Top Arcetri Observatory Hotel Reviews

Hotel Albani Firenze

10/10 Excellent

"."

Hotel Santa Maria Novella

10/10 Excellent

"We loved it. Highly recommend"

Hotel La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel in a fantastic location, walkable to everything. Staff was warm and helpful. We were upgraded to a suite on check-in and our room could not have been better - spacious, well-maintained, and super comfortable. Would absolutely stay here again."

The Social Hub Florence Belfiore

8/10 Good

"Staff is too young and untrained in hospitality to provide a solid experience, felt like student workers with little supervisors there to actually help them. Advertises with free laundry but you can only run one tiny machine at a time and one of them left my laundry smelling worse making me have to double-wash it. All of it gets run through their own app you have to create an account for, just to use a washing machine during your two-night stay. BAD USE OF HIGH TECH. Room was spacious and clean but bathroom shower floods the rest of the floor. Hallways smelled like meals microwaved by the study-abroad students. Interesting concept, solid rooms, poorly executed."

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

"The place is clean and the city centre is walkable."

Hotel Paris

8/10 Good

"Old, unique hotel with a lot of stairs and a small, slow elevator. Our room was huge, but the laminate floor near the bathroom gave when we waled on it, felt like we might fall through. Location is great, between Santa Maria and the Duomo. Very easy to navigate from."
