The hotel is right in the middle of tourist attractions and 7 min walk from train station. It has decent breakfast included. The best part is the people working there - they are very nice and friendly.

Liked: Cleanliness
Hotel Rex is ideally located for a few days in Florence. The main attractions are very walkable, for south of the river it is around 30 minutes. We had a lovely welcome from the staff and they had baggage storage as we were early for our check in. A nice continental breakfast selection available too. The street of the hotel is lively with bars and restaurants. This might put some quieter travelers off, but we were happy endulging in the €3.50 spritz and apretivio. The rooms and amenities are rustic, but all working properly and still very clean. The pros of it's location and service certainly outweighed the room conditions for us. Overall, a lovely stay in Florence. Thank you!

Location was excellent, only 5 minute walk from station & main attractions. While the property is quite shabby looking, the room was clean. Breakfast was adequate with a good choice for a continental selection. The bed was quite hard & the bathroom very small. However, for the price & location could not complain too much. Staff was friendly & helpful.
