I loved my stay here! Such a fun and quirky hotel. They did not skimp on the amenities. All staff were kind and helpful. It is a short walk to most Florence landmarks as well as the train station. We loved our time and will be recommending it to our friends.

They could have charged me twice as much. I’m not a fan of the statues of Batman. But don’t let that fool you. That hotel we stayed at while we spent time in Europe.

This is a fantastic hotel in a great location. The staff are exceedingly friendly and go out of their way to show you local landmarks and what to do. What I loved about this place 1) fantastic location, 5 mins from train station, and located right on a plaza with lots of restaurants 2) generously sized, clean rooms with beautiful ceilings 3) really high quality breakfast 4) unique charm, the owner has a thing for superheroes so you will see some large replica models throughout the place Amazingly friendly team

Decent stay. Could have been better

Check In: relatively quick but not friendly. Gentleman checking us in just started talking to someone else. Room (121): was nice. Okay for a 2-3 night stay. Clean bathroom but the window on the bathroom door looking into the bathroom was strange. Bed was comfortable but the a/c didn’t cool the room enough. It was very hot for June but meant we didn’t sleep too well. No smart TV so no English channels.

Excellent hotel; bad pillows

Beautiful hotel and kind staff. Very well located. It was a quick walk to the hotel with luggage from the train station. During our stay we were happy to be so close to the many things we wanted to see. Only complaint is that the pillows were terribly uncomfortable. We did not sleep well due to that. Otherwise the bed was comfortable and though small the room was nice and very well air conditioned as a break from the late June heat. Would stay here again if there were better pillows.

This hotel is so beautiful and in a wonderful location. Our room had a vaulted ceiling and murals on the walls. It was unforgettable. Our only complaint was that the air con was not very effective at cooling our room, leaving us quite warm at night.

The location is close to Florence train station. Florence is small. Every attraction is within walking distance. Therefore, 5 minutes walk to the train station becomes significant, especially with luggage. The staff are friendly and helpful. We had earlier hour tour, the staff arranged breakfast boxes for us. Again, all attractions are within 15 minutes walking distance.

Lovely stay in Florence

The hotel is beautiful, with a large and comfortable lobby area that is great for sitting with a drink or meeting your group. There are also some fun and unique touches in the hallways that made us smile. Wonderful breakfast included, which met the various preferences of our 4 person group. Helpful servers came around to take coffee orders and keep tables clean. Room was clean and well appointed, with a beautiful bathroom and very nice toiletries. Comfortable bed, high quality linens. Staff was friendly and helpful with everything from checkin to helping us get a large taxi for departure. Location was excellent, right on a beautiful square and within walking distance of everything we wanted to do. Highly recommend.
