Show description from: activehotels diytravel octopustravel

You will be in the full centre of the city, in the heart of Florence, close to the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria and to all the other works of art. Our position will make easy to reach other points of interest like the Congress Centre, the Fair Centre and the main train Station of Santa Maria Novella. Around us you will find the many restaurants with Tuscan kitchen but not only that, you will also find bars, shops, characteristic markets, cinemas and theatres.

You will be in the full centre of the city, in the heart of Florence, close to the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria and to all the other art masterpieces. The Hotel is in a completely refurbished six floors building, with lift, where on the top level the terrace-garden offers a stunning view overlooking the Duomo and the Signoria!

This hotel's best selling point is its ideal location. It is situated twenty metres from the Duomo, ten metres from Piazza Repubblica, a two minute walk from Ponte Vecchio and a five minute walk from the train station. Dante Alighieri's (Italy's most famous author) house is a stone's throw away.

The rooms are small with basic furniture, some with a view over the Duomo. All the rooms are without private bathroom facilities. THERE ARE NO ENSUITE BATHROOMS - THEY ARE COMMUNAL AND USED BY ALL GUESTS.

There is no restaurant. The breakfast room is situated on the same floor as the lobby and offers lovely views over the roof tops of Florence.

The lobby is small and located on the fifth floor. It can be reached by using the hotel's only lift or by using the stairs.

This is a tall seven storey palazzo in the traditional Italian style. It blends in well with the surrounding buildings.

In the summer the hotel opens its rooftop terrace where guests can relax, sunbathe or simply enjoy the spectacular view of the Duomo which appears almost close enough to touch. There is no doubt that this family run hotel is in some need of refurbishment, however, this hotel offers excellent value for money. MS 03/07
