Monte Forato Tours

Hotel La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio was a comfortable and convenient choice for our stay in Florence. The hotel is centrally located on Via Guicciardini, perfectly situated between the Ponte Vecchio and Pitti Palace, making it very easy to explore the city on foot. Because the hotel is located within a historic 16th-century building, finding our room and navigating the split staircases and different floor levels took a little getting used to. Our room was small, but it was clean and comfortable, and perfectly manageable for two people as long as we stayed organized with our unpacked belongings. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Manuel was especially helpful, giving us advice on navigating Florence as well as excellent bar and restaurant recommendations. One of the highlights was the lovely rooftop bar, with beautiful views over the city and the Boboli Gardens near Pitti Palace. The morning breakfast was also excellent, with a substantial selection and a very pleasant atmosphere. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would happily choose Hotel La Scaletta again when we return to Florence.
