Convenient location with a nice room and very comfortable bed. Breakfast was included and had a vast selection of choices.
Only downside was at times some noise from people talking loudly and late, down in the plaza below the hotel.

The room was a good size with a king bed and full ensuite bath. Very comfortable beds and sparkling clean. Breakfast included a large selection of pastries, eggs, juices, coffees and many other selections. Staff were friendly and helpful. I recommend this and would stay again.
American coffee was not hot at breakfast either morning.

Location, location, location....it is a short 5" walk from the train station to the hotel which is located on a main town square with resturants, bars and stores located around the square. From the hotel, we walked to everything in old town Florence, including some pretty fancy stores. The hotel staff were very welcoming and helpful too. Breakfast was out of this world good too. There was also a nice place with sofas were we could sit outside of our rooms. Highly recommend this hotel
Nothing.

Excellent location, close to transportation hubs, major tourist attractions and good restaurants. A very good breakfast with a patio overlooking the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella. Our room was comfortable with window views of Piazza Santa Maria Novella
On two of our five-night stay, a noisy couple in an adjacent room woke us with their middle-of-the-night activities. The shower was nice but cramped with no soap or shampoo dispensers.

The staff were amazing! So kind and helpful, and they really made the stay even better. They upgraded me from a single room to a double, and it was a nice surprise! The breakfast was great, as was the location of the hotel, as it's a few minutes on foot from the station, and right on the edge of Piazza Santa Maria Novella where you have a bunch of five star properties. The terrace off the breakfast room was really beautiful and I could see that being amazing when the weather is nicer. It was also very clean and organized. Really, I would stay again in a heartbeat, and I will look for their availability first the next time I visit Firenze!
The bed was a little uncomfortable for me, as it was too firm, but I still slept mostly OK minus a few wake ups. Some constructive feedback is that the hotel could do with a bit of extra maintenance/upkeep. It's a beautiful place, and obviously historic, which they lean into (rightly so!), and it was very clean, but you can see the wear and tear a bit, so I hope the owners have plans to take care of that soon! Also, they need some new hairdryers ?. Mine worked for 30 seconds to 1 minute at a time before it would overheat and I'd have to wait for it to cool down to use it again, which is not the ideal setup for a morning routine. ? These are all easy, cosmetic fixes and didn't really impact the stay, but for a four star hotel, I expected a little more in that department.

outside noise during night Some water issues had a cold shower one morning. questionable people outside entry door at night doing drugs. Had to leave early due to upcoming train strike - hotel would not give any credit at all for early check out.
