Guests consistently praise the hotel's beautiful Florentine decor and prime location right on the Piazza, within easy walking distance of the train station and attractions like the Uffizi. Many enjoyed rooms with lovely views overlooking the Piazza. The rooftop terrace also offers stunning views of the Duomo. Some guests, however, have noted noise from nearby establishments, particularly in certain rooms. The breakfast is very good and served in beautiful rooms.

The location was indeed perfect.
My room felt quite dated and not especially clean. The sofa had stains, and the lighting was dim.
