I became aware of this place through Rick Steves' "Italy" guide book. We are so glad that we stayed there. Parking in any Italian city is a nightmare for those who are not familiar with the layout, and it can be VERY costly. If you bring a car to Casa Santo... as we did, you will be able to park... More

This is a very nice place to stay. My single room was twice the size of other b and b and small hotel rooms I have stayed in in Europe. The public rooms are so lovely and inviting with beautiful furniture. The elevator worked perfectly and was an asset. Lovely wool blankets wer just the thing on cool nights in... More

A bit of an institutional feel but, nice large rooms. Quiet. Cheerful, multi-lingual front desk staff.

This working convent is located in the "locals" part of Florence which my daughter and I loved. Large, very clean rooms with beautiful gardens to walk through or sit with a book. The nuns are friendly and run a professional, affordable get away. Truly an unforgettable stay.

Located on Piazza del Carmine in Florence, this convent lodging is not for those who want to be pampered or like to stay in the touristy section of the city. For the rest of us, this is the perfect place to stay. I led a group of 22 that used this as the base for our five-day stay in Florence.... More

Our family of five stayed in a very large room with five twin beds and a private, locked bathroom down the hall. The room had a very high ceiling painted with a beautiful mural. The nuns were great, and the building was fascinating, with a very interesting history. Breakfast was typical for bed and breakfast places in Italy, but certainly... More

We were travelling with our 2 teenage daughters and a six year old and our room was a 5 single bed dormitory with a private bathroom. The accommodation was very basic but clean and nice. It is a working convent housed in a beautiful old building surrounded by lovely gardens. The nuns and all the staff were very friendly and... More

We stayed at the Casa Santo Nome di Gesu for 8 nights this summer. The Casa is beautiful with lovely private gardens. Our room was large and immaculate with a bathroom and shower. It was very quiet, as our room overlooked the garden and we had a view of the local church dome in the distance. At night the dome... More
