Wow, what a wonderful location directly on the Piazza della signoria. We stayed in the apartments/suites and they were wonderful. They were very large, with a fully appointed kitchen. Breakfast was delivered to our room every morning. The staff was very helpful and went above and beyond to help with anything we needed. The beds area a bit hard, but... More

We were amazed at what a great location we had! We were literally across the Piazza form the Uffizi and in the center of all the action. The walls are a little thin but when you close the windows it is utterly quiet. Marcello was a great help with making us reservations for the museums and suggesting where to go... More

This B&B has much to recommend it, but there are a number of little drawbacks which may or may not matter to the individual traveller. Positives: The rooms are comfortably furnished and the water pressure in the shower was fine. The location can’t be beat; most of the main attractions are a short walk away. The train station is only... More

A dream vacation in Italy can't be obtained without a stay at this lovely pension! We can't say enough about the beautifully appointed room in this very central location...Piazza della Signoria...with views of the Palazzo Vecchio. The staff, Bobby & Natalia, showed us such hospitality and care that we felt as if we staying with friends at their lovely home.... More

We were very satisfied and even surprised by the cozy, luxurious room and beautiful bath at La Casa del Garbo. We found it to be an excellent value, and the location must be one of the best in Florence. The staff was warm and helpful and made us feel very welcome. We plan to stay there again to continue touring... More

We were after accomodation central to the Republican Piazza and chose La Casa del Garbo. While expensive, it did deliver on quality on every level. The rooms were exquisite, really luxurious. The staff were warm, sincere and very helpful even assisting with an unexpected trip to the doctors. The service staff could not do enough to help. The breakfast was... More

My wife and I spent a week in Florence and found Casa del Garbo via Tripadvisor. The room was great. They brought us breakfast every morning. The concierge was extremely helpful. The very best part of the hotel is the location. We walked all day and inevitably found ourselves in this part of town. So, if we needed to change... More

We stayed there one night in January, and it was nothing short of perfect. The room was charming, located in a typical old florentine building where they have kept the charm of the past times, yet modernised all the facilities, which are top standard. Rooms exquisitely furnished. The location could not be better, as you are in the very middle... More
