Plaza Hotel Lucchesi

10/10 Excellent

"This is a lovely hotel, great quality hotel well situated with around 10 mins walk to the main hub of activity. So, so good to have the option of the roof top area to relax at, with a cool pool after a day of walking and sight seeing in the heat, not to be underestimated. The room was spacious, air con great as was the shower. Nice view of the river and close to the steps across by bridge for lovely views on high of the City. Staff attentive, professional and efficient and with a friendly welcome. Concierge was helpful and likeable. We loved the extras, bar drinks came with snacks and coffee came with a quaint glass pot of scrummy biscuits. Cocktails from the inside bar were delectable, with the bar staff taking real pride in their work. Breakfast was very good, sausages and bacon were great, plenty of other options as well, endless cappuccino etc to order. The only negative point, though not major, is that the roof top lounger area was privately booked for non hotel residents from 7pm every night, so we had to move to the restaurant tables or bar stools, which were not as comfortable. However, the views from the roof across the City are magic, no matter where you sat..so a minor grip only. Book, its lovely"

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed 3 nights and our entire stay was wonderful. We ate breakfast every morning and it was consistently well stocked and delicious, with many options. We used the spa amenities as well and we had the entire area to ourselves! It was so peaceful and relaxing. The front desk staff was super helpful and friendly. Overall, this was definitely a great experience and we would recommend this stay to couples looking for a good location in the center of Florence with free breakfast and a boutique hotel feel."

Residenza D'Epoca Historia Luxury

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! Even though we arrived a bit late, communication with the staff through WhatsApp was excellent and very helpful. The young lady who welcomed us was incredibly kind. The room was spacious, comfortable, and very clean. The location was absolutely perfect — very close to the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, the Uffizi Gallery, and even the Accademia Gallery where the David is located. We were able to explore almost all of Florence walking from the hotel, which made our trip so easy and enjoyable. Very comfortable stay and highly recommended!"

Hotel Arno Bellariva

2/10 Terrible

"Booked this place for 3 nights as it had parking which was the only good thing about it but still came at a cost on top of the overpriced cost for the room. The reception smelt, the guy on reception was monotone and looked like he wanted to be there less than we did. Taken to our room and was very dated and smelt worse than the reception so we checked out within 10 minutes of our arrival. Considering the price there is alot of other options around that would be better. We realised we may not get a refund for the 1st day as we had entered the room(nothing used) but asked about a refund for the 2nd & 3rd night. Reception told me to speak to who I booked it through (Expedia) spoke to Expedia via email and they checked with the hotel but no complaint was filed at the hotel. Hotel tells me to speak to Expedia, Expedia says no complaint at the hotel, point fingers at each other and then offered £50 compensation. I would have preferred the £350 they wanted for the last 2 nights."
