We stayed here in 2006, and returned to find that it is still very good value. Five minutes from the train station, and only 15 from the Duomo. San Lorenzo and Santa Maria Novella are even closer. This is a very good base for exploring Florence on foot. Even Altrarno is only 20 minutes away. Our room could have been... More

Marios Hotel is beautiful. Reception area is ornate with English speaking staff. The room took my breath away with its charm and space. Located in the ideal situation for Dan Brown fans and art enthusiasts alike. Breakfast was a great start to the day with chocolate crepes and strong coffee. We stayed for four nights. We will return to this... More

Hotel Mario is a short walk away from the Train Station...you can walk anywhere from the hotel...so location was great. The room was big for Europe standards...and the bathroom was big. Shower was very small though! For a 250 pounder like me that is a challenge...but for a smaller person it should be ok I guess. Breakfast in the morning... More

Our 4th hotel on our European swing, and finally one we had some space to turn around in. Hooks to hang items, shelving, all nicely arranged and convenient. (our room, anyways) Loved it! The WiFi was pretty up-and-down, and breakfast was nice if nothing spectacular. But very conveniently located to the train station and an easy walk to the sights.... More

Super close to train station, great espresso, friendly staff, adequate breakfast, allowed us to bring our own wine and cheese to lobby to share with friends, homey and comfortable, wifi included (although spotty from room), good book selection - clean rooms, hard beds, not so comfortable (sorry).

Just stayed at Hotel Mario's for the second time and again felt so welcome with their friendliness and efficiency. The location is - as described - very comfortable and close to all major attractions, and it does seem for the traveller to stay amongst "real" Florentine People - whoever does not mind being part of real Italian City life -...

Close to Train station and very clean But No Wifi!!! That was one of the main reasons for booking this Hotel and we were staying for 2 nights, breakfast was very disappointing! although they say breakfast was served until 10am when we went at 9.15 there was hardly anything left and staff were not helpful at all. Our bedroom was... More

We stayed at this hotel recenly and had somewhat different experience than other travelers have had. The hotel is very close to Firenze S.M.N and very convenient for traveling. The best thing on this hotel is the price. However, I had a lot more negative impressions than positive ones on this hotel. The room we stayed did not have a... More

The staff at hotel Marios were very accommadating, the room was clean, the breakfast was definately worth the five euros, and the location was perfect! If you are entering Florence from the train terminal it is a five minute walk and is close to the center of town. The price was reasonable.
