Top Arcetri Observatory Hotel Reviews

Hotel La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio

8/10 Good

"First time in Italy and what a great introduction to Florence with this great hotel in the middle of this vibrant city. The staff was fun and amazing giving good advice where to dine at traditional restaurants that is walking distance. The best part is the upstairs indoor outdoor breakfast area with good selection of pastry, eggs, bacon etc even fresh honeycomb honey u can spoon it right out. In the evening outdoor terrace serves drinks and cocktail overlooking the city of Florence for a beautiful sunset. The elevator was a bit small and if u took the stairs was a little confusing but that was part of the charm and character of this hotel that made it special. I truly felt like i was experiencing Italy in this hotel and that's what makes traveling most enjoying."

Bernini Palace

10/10 Excellent

"All fantastic"

Hotel Albani Firenze

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at Hotel Albani. It's a touch of old school elegance, which might seem a little fussy to some. We found the room to be clean and comfortable. Some folks might enjoy the ginormous TV. We usually skip hotel breakfasts in the States, but the breakfast at Hotel Albani was excellent. Only negative was that we probably needed an in-service as to how the shower functioned; we had weak showers before figuring it out."

Hotel Santa Maria Novella

10/10 Excellent

"We loved it. Highly recommend"

Hotel Lungarno - Lungarno Collection

8/10 Good

"Location is excellent but if you’re driving in that area it’s probably best to get a taxi as the parking garage is on the right side of a T junction one a one way road!! Room is comfortable but please check type of room as you book as we had a room with no views! Breakfast buffet is awesome. Would recommend the hotel as long as you are willing to pay the extra money for it"

Art Hotel Villa Agape

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel, spacious rooms and helpful staff. Especially the people at breakfast and lunch :) the shower could use a little pressure and the hand shower leaks. We also asked to switch out our complimentary champagne bottle for something non alcoholic as we dont drink. But nothing happened. Other than that, good experience!"

Hotel Horto Convento

10/10 Excellent

"Love it"

Plus Florence - Hostel

10/10 Excellent
