Santa Maria Novella hotels

Very welcoming, clean hotel a stone's throw from S Maria Novella train and bus station. Excellent staff. Room + ensuite adequate size and well-equipped. Breakfast as good as you get in Italy: ham, cheese, toast, rolls, croissants, jams, juice, fruit salad (tinned) tea/coffee etc. Although there is a lot of traffic in the morning, double glazing and shutters keep it out completely (Our room was on the front) Aircon provided - not needed in October when we were there. 10 mins walk from Duomo and city centre. Lots of little reasonable restaurants nearby, including one recommended by the hotel which was excellent. (the hotel gave us a 12% discount card)

Friendly, accommodating staff. Beautiful room with window that opens. Good window treatments with shutters to block the sun and street noise. Air conditioned. Less than 10 minutes to walk to the Santa Maria Novella train station. Close walking distance to historic sites, ristorante, mini supermarket, laundromat, leather markets etc Comfortable bed. Good spacious room with true Florentine feel. Bathroom has bidet and a corner shower. Nice continental breakfast, chocolate crepes and strong coffee to start the day. We stayed four nights and we will return to Marios when we return to Florence.

The hotel met our needs perfectly. We needed a hotel in close proximity to the Airport in Florence. The staff was very cordial and friendly and tried their best to help us in any way. The young lady at the front desk, Elena, was especially helpful in assisting us, printing out our boarding passes and giving us directions to the airport and nearby restaurants. The early a..m. continental breakfast was very nice, and we felt very comfortable leaving our luggage in the car overnight because of the secure parking. We would stay there again!

The hotel is right next to both the train and bus stations which is good, however the area around the stations is one of the less beautiful areas of florence. The rooms were fine nothing fancy, has all the basics... but above all the service was AMAZING!!!!! Its owned by a family, the grandmother is very friendly and the son is hard working, they really invited us in and answered all the questions we had, would definetly recommend this place.

Great hotel in an perfect location. Close to everything including the train station. Room was clean and spacious. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast had lots of options every morning. Would stay here again.

On arrival the lady who checked us in was very helpful and told us we had been upgraded from a standard to a luxury suite, so we were v excited to see the room. We had 2 bathrooms including a jacuzzi bath, a living room with an integrated kitchen and a good size bedroom & balcony. We also had a large complimentary bottle of water which is always nice. Both nights we went to the bar for drinks to take back to our suite - both times we had a very helpful bar-man called Sami who kindly brought them to our room. The only thing that could have been better was the gentlemen who checked us out early on Sunday morning, unfortunately his English was poor so it took quite some time to check out - apart from that it was a very pleasurable stay & we would definately go back, especially when it is across the road from Firenze SMN station!

This was a very nice quality hotel within 5 minutes of the Florence train station. They had a great breakfast and the room was relatively big in terms of European standards. I would highly recommend that you stay here is the hotel has everything that you need and is in close proximity to all of the major Florence sights.

On the whole a extremely good visit, saw all I wanted to see in Florence and because of being near all forms of transport, got to see Siena, Lucca, Pisa, Viareggio. Would have stayed longer sVerona

I staied in this hotel with my family during a visit of Florence and we were very happy
