We stayed for two nights, and everything was fantastic, as the other reviewers have said, until... we were packing up and I realized that one of my favorite scarfs had disappeared from the chair it was hanging on. No doubt about it. Very disappointing.

This hotel is a cute little family run place on a quiet side street a few blocks from Duomo. It is very convenient to everything in the historic center of town and there are a lot of good restaurants located nearby. We enjoyed our stay and the staff was great.

This hotel is really good value for you money! Large and nice rooms, clean and really friendly staff. They have a really good location, only about 2 min walk from Il duomo. The breakfast was italian style but ok, their only downside is that the hotel is on the 3rd floor without elevator. I loved our stay, I could easily... More

We looked forward to staying at the Hotel Cardinal in Florence as it was recommended in a prominent guide book. We knew that it was a three flight walk up but when we got there the stairs were very steep and narrow...quite a burden if you have a heavy bag. After climbing the stairs we were shown the breakfast room... More

This hotel was very nice. The rooms were a nice size and very clean. They had a nice continental breakfast and the woman at the front desk was extremely helpful. She booked tours for us, made restaurant reservations, and made recommendations for places to eat. The location was great-just a short walk to the Duomo and train station. The only... More

My friend and I booked a room online at Hotel Cardinal. We booked a double room by mistake, while we actually wanted one with 2 twin beds. We asked to change when we got there. The lady at the hotel was extremely helpful and tried really hard to find us one without success, since everything else is taken, and called... More

Hotel Cardinal of Florence is all about your expectations. If you're looking for a quiet and comfortable place to lay your head at night, in the middle of the city, convenient to good bars and restaurants, and with few amenities, you'll leave very happy. If instead you're looking for freebies in the bathroom, a home-cooked breakfast, top-to-bottom cleanings every day,... More

Too many flights of stairs for one. We stayed for three nights and the towels were never changed out. There was only a glass bottle of hand soap at the sink and no soap in the shower. The room was extremely small. The breakfast was lacking. Each day the choices were slimmer and the quality poorer. The staff, however was... More

This is a great hotel. Located in the city centre and near St. Croce allows you to walk everywhere. A very quite hotel. Check in was easy and the staff were very friendly and helpful. A nice breakfast is included. The linen towels were a surprise treat. I stayed for eight days and would return to this hotel. The only... More

The friendliest staff we had during our trip to Italy. Very clean rooms. Also very roomy considering we had a triple. Excellent location on the eastside of central Florence, but then again almost all hotels in Florence are close to the center since the city is so small. Breakfast was the best here and again the staff was very friendly.... More
