Really love this hotel, modern, clean and close to everything. The room is very big and everything is very clean and up to date. It’s not typical hotel where there is reception after certain hour and also on Sunday. I was little but worry at the beginning but everything works out fine.

Dear Teresa,thank you very much for your review. We take great care of assistance to our Guests and safety and we do always reply to our mobile when reception is closed, as you may have experimented. Also, all doors are alarmed (if left open or if opened without the electronic key) and a viseo surveillance system keeps a 24hrs eye on the property. Hope to have you back with us. Very warm regards,

Central apartment
The apartment is nice. There is no 24hour reception. It is central to most things. There is no onsite parking and it costs 25 Euros per nite.

Dear Shena, thank you for your review. On site parking in the city center are very very unusual, but the parking spot is 10 m away from us, almost and on site parking :-). 25/day is a very good rate for Florence where parking spots start from 35/day. Parking rates are advertised on this website, so that you know them in advance and you can decide whether to stay in the city center or outside, where parking lots are cheaper (from 20/day). As advertised, there's n o 24 hrs reception, but our staff is available 24 hrs on call or Whatsapp chat. We DO ALWAYS reply! Hope to have you with us next time you will be in Florence. Warm regards,

Great location & sooooo comfortable
It was a pleasure to stay 10 nights at Residence Hilda. The apartment was cleaned so well everyday and the apartment itself was lovely. Florence is relatively small and the location of the hotel was ideal to see the sights on foot. If we were to return to Florence, we would for sure do our best to stay again at Residence Hilda.

Fantastic experience from start to finish
We had a wonderful stay at Residence Hilda. The staff is awesome. Everyone was incredibly nice, helpful and professional. We mostly worked with Marzanna and Valentina, but Gabriel also helped us. They arranged guides, no line tickets (on short notice!), taxis, parking for our car, and gave us terrific restaurant recommendations. They also allowed us to check out a bit late (and stored our things) as we had an event in the afternoon in the city before leaving for the airport. The suite was spotlessly clean and furnished with everything one would expect at a high end hotel including robes, slippers and toiletry amenities. Plus, the air conditioning worked very well, which was important as it was more than 90 degrees while we were there. Also, the wifi worked perfectly. The location is fantastic. It is less than 5 min walk to the Duomo, a few minutes to the Accademia and also walking distance to the Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio, and many other churches and areas of town with great restaurants. All this, and the property is very quiet. It is on a small one way street that gets almost no traffic. Honestly, we have rarely had a property exceed our expectations like this. Thank you so much to everyone at Residence Hilda for making our stay in Florence so delightful, comfortable and easy!

This property was in a great location, very clean and we loved the layout of our deluxe suite. We traveled with our son and he used the pull out sofa in the living room. There was also a kitchenette and table with seating for four. The bathroom and main bedroom were spacious as well. This property had a lift. We could walk 12-15 min to the train station and the hotel will call a taxi or private car for you when needed. The front desk was extremely pleasant and helpful. We definitely would stay there again. We also felt very safe walking around at night. The only downside was that our room was street side and noisy some evenings. We brought earplugs and loved the location so that didn’t bother us too much. The beds and pillows were pretty firm, and we like them softer, but overall Residence Hilda was a great place to stay for the week and we would stay again.

Booked for the location, loved for the convenience
We booked our stay in the middle of a two week trip to Italy. By the time we got to Florence, the crowds, restaurant meals and dirty clothes were getting to us, so having a little place away from the noise was perfect. With a laundromat across the street and a grocery store on the next block, we were able to have a few simple meals at the apartment, get our clothes washed and recharge for the rest of the trip. Everything at Residence Hilda was great. The staff is wonderful, the the apartment was very sleek, efficient and tidy. My only request would be for more comfortable seating in the living room; there was only the pull-out couch.

The location could not be any better. As soon as you step outside, you're greeted by the duomo just in the distance. There is a market that pops up steps from the hotel doors and the staff gives excellent recommendations about where to eat/drink/eat the best gelato in the city. Rooms were clean and well maintained and we had WAY more room than we expected in our Jr Suite.

Dear Guests, thank you for your review and suggestion. We are sorry to read about the complain only after the check-out: any issue reported during the stay can be solved. The mattresses are medium soft/hard to try to match with most of the Guest's preferences, but we have toppers that can be added for the comfort of all our Guests. Of course we are glad to add the topper in any moment during the stay, knowing that there is a request. Thank you!

Best trip decision
Booking into Residence Hilda was one of the best decisions we made when preparing for our stay in Florence. This small hotel was an oasis from the busy streets and our activities. The personal concierge service from Gisella and Marizanna we experienced was outstanding. The whole place was spotless. The rooms are very quiet and well appointed. We spent a little more than we usually do on accommodations- and it was truly worth every penny.

Beyond outstanding.
Immense, elegant suites with every comfort, situated in a perfect location, central yet quiet. Immaculately clean. Professional, friendly and helpful staff who go above and beyond what is necessary to make your stay comfortable. Design was a perfect blend of the classical proportions of the building with modern aesthetic. Will never stay anywhere else as and when I return to Florence. Only regret is that room can only accommodate two adults and an under 12. Would return sooner if an adult plus 16 and 14 girls could stay in same suite. Thank you.
