The location is superb whether to the train or bus terminal, shuttle bus to barberino outlet, ponte vecchio, etc. Just great. After a tiring day out shopping or day tour, my hubby and I were simply glad that our accomodation was so near to the dropoff point. I originally wanted to book hotel rapallo but no availability despite booking it... More

The location of this lovely B&B is terrific--a short walk from Santa Maria Novella train station, and within easy walking distance to Firenze's attractions. Rafaella and Giulia couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. They were wonderful. The room was large, very clean, comfortable and quiet. The welcome basket of fruit was a nice touch. My wife and I will... More

We picked this B&B because it was close to the train station, but not only is it convenient to the train (easy walk with bags) but it is close to all the other attractions in Florence. The staff was very friendly and helpful and made our arrangements easy. Everyone spoke English (although I tried to practice my Italian!). The room... More

It was so easy to get to having come by train from Bologna (and to return back to Pisa), and to receive a warm welcome and very helpful local information, even having... More

We’ve stayed here before and that’s why we are here again. This motel is very easy to find from the train station. The staff is very welcoming and helpful. They have great suggestions for dinner so take advantage of this service. The room was wonderful. We had a balcony that overlooked Santa Maria Novella church, my favorite in all of... More

La Residenza dell'Orafo had all the ingredients for a wonderful holiday in Florence and we would recommend without hesitation. The room was wonderfully clean and spacious (we had the Sky room), great location (3 minutes’ walk from the train station), free WI-FI, plenty of extra pillows and blankets and complimentary snacks and bottled water. Our room faced the main road... More
