Although conveniently located, this hotel is the pits! Hot water sometimes, coffee machine broken for two of the three days we stayed, room and bathroom filthy (I'm being kind here!), ice machine broken, and we were told if we wanted a drink we could go up the street to a minimart for a bottle. Upholstery ripped off the back of... More

I normally am very flexible and okay with the hotels I stay in, however this hotel was not the best yet more average. The entrance area/lobby was clean and inviting making a good first impression. The rooms are a different story. While my room was decently clean, there were some questionable stains and the comforter looked dirty. The bathroom was... More

We spent four nights at Byron and the hotel proved good. Do not expect luxurious bedrooms, but DO expect hot water, a tasty breakfast and helpful receptionists! The first night there was a smell of "soup" along the corridors, but I guessed then we got used to it. Actually, we didn´t spend so much time at the hotel. IT´s two... More

My general rule while travelling in Europe is to subtract a star from hotel ratings to get the true North American rating. However in the case of the Byron hotel subtract 2 stars. This hotel relies on location only. The bathroom was filthy, the carpet was old and worn (wouldn't put our bags on it) and the mattress caused us... More

Stay away from this hotel. It is not a 3 star and in fact I'd not even give it a one star. It is dirty and so in need of repairs. We stayed four nights and would have been better off sleeping under a bridge. The bed was so uncomfortable and we didn't even want to cover ourselves with the... More

This is by far one of the worst and most terrifying hotels that i have ever walked into! My girlfriend and I were visiting Florence for a few days. When we walked into the hotel lobby it looked alright so I payed by credit card for 3 nights and the gentleman handed us a key and showed us the direction... More

I stayed in this hotel for 4 nights. As we came, the receptionist said that we dont have reservation. After 20 minutes came his boss and started to look for some papers about our reservation. He found it after 30 minutes. So we came to our room. We choose separate beds but when we came the beds were connected. They... More

One of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in. I have no idea how it earned 3 stars. The rooms haven't been painted in 40 years -- let alone renovated. Linens were stained, humidity stains covered the walls and ceilings, and there were bugs. The breakfast was mediocre at best. I have no idea how this place can bring... More

We arrived in the evening, having asked for a double room. We were given 2 single beds pushed together and the shower didn't work. When we complained to the receptionist he told us that they could fix it tomorrow. This wasn't any good, as we were leaving the next day. The receptionist didn't seem to care - very poor customer...

I recommend, it´s a simple Historic Old Hotel, with rooms large and clean. The breakfast is basic (not continental). The staff is very friendly, especially highlight the courtesy of Francesco of the reception. Good location, 2 min walk to the central train station and 10 minutes walk to the historic center.
