“Recommend Highly”

The De Rose Palace Hotel in Firenze was extremely comfortable and in a very quiet neighborhood close to the opera house. A short walk across the Arno puts you in the Oltrarno area which is less tourist-populated than in the heart of town. The staff of the De Rose were very friendly and accomodating. If you are looking for an attractive and comfortable place to stay, this is it!

“Would Definitely Go Back”

The hotel staff was wonderful. The room and bathroom were spacious and clean. The hotel is an easy walk from Santa Maria Novella train station and is within walking distance to most of the major sights. The neighborhood was quiet, but had a nice selection of restaurants and cafes. Take the time to stroll down the path by the Arno River.

“great hotel-great service”

the hotel staff went out of their way to be helpfull in all things. they were friendly, courteous, and professional in all things despite the very low price of the room.I highly recomend them and would definately not hesitate to stay there again.

“First Class in Florence”

In a quiet location and very safe next to the American Consulate. Room was excellent, Murano Glass chandeliers, towels changed twice a day. Friendly and helpful staff. About 20 mins from central tourist Florence and about 10 mins from train and bus/coach station. Well recommended

“Definitely recommend it”

We were a bit overwhelmed with the choices for hotels in Florence, so we took a chance with De Rose. We found it to be just the type of cozy home away from home we needed during our first trip to Florence. It is on the outskirts of the city center, but close enough to be within walking distance from all the important sights. We especially loved the decor.

“Comfortable oasis - great choice-definitely would stay again.”

Very friendly staff with very adequate English-spacious room-very comfortable-good shower.Located 15 minutes walk from main Rail station(need a map though) or short taxi ride. 20 minute walk along the river to historic Florence-Pont de Vecchio-Statue of David etc. Good breakfast buffet(continental).Great value for money.No complaints.

“Very favorable stay”

The hotel personnel were most gracious, friendly and helpful. It was very much like staying in a Bed and Breakfast. Only a block from the Arno River and a 15 minute walk to most of the Florence highlights. We were able to walk everywhere! We felt very safe and comfortable for the 4 days of our stay.

“Florence Hotel”

The Grand Hotel Rose Palace is a 20 minute walk to the Ponte Vecchio and the center of Florence. For those who need it, there is also a supermarket a few blocks away. the continental breakfast was good and there is a bar in the lobby if you need a pick me up. My only quible is that there is only a shower stall and it's not very large; but I managed.

“hotel review”

They were very helpful and friendly and very accommodating.

“A very good location in my opinion”

The hotel staff was very friendly, very helpful and all spoke English. The location was a very nice 10 minute stroll down the Arno river, and was very quiet at night compared to others in the historic center. It was very hot when we went to Florence. There was no AC in the hotel common areas, but the room was comfortable and the proximity to the river made opening the window at night a pleasant relief. A jacuzzi in the room was an added benefit. The breakfast buffet was continental in size but was good enough to get the day started. Overall, we had a great time.
