“Great hotel in a great location”

The hotel service was excellent. The staff were very nice. The hotel was in a great location and very close to La Giostra -- a fantastic restaurant. We would definitely stay here again.

“Cozy Florentine Hotel-loved it!”

My husband and I really enjoyed staying at the J&J Hotel. The hotel was cozy and the staff were very friendly. My only complaint was that we had to get rid of our rental car as parking is very expensive and limited. The city does not allow cars, so as soon as you arrive to the hotel, the hotel staff have to call the police to tell them to erase your ticket which you will get as soon as you pass through the city walls with your car. The staff took care of the problem ASAP. Our room was very nice and located off of the court yard on the bottom floor. The bathroom was a little dark for appplying makeup but otherwise, no complaints. Breakfast was also very nice. Cheese, crossants, milk cereal and juice. I believe proscuitto as well and fresh fruit. The hotel was a conveniant walk into town. I read all of the reviews before I booked the hotel and I found the hotel very nice. I would stay there again. My husband is from Italy and also enjoyed the hotel with no complaints. Some might think the hotel is a little dark, but I really liked the decor and found it warm and cozy.

“Terrific Hotel”

The J & J is a terrific hotel. We stayed in Room No. 9 (a suite) and it was the biggest hotel room we have ever seen. The ceilings were about 14 feet high, and we could have fit many London-sized hotel rooms in the open spaces of this one. It has a huge bed, two love seats (one of which contained the second bed), fine exposed wooden beams in the ceiling and a claw-foot bathtub (the room has a shower as well). The breakfast was good, but didn't contain many choices. It was served in a lovely interior courtyard. The hotel is staffed 24 hours, and the employees are pleasant and helpful. It is an easy walk anywhere you want to go. The air conditioning was fantastic, which really mattered because the temperature was in the mid-30s throughout our stay. The hotel has parking in a lot across the street (at 30 euros per day), or there is a public garage nearby.

“Staff and Public Relations”

The staff were extremely accommodating and made sure that all of our inquiries were answered promptly. Our tours, calls for taxis, recommended restaurants, wake up calls etc. were all handled efficiently. There was always someone at the desk to help, answer questions or just to make short pleasant conversation with. (For example: When we came back to the hotel in the evening, the desk clerk would ask, "Did we enjoy our tour"?")

“Hotel with Character”

Perfectly positioned in a quiet street 5 minutes walk from the Duomo. The reception staff speak excellent English, and are very helpful. The restaurants they recommended were very good, and were all within easy walking distance (old Florence is not a place to take your car due to narrow streets and limited parking). Our deluxe room was large and very comfortable, and old frescoes on the walls and the vaulted ceilings in the public areas made this a unique place to stay. The little internal courtyard would be lovely to have breakfast in during the warmer months. If you like an extensive hot breakfast you will be disappointed, as there is only bacon & eggs, but there is a good cold buffet selection, and the fruit juice and coffee is good.

“Wonderful Service!”

My husband and I stayed at JJ this summer and found the staff to be extremely helpful. My suitcase was lost when we arrived in Florence and the staff made phone calls for us and helped us to figure out a way to get my bag. We forgot a very valuable item there when we left and they found it for us and held it until we could come and pick it up. Very friendly and trustworthy people and a beutiful hotel in close walking distance to everyplace we wanted to see.

“Very helpful and friendly”

The hotel is located in a rough-looking back road and from the outside didn't look so special. However, inside it is really lovely although a little dark in some passageways. Our room had a balcony leading to it which overlooked the outside courtyard. We had our breakfasts and drinks in this courtyard and it was very pretty with plants and other garden features (watch out for mosquitos when sitting outside). The hotel is in good walking distance from the major attractions (Il Duomo, Galleria d'Accademia (David), Santa Croce, etc). The staff were very helpful and spoke English. We had a minor problem - the door handle in our room came off the first morning (I had to call out to guests below to call staff to help - "Romeo wherefore art thou". But this matter was dealt with and the handle repaired quickly. We loved our room as it was comfortable, clean and had good air-conditioning. I would recommend this hotel and would stay there again if I ever go back to Florence.
