Staying at this hotel was a treat! The rooms are beautifully and luxuriously decorated, making it the most stylish place I've ever stayed in. The cleanliness gave it a 'crisp' feeling, although it was a bit noisy being next to the elevator and a machine. The service was incredibly helpful and welcoming, offering a wide range of amenities. The location couldn't be better, right at the city center in a nice area. The dining experience, although not the best, was very nice. Overall, a great stay with minor noise concerns.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was right in the heart of Florence, making it convenient to access tourist attractions and shopping areas, but it was a bit noisy due to its proximity to the elevator and a noisy machine. The rooms were beautiful and matched the pictures I saw when booking.
