Porta al Prato, Florence Hotel Rooms at the Independent

The room we had was excellent, even having a shared bathroom it was good. The place is close to most of the areas of interest so we never had to take a bus. Breakfast provided was good and staff was always friendly.

Wonderful hotel, close to historical centre, very close to SMN Firenze train station, generous breakfast, bedroom and bathroom just like on the photos.

Florence is small city, so you can reach any attracts by walk. Therefore, comfortable and clean, and nice staff are good criterion to determine accomodation in Florence. This apartment is perfect for 4people family. It is very clean and cozy, and many facility including kitchen are well equipped, so that convenient to stay for family. The staff of this apartment is really nice guy and supportive.

Pros: Owner was wonderful and accommodating. He allowed us to check in early and stored our luggages (free of charge) after we checked out since our train was not until later. He made the best cappuccino! Breakfast was delicious with lots of option. Internet was sometime spotty but overall good. Room was a good size for two. Towels were plush. Soap and shampoo was good quality. Location was great and within walking distance to main train station (15 min) and to major sightseeing places. Cons: blow dryer was a bit outdated Misc: bring mosquito repellant since hotel is by water We had a lovely time at this hotel and the owner was wonderful. We highly recommend and would return.

Comfortable, clean and charming. Nothing was lacking and it was extremely well priced so we were very pleased with our choice. Some people talked about being moved to another location but this was not our experience so I can't speak to this.

There are no words to describe how amazing Massimo was. He made reservations for museums, he changed them in short notice, he made restaurant reservations, he told us everything the was to know.... simple amazing. All the time he was alone since his wife was away on a visit but despite all that he did a perfect job running the place.

Great hotel in a quiet area, not far from atractions

I travelled around Italy with my eight year old boy and partner. The Luna guest house was the best place we stayed. The room was clean, comfortable and the owner, Ricardo, was an outstanding host. In our arrival he took the time to point out on a map all the places we should see, opening times and recommendations, the best places to eat and the best ice cream! He clearly loves the city and his enthusiasm shone through. This all gave the guesthouse a lovely relaxed feel. My eight year old was jumping out of bed in the morning to go for breakfast and a chat with Ricardo. It is five-ten mins from the train station and the centre/river. I wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else in Florence.

Amazing roof terrace with gorgeous views, nice little pool. Good breakfast selection. Staff couldn't be more helpful. Very pleased with our choice of hotel, would stay again.
