Upon arriving at "Il Giglio D'Oro" we were welcomed by a smiling Edo who immediately took us around the neighborhood, showing us places to get breakfast, pizza, fruit, etc. There are three great restaurants within five minutes from the hotel, one of which is directly across the street. One of the best meals we have had in Italy! Giglio is... More

We were warmly hosted by Edo, Celia & (baby) Jennifer who provided accommodation, useful information about the city and most importantly, friendship. They showed us all the 'local' restaurants to try and invited us to join in the Italian culture. Conveniently located near the museums, a ten-minute bus ride took us into the heart of the old town. For a... More

This is our first time to Florence. The house is conveniently located with buses from the rail station and from the historical centre stopping right outside the door. Edo, Celia and little Jennifer made us felt very welcome to this wonderful city. We adviced them on our arrival time the night before and Edo greeted us at the door with... More

Due to some business meetings across 2 different weeks, I had a few extra days free, was able to bring my wife with me and we chose to return to Florence for a few days, and stayed where we did almost a year ago at Il Gilgio d'Oro. As it was our first time, the stay was perfect. A very... More

This review is a bit late but I needed some time to recover from my trip. Edo and Cecilia are wonderful. Everything people say about them is true. They are the consummate hosts. Unfortunately what I want in a bed and breakfast is sleep and food. I got neither. The rooms overlooking the street are terribly noisy. The noise is... More

We stayed at Edo's B&B for 4 nights over the Easter holiday and had a wonderful time. After a week and a half of roaming Europe, it was truly refreshing to stay somewhere that felt like a home. Edo showed us around the neighborhood upon our arrival and offered us refreshments. The room was large, comfortable with a high ceiling... More

We spent 3 nights at IL Giglio D’oro. Edo and his wife Cecila are gracious, helpful and energetic hosts. We opted for the room with a small balcony and refrig. The room was very comfortable but some issues with the wi-fi. This is more of a guest house - if the people in the adjacent rooms are noisy – there... More

Hosts (Edo, Celia & Baby Jennifer) has been nothing but full of smiles (yes, the baby too) and making you feel comfortable like you are at the comfort of your home. B&B is amazingly located in my opinion with the following reasons: 1) 7min via bus from SMN Train station (which costs 1.20€ and you can buy at the Tabacchi... More

Thank you Edo, Celia and Jennifer for your wonderful hospitality in your beautiful guest house. A true home from home for three nights, where we felt most welcome and part of the small community after five minutes of arrival. Edo your energy is contagious and your willingness and generosity to go out of your way for your guests is second... More
