We stayed at Globus Hotel for our one night stay in Florence. The service at the front desk was excellent. We left our bags when we arrived because our room was not yet ready (we arrived around 11 am). We we returned our bags had kindly been placed in our room for us. The room was pretty small (we got...

This is my third of three nights in May of 2013. Location is great. The staff is amazingly friendly and very helpful with any questions. Rooms are small but clean and nice. Showers have decent pressure with good hot temperature water. Very happy with the stay here and quality of hotel.

We had a great experience at the hotel. It is a short walk from the train station and you can walk everywhere else in the city as well. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were average size for Europe, and you are one floor (or more) off the street in kind of a side street so it... More

Talk about value for money... Every penny you spend is surely worth it. Stayed at room 305 for 3 nights during mid-April. We had to climb a flight of stairs to get to the reception from the entrance, but the man at the desk came down to help us with our luggage (he must have seen us on the security... More

The Globus Hotel is literally a hidden gem and far from 'Mediocre' considering its location and value for money.It's ideal for the budget or price conscience traveller searching for the right balance between cost, location and comfort. The rooms are compact, bijou, clean, fresh with extra linen and pillows. My room was at the back of the hotel overlooking Medici... More

The Globus is not a great hotel; the rooms are extremely small and there's no elevator to get to the lobby in the 2nd floor -and from there up there's the slowest, weirdest elevator I've ever seen. That said, it's reasonably priced considering Florence standards. Service was truly excellent and the location is also great, a few minutes walk from... More

As many of the reviews here have said the hotel is incredibly well located a very short walk from the train station and close to everything. The room is small but then you're out and about all day so perfect for what it's intended for (sleeping!). The happy hour is from 6.30pm where they lay out wine and nibbles for... More

After traveling around England and Ireland with a friend, I flew to Florence solo, my first time traveling alone abroad. I studied abroad in Florence 3 years ago so I know the city pretty well but was still nervous about traveling solo. The staff at Hotel Globus were great- so helpful and kind. The location is to die for, right... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Florence because of the Globus hotel. Whenever we needed anything, we only had to ask. The staff was SO helpful with information about Florence; there was always someone available to answer questions and make us feel like we had a home away from home. Hot tea was always available. Breakfast was great. The "Happy... More
