15-20 minute walk - manageable, but not great. All- in-all, we enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to go back.
