Wonderful place to stay in Florence. The staff go out of their way to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Impossible to get this kind of service and personalized attention at a full sized hotel

Molto, molto bene
I stayed in Antica Dimora for a lovely February week-end with my mother and we both enjoyed the hotel itself, breakfast time and especially the help provided by our hosts.

The lady that checked me in did not show me anything other than my room. When Andrea arrived for the evening shift however, he showed me the terrace and common room as well as gave me the breakfast times, and a map! Andrea was excellent! You are lucky to have him represent your hotel.

Great location, no parking but go lucky to find a spot to unload and used valet parking 21 Euro. The room had ac but no way to control temp so room was a little warm. Close ...walking distance to alot of major attractions and market which was a huge plus. Security was very good, breakfast was excellent.

It's impossible to overstate how lovely it was to stay at Antica Dimora Johlea. The room and common room and the rooftop terrace with those views...just amazing. Highly recommended. We went to Venice, Florence, Rome, Bologna and Milan during our trip and in my opinion Florence took the cake and it was in no small part to the room and the location and the friendliness of the staff, etc. Thank you for a memorable stay!

Lovely stay in Florence
This hotel was abolutely amazing and really made our trip to Florence. It is in a very convenient location, both the train stations and the local attractions are within a 15 minute walking distance. The roof terrace was absolutely brilliant. You can easily spend an evening up on the balcony with a nice glass of wine. The 'Honesty Bar' was a great touch. Fridge and selection of spirits etc. are made available to guests, you simply select what you've taken and it is added to the bill at the end of the stay. The stay was lovely and all of the reception staff were warm and welcoming. If I had to make any suggestions for improvement, the room was quite dusty.

The staff were so generous and accommodating - we arrived at 7pm on Xmas eve and they stayed late to meet us on arrival. (Note - you must arrange to check in after hours.) Shower had great water pressure and hot water. They gave us a free upgrade and we had a little sitting room upstairs in our room. The rooms were gorgeous - beautiful floor tiles, canopy bed. And the lounge had 24/7 snacks and coffee/hot chocolate. The view from the rooftop of the duomo and city is stunning. The area is quiet, and since Florence is relatively small, it is a quick walk to the tourist area. A great value and friendly staff!

Fabulous B&B! Charming room (air conditioned) decorated in traditional Tuscan style with Florentine textiles/colours and dark wood. Excellent en-suite bathroom. Good Continental Breakfast with a range of dishes and drinks. The Reception is staffed all day and they were very friendly and helpful. Apart from the Reception area there is a Breakfast Room and Lounge, all decorated in the Florentine style. Last but not least there is the Roof Terrace with views across Florence and the surrounding hills. We stayed for five nights and it was perfect. Pros: Perfect Location - quiet yet only 10.mins. walk from the Duomo Lift from the Ground Floor up to the B&B Bijou - only six rooms Beautifully decorated - full of Tuscan character Air Conditioned throughout Roof Terrace with views across Florence and the surrounding hills Friendly, Helpful Staff Excellent value for money Cons: None!

Fantastic stay, lovely warm friendly reception staff, particularly in afternoons, where the lady was very helpful with recommendations and bookings. Boutique hotel and good breakfast (although could be better spread for a vegan travellers). Lovely rooftop. Would recommend to anyone and would most definitely stay again. We felt at home and treated it like our home, feeling comfortable to do whatever we wanted as opposed to a regular hotel. Many thanks for making our stay memorable. Also love the honesty bar concept.

The most perfect hotel in all of Italy!
Everything about our stay was perfect from beginning to end. First of all, the staff are truly wonderful -- so friendly, and so helpful, even when I needed to see a doctor they did everything they could to help me find and communicate with someone. Next, the hotel and rooms are beautiful -- there is attention to every detail from decor to hospitality. I enjoyed the carefully selected art and flowers and silverware and books. I appreciated the coffee/tea selection available 24/7 and love that they offered biscotti and liqueur - such a nice touch! Breakfast is fresh, flavourful, bountiful and beautiful. And, if you happen to have any allergies or need to supplement your meal in any way, a fridge is available for use (i.e. I kept my non-dariy milk there to use with coffee in the morning). The beds are super comfy, the hot water and water pressure in the bathrooms are perfect, and the towels are perfectly fluffy. The location is also fantastic. Firenze is small, so it's easy to get around from just about any location, but the situation of the hotel at the northernmost tip made it just far enough away from the tourist bustle to feel like you were staying somewhere nicely secluded. And, speaking of getting away from tourist bustle, the rooftop terrace is stunning!! Gorgeous 360 views of the city, the mountains... ah! So beautiful! If you aren't already sure, I LOVED THIS HOTEL!

Classy and characterful.
Location was away from centre (by just a few mins walk), so conveniently close to the sites and station but not swamped with tourists (like me). Helpful friendly receptionists. Striking, characterful room with very comfortable bed. Rooftop terrace had good views at dusk. Quite a classy and informal feel.
