“Very nice hotel in perfect location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

people found this review helpful

Having never stayed at a Best Western I didn't know what to expect. Ther reviews here were good and the location was right so we tried it. I'm happy to report the hotel was very nice, nothing opulent of course, but no complaints at all. The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room and common areas were clean and well kept, and the free breakfast was fine.
Some of the complaints here must have been fixed since we had no issues at all. The wifi requires a code that the front desk provides and it was very useful when we returned to the room each night to catch up with friends and family.

“Very practical hotel, great value in an awesome location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

This hotel delivers the mid-budget traveler's essential needs. It does not have a full service restaurant. Breakfast is self-serve continental + quite good. You can't beat the location. Super clean and ALL the rooms are spacious. I have traveled to Florence for business at least once per year for more than 8 years. Unless I have a short 1-2 day trip where I stay close to the airport, I always come to this hotel. It is basically, two and a half blocks from the Duomo, around the corner from the San Lorenzo Market, 5-10 minute walk to the train station, 10-15 minute walk to the Ponte Vecchio.

Room Tip: Here are my favorite rooms in order of preference ... 606, 603, 704, 703

“Want to go back”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 January 2012

people found this review helpful

We loved our visit in Florence! Our room was large and comfortable and the view from our window was fantastic.
The very best part of our stay was dinner on the roof top. The food was great and the only regret that I have is that we do not have the name of our waiter/host......he was wonderful!
We felt very pampered, along with our dinner we were given a few little extra treats to taste,
some information on local wines....it was just the best dinner ever!
Very relaxing, friendly....would LOVE to go back.
The hotel is in the perfect location.

We stayed here for our visit to Pitti Uomo and arrived by train coming from Milan. Walking distance from the railway station and very well located in the city center, everything is on walking distance. The room was clean and the view from the terrace is very nice! Breakfast buffet was ok and there were some wine tastings as well on certain evenings. All in all a very nice hotel, good location and we will definitely go back there when in Florence!
