The location is hard to beat. It was only a 10-15 minute walk from the main train station (S.M. Novella) to the B&B, and less than 50 yards from the beginning of the Florence Duomo plaza or square. The view from our balcony of the Duomo was just outstanding . The two brothers that manage the property were very kind and helpful. Twice they arranged cabs to meet us within 50 feet of the entrance. You do need to be prepared to walk up stairs to what I would say is equivalent to the 2nd or 3rd floor in the USA. When we arrived by train though, they arranged to meet is on the grand floor to assist with luggage (we traveled light though). The property only is 5 suites in a much larger, very old palace building, but this space is renovated and very nice. It felt safe because you are given a code to a strong gate at the building entrance and into the reception room on the level of the rooms. The stairs are well lit with hand railings. We easily walked to the river, Uffizi and Accademia, and other attractions. Scored of great restaurants and shopping are all around.

Nothing. If I was super particular, an elevator would have been good, but the stairs were not hard on us.

This was our favorite property in our whole 2 week stay in Italy! The location was perfect, the room was very spacious and the breakfast was absolutely amazing every single day! Not to mention, opening your window to see the duomo every morning..WOW!!! Eduardo was so accommodating for anything and everything!!! He brought breakfast at a different time every morning to accommodate all of our tours! He even gave us croissants to go as we missed breakfast one morning for an early tour! I cannot say enough about this place or Eduardo. This place is such a gem, I am so glad it worked out for us to stay here. Cant wait to come next year for longer. THANK YOU EDUARDO!

There is NOT ONE thing that we didn't love about this B&B! It far exceeded our expectations! I thought it would be very noisy at night, being in the heart of the city but we didn't hear anything! He left ear plugs just in case but we didn't need them! We cannot wait to return next year!

This is in a lovely old building in the heart of Florence. Beautiful suite, very comfy bed and pillows, had a safe and a fridge with hanging space above. Edoardo was a great host and even arranged a bottle of Prosecco and cake for my wife’s birthday. Being in the centre you have to expect noise but the double glazing did a good job at night. Lovely balcony with views of the Duomo and some very random street performers outside on most days. Easy to get to the station, easy to get to all the sights. Good choice for breakfast. We can’t recommend highly enough!

There wasn’t anything we didn’t like. It’s not a 5 star B&B so we didn’t go in with those sorts of expectations.

I loved everything about this place. the hosts were extraordinary ! always at our disposal.. they met us right out of our taxi they carried our luggage and had prosecco ham and cheese etc in our room.. they reserved cars and taxis.. they brought us breakfast to our room every morning. one morning we had an early morning tour and they left us a bag with pastries and bottles of juice. and every afternoon we got back from a long day and there were pastry’s and treats in our room.. I seriously am amazed how wonderfully attentive and helpful they were… The day we left he got our taxi and carried our luggage down and waits with us till cab arrived! 14 days wasn’t enough .. they were spectacular and will definitely return.. Loved everything

nothing at all

The property and host Edoardo were spectacular. He anticipated our every need and delivered authentic, beautiful service. The view out our window in the historic city center was transporting including the Duomo itself … we loved it! The room was beautiful with the feeling of being in a palace yet with a fully outfitted, lovely modern bathroom. And the room service breakfast was exceptional. Stay here, you’ll love it. Highest recommendations! 🇮🇹🇮🇹

You have to be careful entering the front gate but if you’re mobile, it’s fine.

The host, Edoardo, went out of his way to make us feel comfortable at his B&B - very gracious and welcoming with kind touches like fresh pastries in the room each day and arranging a late check-out for us. The location of the B&B is excellent - we had a view of the Duomo 150 metres from our window - and even if it is in a busy area it is very calm. The bed was very comfortable, the bathroom was enormous and breakfast (delivered in the room at a pre-arranged time) was good.

There was nothing really. Perhaps a small side table by the bed was missing?

The location was spectacular — directly across from the Duomo and in close proximity to all the major museums, historical sites, restaurants. It could not have been better located. The room was very large (410 SF, very tastefully furnished with 20 foot high ceilings, and immaculately clean. Édouardo was an exceptional host who paid attention to our every need. Breakfast was delicious, replete with fruit, fresh pastries, wonderful coffee. Every evening, we returned to the room to find a lovely plate of delicious pastries. You cannot find a better hotel or host in Florence.

It was a fabulous place to stay.

This hotel is not only about the great location or the breathtaking view from the balcony. Here, extraordinary people take care of your stay, who make sure that you feel special at every step. Every day we received breakfast in the room and during the day - free treats from the owners, such small gestures like pastries or antipasti. On the day of check-out, the owner himself suggested that we stay until our train departed, we didn't even have to ask. I definitely recommend it and I will definitely come back here!

Nothing to share here - everything was just perfect!

I absolutely love, love , love this property. Oh.. what a view. Eduardo was absolutely amazing. He waited outside for me when I arrived, took my suitcases to my room, made breakfast every morning and delivered it to my room. I had excursion one morning and I was not there for breakfast so he made sure that I had some pastries and water for next day, he brought it for me to my room. He scheduled taxi to take me to a meeting point for my excursion. When I came back he made me spritzer to relax.How wonderful is that. I was just speechless. Wonderful, wonderful, kind and very very caring human being. Guy in the morning when I was checking out took my bags and called the taxi and waited with me until taxi arrived. My room was beautiful with view of the dome. Waking up to that and having a breakfast delivered to my room, priceless. I would return here in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything Eduardo.

Loved everything

You can’t beat the location!!! It was brutally hot while we were there, and it was nice to go back to our room to cool off periodically. The owner, or man we interacted with, was THE BEST! Very helpful and kind with all our questions. When we left early for a train on our last day, he offered to pack us a lunch. It’s nice to have breakfast delivered to the room every morning.

We didn’t dislike this, but the rooms are small, so just be prepared.
