The view was breathtaking from the very small balcony off of the lounge area. My room was very small and we had the view of the courtyard which was the back of many buildings. The pictures on the website looked nothing like the place. The hotel was also under construction. I feel the only postive was the beautiful view of the Duomo. The staff was polite as well.

Dear Ellie,Thanks for your positive comment.During the period in which you hosted the 5th floor of the hotel (5 rooms) they were under renovation, we apologize if we caused any disturbance. It's all over now. Thank you for appreciating the view of the Duomo from the balcony of the breakfast room where every morning you can have breakfast while admiring Brunelleschi's imposing Dome.Next to the breakfast room we have three rooms with private balconies where the breathtaking view of the cathedral and the Duomo is amazing.Best Regards.Paolo

Hotel was great. Close to everything, it’s a 10 min walk from the Firenze train station and close to all shops, restaurants and attractions. Staff are super helpful. Our room was recently renovated and was perfect.

The best location, every site is within a 5 - 10 min walk. Lots of food and drink options everywhere. I enjoyed being woken up by the church bells everyday. Staff was quick and efficient on check-in/out, and helped call a cab.

I really enjoyed my stay, the staff at the hotel are amazing, they were very helpful during my stay. The bed was very comfortable, I got a room with a balcony and a Duomo view, which was spectacular. You are extremely close to all attractions and only an 8 min walk to the main train station. I will definitely book my next stay in Florence at this hotel, thank you again, you guys were amazing!!!

This was an extremely small room for the deluxe room and the balcony advertised was unaccessible. There wasn't even enough room to open your luggage as there is barely enough room to walk around the bed. Location is very convenient to the Duomo, but it was very loud all the time including outside and inside noises. We could hear people in the next room snoring and everything that was said in the lobby as well as the renovation crew working on the Duomo.The bed was very uncomfortable and hard. Housekeeping came every day and took towels etc but didn't replace many things including the paper cup in the bathroom and towels. I will definitely find a different accomodations for future trips to Florence.

We are very sorry for your inconvenience while staying in this room. The anonymous comment does not allow us to identify the room where you stayed and does not allow us to understand what exactly he is talking about. Why hide, you have the right to express your opinion.We don't understand this statement?: This was an extremely small room for the deluxe room and the balcony advertised was unaccessible.We do not sell rooms under the DeLuxe heading, our rooms are:Basic, Classic, Superior NO DELUXE. We have single and double rooms with a private balcony which is accessed through a large window and on each terrace there is a small table with chairs available to appreciate the atmosphere and the view enjoyed from the rooms with a balcony directly overlooking the Duomo. The size of the rooms is indicated for each room in the room descriptions, we must not deceive anyone, it is not our style, we work openly. Cleaning is carried out every day, however an oversight can happen, the customer should not be ashamed to request a new glass or a new towel which we change every 3 days, this is also reported in the descriptions. We welcome this opportunity to thank all those guests who had a good time staying at Hotel Duomo Florence.

Entrance smelled horrible. Elevator to hotel was tiny and smelled. Room was small. Black mold all over bathroom. Shower leaked all over floor. Patio smelled like sewer, couldn’t even use it. Young woman working at the front counter was kind and helpful, so that was the only positive. Had to leave hotel room key with front desk everytime you leave which was annoying.

Response from Paolo The Owner on Nov 19, 2023
Dear Yana,We are sorry for your negative experience which fortunately is not reflected in other customers, we are thinking that you have chosen the wrong hotel.Sometimes at the entrance to the condominium you may encounter bad odors coming from the dark water deposits which in the historic buildings of all cities were located inside the buildings themselves and not outside. The lift is not very large, it can accommodate 3 people, it is not like those found in steel hospitals, cold and anonymous, it is ancient, made of wood and glass, it is the 74th installed in Florence in 1938, it has its own charm that not everyone can grasp. We checked what you complained about in the room but we did not find that the shower was leaking into the floor, we think that you did not know how to close the shower door which is perfect in closing. The mold complained about is actually a water stain that leaked from a pipe the day before your arrival, we apologize for not having pointed this out, it was promptly repaired and whitewashed and is now perfectly clean. We don't know that to go out onto the balcony of the room with a view of the city's rooftops you need to wear a gas mask!!!! If others report this problem to us we will install a perfume diffuser!!!!

Towel issue for your bathroom at this hotel.
The location of this hotel is the only thing that I was happy with. The Service was OK until I discovered they only give you one bath towel per day. I have stayed all over the world in hotels. Every hotel gives you 2 to 3 bath towels per day. The first day I asked for an extra towel no problem, the second day I asked for a towel, no problem the third day I asked for a towel the front desk person said the manager stated I couldn’t have any more towels. This is ridiculous. You should always have two towels in every bathroom in a hotel. Very disappointing.
Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023
Response from Paolo The Owner on Oct 11, 2023
Kind Gilbert,We are very sorry for your dissatisfaction. Our staff made a mistake in not explaining that our towel rules are that the bath towel is changed every day for each person and that additional requests are subject to charges, we provided additional towels upon request and did not charge any costs. Our bath towels are very large and our attention is paid to energy saving, for each washed towel 30 liters of water are used, in this period of the year the temperature is high and the towels left hanging dry quickly to be reused, contributing to less pollution.We apologize again for not being able to inform you about our thoughts and our inattention cost us a bad review, we are sorry for this.Paolo

love love love
this place was amazing! My mom and I stayed here last week and we loved every second of it, I wish I had stayed longer than just one night! The staff was amazing, the location was amazing, the breakfast was amazing, there was even a little hotel dog that was enjoyable to hang out with. I highly recommend this, if you were looking for a great location, a great stop and ground as you travel around, Florence, and a great view. My only complaint would be that in a room with one queen, bed, and one twin bed, the one twin bed was more like a car with a very thick bar in it. It was relatively uncomfortable to sleep on, but besides that all the conditions were great and my mom truly love the view, thanks for making it such a great experience for us!
