Perfect location steps from Ponte Vecchio so very easy to walk to all the sights (uber/taxis take longer to go places in Florence). It’s an old palazzo that has been converted so lots of stone steps and very quirky dining hall for breakfast and viewing tower. Our room had everything you need and great aircon. Very pleasant staff everywhere.

Staff were lovely, roof terrace was amazing and the rooms have stunning high ceilings and tiled floors. Its right by the Ponte Vecchio on a quiet street. Such a charming hotel, would definitely stay again. Just to flag that if you're going for the room with the private terrace, note that there are narrow stairs inside the door leadjng up to the bedroom so you will need to get your luggage up stairs.
