Travellers' Choice
The Florence Hotel Orto de' Medici’s location is ideal because while located in the “historic center” of Florence it is just outside the noisy hustle and bustle…which is only a short walk away. When walking through our hotel in Florence, you really do feel like you are in a classic and upscale historic building. The front desk staff is very helpful and friendly, and from the moment you arrive you are made to feel very welcome. Each room is uniquely and elegantly appointed, a restful oasis for the busy traveler. The bathroom is very spacious and the shower is wonderful after a long day of sightseeing. Breakfast, with plenty to select from, is served in a cozy room that spills out into a welcoming patio and a beautiful little garden. The hotel lobby and reading rooms are a nice place to relax after a full day of sightseeing (plus free internet - either wifi or with brand new Apple computers).

Hotel's Favourite
My husband and I stayed in a few very nice hotels during our recent tour of Italy, but this place was our favorite. Be sure to read your packet from the hotel when you arrive in your room; you'll discover you are staying in the footprint of Bertoldo's former school for young artists - attended by a teenage Michelangelo. Every aspect of our stay was delightful. The front desk staff were very kind and helpful, as were the very sweet and swift breakfast attendants and the bartender, who offered us a complimentary welcome drink on the raised porch overlooking the lovely courtyard. Our room was comfortable and quiet, despite its location on a main thoroughfare of the city that led to many famous attractions and wonderful eateries. We thought the place was just beautiful, and made many indelible memories there.…

Excellent location (walking distance to all the sights, shops, and best restaurants, yet not in the heart of the busyness). Staff was incredibly helpful and the free breakfast was delicious. The room was nice and big and always cleaned to perfection while we were out and about.

We stayed in four different hotels in Italy and this was by far the best. Clean, extremely friendly, accessible, and great accommodations. This hotel ended up being gold standard from our trip, which we compared all others to. I would implore everyone to book a stay here.

Couldn’t recommend a better hotel to stay at. As a couple we love Florence and this hotel made the holiday that little bit better, the rooms are so clean and exactly what we wanted for our mini break. Breakfast is lovely and plenty to choose from, anything we needed they were happy to accommodate…… we will definitely be back.

We were looking for a centrally located hotel and found this one when booking a short four night break in Florence on lastminute.com. Whilst booking a hotel that you don’t know can be something of a lottery, it seems that we really chose well on this occasion. The welcome and attention from the reception staff, in particular from the lovely Alazne, was perfect. Our ground floor room with garden view could not be faulted. Breakfast was more than adequate with attentive staff to make sure that we didn’t miss out on all that was on offer. Alazne helped us with choices of places to visit and booking restaurants and taxis for us. All in all, a great find.

The staff at the hotel was excellent. They happily took care of our every need. The hotel was in a great location and the room was bigger than most European hotels. And the breakfast was plentiful and very good. I definitely recommend this hotel if you’re visiting Florence.
