Top Arcetri Observatory Hotel Reviews

Hotel Paris

10/10 Excellent

"We loved it!!"

Bernini Palace

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful location, peaceful in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the city. Super attentive staff."

Hotel Delle Nazioni

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was perfect. Close to the station and all the bars/restaurants."

Plaza Hotel Lucchesi

10/10 Excellent

"I had a fantastic stay at Plaza Hotel Lucchesi. The hotel is beautiful, the location along the Arno is excellent, and my room was comfortable with a wonderful view of Florence. The rooftop was definitely a highlight, with incredible views over the city and a perfect atmosphere for relaxing with a drink in the evening. The staff were also warm, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. A beautiful hotel in an amazing city, and I would absolutely stay here again on my next visit to Florence!"

Albergo Firenze

10/10 Excellent

"Love the location very close to everything. Room was warm though as AC never made the room cool."

25hours Hotel Florence Piazza San Paolino

8/10 Good

"Well I loved the theme and the decor of the hotel. I was shocked the pool is locked for hotel guests and a fee to use it with a reservation? Hotel guests should have priority over a day pass and it should be the opposite way around that outside guests need the reservation. It made a normal hotel stay where you randomly may go sit by the pool not a possibility, which was very unfortunate. Also be sure to ask how many people are in the communal reservation for dinner, because I would not have paid 70 euro just to awkwardly sit with one other couple."

Hotel La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio

10/10 Excellent

"This was my favorite hotel out of all the cities I’ve visited in Italy. The staff are kind and the hotel is in walking distance to everything. I didn’t take any taxis during my stay. It’s a 15 minute walk from the train station. It’s close to many restaurants, attractions and stores to shop. They have a beautiful roof top bar over looking Florence"

Plus Florence - Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"The best hostel in Florence."

Maxim Axial

10/10 Excellent

"The experience is very good! It is convenient to travel, and the staff is friendly and easy to communicate with. They are very conscientious."
