My husband and I spent 4 days in Florence at this absolutely fantastic boutique hotel. The staff was so helpful and friendly. It's very well situated, walking distance to all the important places to be seen in Florence. Their breakfast was very good and we really enjoyed their bar area. We will definitely be back soon!

Get off the train in Florence and in 5 minutes you are at the hotel located on the Santa Maria Novella Square. This was a huge plus for us and our overstuffed suitcases. The location was perfect for us - near the Central Market, shopping, museums, etc. We walked everywhere. The room and bathroom were gorgeous and large, especially by... More

Without any doubt, my wife and I hit gold when we decided upon Hotel L'Orologio for our 5 night stay in Florence just earlier this month (5/7 - 5/11). From the moment from check-in to check-out, nothing in this hotel is short of spectacular. Room was spotless as was the rest of the hotel space; breakfast offering is nothing like... More

A perfect to stay when in Florence. The location is perfect. Just a 5 minute walk from the train station. ( we waited 25 minutes in a taxi queue for a 3 minute ride) the hotel is a total refurb with very large modern room. Excellent bathroom !!! Very helpful staff. Highly recommended.

We stayed here in February and saw weather from all four seasons in four days from strong sun to snow. The hotel is really well located (although not very well signposted) and within easy walking distance of the main sights. Breakfast was excellent and the breakfast room had great views on to the Piazza Santa Maria Novella below. The whole... More

We walked past the hotel the first time but because we've previously seen some photos, we were able to find it fairly quickly (note: the hotel signage at street level is rather small). Located close to the train station and across from the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, it is in a convenient location and an easy walk to tourist... More

Our trip to Florence was the gateway for our family trip to Italy. My husband and I adore Italy and we wanted our children to feel the same. We hope to make this regular pilgrimage for the entire family going forward. After 20 hours of travel, their introduction had to be perfect and the Hotel L'Orologio was the ideal destination....

This is a decent hotel close to the train station. It's a bit pricy, but you're paying for the location. One thing that surprised me was that they have shower curtains in the shower, and ours was very smelly. Also, the breakfast restaurant is very cramped in the morning. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and it was a... More

My first impression upon walking into the Hotel L'Orologio was that the hotel could easily have been in New York. It has a beautiful, modern esthetic and is a short two minute walk from the Santa Maria Novella church and train station. Everything is a ten minute walk, as Florence is not too big of a city. We LOVED our... More

Clean, modern with really nice public rooms, and a good breakfast. Ideally placed far enough from the station to be in the old city, but near enough to walk with a suitcase. My only problem was that there was only one large towel, and I accidentally dropped it in the bath before drying myself.
