Very Good
The breakfast has a very good selection. The nearness to the train station and the Santa Maria Novella cathedral was great. The decor was lovely and elegant.
The room facing the street was sometimes exposed to a good deal of noise.

Went for this hotel as wanted to be in this particular area. Staff by prior arrangements allowed us to leave our cases before check in as we arrived by train early morning. Good location 5-10 min walk from train station. Restaurants cafes all close by. Duomo 10 min walk. Room clean, staff friendly. Were surprised and pleased to be given a room over looking the church and piazza.
nothing, all good

Disappointing
Location was good.
Room had damp, window was non-existant, breakfast was very poor quality. Seemed more like a 2 star than a 4 star hotel.

Everything was great. The terrace off the breakfast room was so cute! Location was perfect, just across the road from the train station and a few minutes walk to the Duomo which leads to so much more from there! We had 3 in our room set up with a queen bed and twin bed and it was very, very roomy. The staff was very cordial and accommodating in leaving our bags beyond checkout. Breakfast was very nicely prepared but not outstanding in quality. I would definitely recommend and would stay again.
Nothing to report on dislikes.

Very Poor
Really bad experience. Staying there for tow nights. The first night we dint sleep at all because it was so noisy from outside and the window frame wS broken so could not close enough do it was both cold and noisy. Next morning when I complained one of the stuff was very rude. Anyway bad experience not all a 4 star hotel, and actually it smells terrible. Not recommended. Thank you for your reply, but accusing guests of trying to get free items instead of taking responsibility says everything about your attitude. This review was not about free breakfast or free drinks. It was about a broken room, no sleep, rude staff, and a very poor overall experience. On our first evening, the receptionist was rude, said he was too busy to serve us properly, then charged €9 for a tiny whiskey while handling the ice with his bare hand. The first room was cold and extremely noisy because the window was broken and would not close properly, so we could not sleep. The next morning, the same staff member was again rude when I complained. Only later did another younger employee apologize and move us to another room. He was the only person who behaved professionally. At check-out, I also found excessive charges on the bill, including €12 for two pieces of bread and some cheese. Only after I said I would report the matter and leave an honest review was I offered free breakfast. A broken room, rude service, poor hygiene, and a sleepless night cannot be fixed with free breakfast afterward. Your reply confirms the real problem was not only the hotel itself, but also the complete lack of professionalism and accountability.

We stayed here for our honeymoon! The staff were so helpful, friendly and professional. This spot was very clean provided all the toiletries you’d need. They also had a laundry service that we would have use except we were only there for one night! Wish we had booked more time here! Our Vespa tour ended up getting delayed due to rain and the staff were so fast to reply when I was worried about the later check in time :) We had a beautiful view and the bed was HUGE! Also we had to catch the train in the morning at it was a 3min walk to the station! Perfect :)
My husband found it a little noisy due to the location but I brought my ear plugs and had no problem falling asleep. The other thing is you need your room key to “power” the room so we left for dinner thinking my headphones would be charging when we were gone but that was not the case.
