“All here-close to train, Duomo, free Internet”

We were SO pleased with this hotel! Ambience, beautiful tile floors, ceilings, free Internet, great breakfast-even though it was included with the room, staff came by to refill our coffe, bring us hot milk, etc. Overall, great service, so close to train station and Duomo, couldn't ask for more. And the free Internet, woo hoo. Quiet too, no trouble dropping off to sleep. Shower in our room was amusing-next to the nice deep tub, but shower had no walls.

“Very nice”

Porta Faenza Hotel is conveniently near the train station and within walking distance to the Florence highlights. Our room was very nice. The desk staff spoke pretty good English. A restaurant a few doors down, the "Enzo E Piero" was very good and reasonably priced. If we go back to Florence we would definitely stay at the Porta Faenza.

“Wonderful Florentine hotel”

We loved the way the hotel was decorated. The breakfast was the best we had (compared to those in 3 other hotels) in our three week trip to Italy.

“great little hotel”

great little hotel to explore Italy. The staff were exceptionally helpful, the rooms were clean and the breakfast was excellent, My wife had her bag stolen on the last night of our stayand the hotel staff were a great help. We would definitely go back. Also Florence is beautiful.

“A good place to stay”

I stayed at the hotel with my wife and two teenage daughters. We had a comfortable room and found the hotel a good base to explore the city on foot. The road it is on leads directly in to the centre of the city but is far enough out of the centre to be away from the crowds. The girls voted Florence the best Italian city they have visited which means they prefered it to Rome and Venice and they liked both of them a lot.

“great place to stay”

just on the edge of the central attractions core area, an easy 10-15 minute walk, and with the market, station and local shops for water, etc nearby, this is a great place to stay. The hotel has a distinct historic flavour, with local artefacts dotted around in alcoves and plenty of glass colour windows - my camera was in use on the interior - how many hotels would prompt that? Above all the staff were without exception friendly and happy to help, there is (one) free internet point near reception, the room was big (4 adults), a/c effective and the breakfast excellent.

“perfect place to stay”

so close to everything - warm and welcoming staff. Loved it!

“A nice touch!”

Very comfortable, centrally located with enthousiastic helpful staff. Shortly after our arrival, a tap on outr door revealed a young lady with a tray containing a small bottle of wine, two glasses and assorted chocolates! We had arrived on my birthday which they realized from our passports at check-in. Many of the better restaurants in the area were closed on Sunday.

“Comfort and Convenience in Firenze”

We spent four nights here in May 2005. The room and bath were good sized and comfortable. Everything was within walking distance. The 24 hour staff was always helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

“Great hotel!”

My girlfriend and I stayed at this hotel for 5 nights and we both highly recommend it. The staff were very friendly, the rooms are spotlessly clean and comfortable, the hotel has a nice character about it, and the breakfast was good. All-in-all we would highly recommend this hotel and would stay there again ourselves. Great hotel.
