Location is great! Near the train station (approx 5 minutes’ walk with luggage). The superior room was spacious and clean; breakfast was pretty standard with toast, croissants, ham, cheese, cereals, juices, milk, coffee etc. They also offer free-flow of wine and cheese during happy hour daily (6.30pm-7.30pm). Appreciate the hotel's assistance to pre-book our visit to one of the museums.... More

The hotel is only a short walk from the train station and is a great location. Rooms were clean and staff were really friendly. Try the Italian Pizzeria next door, really good prices and great pizza!

This was a great base for our couple of days in Florence. It is an easy walk from the train station and right near some of the great Florence attractions. The street markets are just down the road. We had some great restaurant recommendations from the friendly staff and the hotel breakfast is very Italian and very good. My wife... More

We had a wonderful stay at the Globus. Staff was very freindly and helped us with our luggage up and down the steps. Breakfast was a great way to start the day. The room was large enough for the three of us and the bathroom was huge in European standards. Would stay again.

Was in florence for 4 days and stayed here for 3 nights! Location was close to train station, short walking distance away. So if you're travelling with luggage, this would be a good place. Although located in an alley, it feels pretty safe. All the places of interest are within walking distance! Hotel personnel were very friendly. As hotel lobby... More

Our room was pretty small. Just enough for 2 people to sleep and walk one at a time :) We knew our room would be small and since we stayed there just for 2 days , we were fine with it. More than anything, the bathroom was clean. We had paid around 80$ I think and it was worth it.... More

We arrived at Florence at around 7 in the evening. I stayed at this hotel again because of my previous stay last year. Since we were 4 in our group before, we had a different room. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the Firenze SMN station. Upon arriving, you have to pull your luggages up their stairs but... More

Dear jopetsy, Thank you very much for coming back after last year’s stay and for sharing your impressions. We’re sorry you were a little disappointed by the size of the room, this time, after your stay in a larger superior quadruple room last year; from your description I understand you booked a budget double room which is a small room...

This little hotel was a great surprise! It is positioned very close to the train station (just around the corner) and is right in the thick of the markets and restaurants. The rooms are quite small, we had a room with 2 single beds, but they were comfortable, well presented and the room was always very clean. The bathroom was... More

While overall we were happy with the room at this hotel, it did not look much like the pictures on the internet at all. Much darker, tile floors, smaller bed than it appears. We booked the most expensive level. But it was clean and nice. We had a problem with noise a couple of nights but used earplugs and that... More
