This hotel was at a great location, maybe 20 steps from Ponte Vecchio and close to everything else too. Beautiful room, very clean, really nice staff, great breakfast buffet with lots of choices, good wifi connection, well priced considering the location. We would definitely go back to stay there if we were to return to Florence.

Just back from five nights in Florence and stayed at the Pitti Palace Hotel that is literally 15 foot from the end of the Ponte Vecchio. All main sights were walkable and we discovered some wonderful places to eat off the beaten track too. Rooms were good size, i went with my best mate and there was sufficient hanging/storage in...

The hotel is in a great location, right next to Ponte Vecchio and right down the street from Pitti Palace. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The hotel had reasonable prices. Breakfast was average/below average and there was a moldy smell, almost sewage-like coming from the drains. We closed the drains and filled the tub will water to block... More

At 20 paces from the south side of the Ponte Vecchio, this hotel was perfect for our 4 days in Florence. We were very close to all of the main attractions - the Uffizi Gallery, Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens, the Duomo - and, of course, the famous bridge! Our room was very comfortable, clean and (surprisingly) quiet and the... More

It's location is not in the center of the city, but very accessible to all the local sites and restaurants. The rooms were small, but nice. There is a small... More

Excellent value hotel with a superb location. I stayed for four days last September and am currently planning a return stay in May. A simple but perfectly adequate cold buffet breakfast eaten while relaxing on a terrace with an unforgettable view. Located steps from the Ponte Vecchio. Within 5-10 minutes stroll of the hotel are many excellent wine bars and... More
