We stayed one night at this hotel in Florence. It was a perfect location for us - quiet, but within walking distance to all the sights in the centre of Florence. The rooms are small - by North American standards, but perfectly adequate. The bed was firm. Hotel staff were helpful and polite, though not particularly friendly. Breakfast is included,... More

Well, this is a large big hotel with many rooms but lack a feel of its own. I failed to put it under any categories ..neither leisure nor business hotel..It has many rooms, with some strange lay-out of rooms,.... With banquet rooms thrown in between,...You will encounter some oddly-placed lifts....One might gets lost in this maze !! 1. This hotel... More

Location: If you enjoy walking, this hotel is about a 20-25 minute walk to the Florence city centre, or a 12 minute bus ride away. The walk is right along the Arno River, and quite enjoyable. Hotel Comfort: Comfortable rooms, air-conditioned, free wi-fi and bf included. This is a very generic (>100 room) hotel, and has no vibe to it,... More

I just returned from a tour across Italy that included this hotel and it's sister hotel in Rome, the Grand Palantino. Having completed this tour a few years ago, I returned with my daughter to find both hotels renovated and glowing. I was pleased with the rooms, service, and breakfast. As travelers we must include the hotel as part of... More

The positives are that the hotel looks modern from the outside and has a fancy foyer. The breakfast is fabulous, lots of variety and good quality food. It just seems ridiculous that this can be rated 4 star based on the standard of the rooms. They're small and just extremely basic, tired looking, view overlooking the car park. It's be... More

Our group of 7 had a very nice experience here. The hotel has modern decor and the rooms are a good size, especially when you consider the usual size of European hotels. The rooms are very neat and clean and the bathroom facilities are modern and immaculate. There is free wifi and it worked reasonably well in the room. The... More

Compared to our hotel in Rome (Fortyseven), this hotel fell short. The room itself was not bad and had free wifi which is great but the walls were paper thin. The staff was not very friendly, the breakfast was not very good. The location was ok although it was a bit of a walk to the center (1.2 miles from... More

The hotel rooms were nice and clean, with a modern bathroom with a tub. The location is great along the river only a few minutes walk from the city center. During the time we were there, they were renovating the lobby, and it was quite loud and crowded with big tour groups. The really bad thing you can say about... More
