It is easy to find and near Santa Maria Novella Station. McDonalds, cafes, bakery, shops and the City Tour bus are nearby. There is a Halal food shop in the next street. The cozy little room is nicely furnished with terracotta flooring. The toilet has heated bars to keep your towels warm. The breakfast room is pretty and nice and... More

We had a fairly large room with our own terrace. Room was clean but the bed was hard as a rock. Did not know the trick to flushing the toilet was to press the button not once but 5 times rapidly. Figured that out when the house keeping person was cleaning the bathroom on day 3 of our visit. The... More

The room was not very clean. There was always some unpleasant smell in the lobby and the corridor.

Hotel Sempione is the ideal place to stay in Florence. It s close to everywhere, the S M Novella train and bus station (5 mins walk) , Duomo (10 mins walk) ,San Lorenzo Market (2 mins walk) and quite a few restaurants and trattorias and bars. The designer shops are also within (15-20 mins walk) and close to the hotel... More

Great little hotel, and handily placed for the treasures of central Florence. Within easy walking distance of the Duomo, Uffizi gallery, San Lorenzo, Accademia, and the railway station. Been there 4 times. Always found the staff friendly and helpful. Rooms and shower-rooms clean. Great base for exploring Florence.

We stayed here for 5 nights in September after reading many TA reviews. This hotel is a 5 minute walk from the SMN station and pretty close to most attractions. The room was clean and spacious, and the breakfast was a good sized buffet. Though the internet is free, we had to take a new access card each day (minor... More

We stayed 2 nights in the "Sempione". The location is perfect for trips into the old city centre and it is very close to the main station. Car parking is organized with a garage "somewhere" out of the center. You have to give away your key (and your car :-o)). The hotel is clean, the personnel is very friendly. The... More
