A charming hotel in a wonderfully convenient location. Super spacious room with huge loft and patio. Our room had lots of personality with brick wall, painted furniture, iron staircase and french doors opening out to a patio area. The bath was modern and large - bright, clean and lots of towels and toiletries. The front desk staff has helpful and... More

We stayed Hotel Alba for 3 nights. We originally booked 2 rooms for 3 girls for a month ago through the booking.com, after we decided to change the booking to 1 triple room and extend one more day in Florence. We exchanged emails to modify our booking directly with the hotel and they replied us so quickly for our alteration.... More

The hotel is very clean and comfortable, and the location is excellent. It is close to the SMN and within walking distance to the shopping street and historical sites. Breakfast buffet is free and it is served in a very nice courtyard. More

The hotel has been chosen because of good responses on tripadvisor and I haven't been disappointed. The hotel is very conveniently located from SMN, especially if you with luggage. The hotel personnel is very kind and benevolent. Our room TWN was the small size, but cozy and convenient. Windows left directly on street della Scala which is enough recovered for... More

We stayed in the hotel for 3 nights. This is very close to the main train station S.M. Novella. Our stay was good but what really disappointed me is that the breakfast is very poor, very limited amount and they re-fill the finished items not adequately even sometime they never re-fill. The waitress during the breakfast would never bother to... More

Located close to the train and bus stations, so very easy to walk with your luggage. Walkable (if you like to walk a lot) to the sites of Florence. Located in safe neighborhood. Clean room, like a US Hampton Inn. Reasonable complimentary breakfast. Value ok (not great, not horrible) for the money. 24 hour concierge service. More

Santa Maria novella train station is just two blocks from the hotel. It is also a short and pleasant walk to the duomo And leather market. There... More

This by far was the best hotel we stayed in Italy. It was clean, had some cute unique features in the room and the common spaces and was in a safe central location. You are literally 2 blocks from the train station and a 5 min walk from the duomo. The breakfast was the largest we had in all of... More
