Villa Cora
Staying at Villa Cora was an absolute delight from start to finish. The central courtyard is breathtaking—perfectly designed with a timeless elegance that makes you feel like you're in a hidden gem of Tuscany. Located on a hillside, it’s a bit removed from the main tourist spots, but not too far—just a short, scenic run down to Piazzale Michelangelo, which made for a lovely morning workout with stunning views along the way. Currently, there’s only one restaurant on-site, serving breakfast and dinner. Breakfast was excellent—fresh, varied, and beautifully presented. Dinner was enjoyable but nothing extraordinary. What truly stands out is the exceptional service: staff are attentive, warm, and genuinely go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. The outdoor pool area is serene and perfect for relaxing, and I imagine dining by the water would be even more magical at sunset. Despite being slightly off the beaten path, the peaceful atmosphere, beautiful setting, and top-tier hospitality make this hotel a standout choice. Highly recommend for travelers seeking authenticity and charm.

Residenza d'Epoca in Piazza Della Signoria
Staying at Residenza d'Epoca in Piazza Della Signoria was an absolute highlight of my trip to Florence. The hotel is perfectly located right in the heart of the city, tucked away just steps from Piazza della Signoria — you can’t miss it, especially with Gucci’s café nearby. I simply rang the bell and mentioned my reservation in English, and the door was promptly unlocked. The staff were incredibly welcoming and all spoke fluent English, making everything smooth and stress-free. Breakfast was a real treat — served in a beautifully designed room with delicious omelettes and fresh fruit that made mornings feel special. The room itself was charming, blending historic elegance with modern comfort, and created unforgettable memories. Even after check-out, they happily stored my luggage without hesitation — a small but thoughtful gesture that truly stood out. This place isn’t just a hotel; it’s an experience. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Florence.
Horto Convento
Staying at Horto Convento was an absolute highlight of my trip to Florence. The hotel, housed in a beautifully restored convent, blends historical charm with modern comfort perfectly. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was serene and welcoming—quiet yet vibrant in the right way. The rooms are spacious and thoughtfully designed, with excellent bedding and a luxurious bathroom where the hot water never ran cold. The breakfast was fantastic—fresh, local ingredients, and especially loved the homemade bread and jam. But what truly stood out was the staff. The front desk team were incredibly helpful, offering personalized recommendations for authentic local restaurants that we ended up loving. Their warmth and attention to detail made all the difference. Located just steps from the city center, it’s easy to explore Florence on foot or by public transit. This isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Florence.
B&B Lorena Suites
The B&B Lorena Suites in Florence is a charming little gem with spotless, well-maintained rooms that exude warmth and local character. While it’s a bit of a walk from the train station, public transit is convenient and nearby restaurants make up for the distance. The hostess, a friendly Italian woman, added so much personality to the stay—despite our language barrier (a mix of broken Italian and English), we ended up laughing heartily at our mutual confusion. In the end, hand gestures saved the day and made everything work smoothly. It’s not just about the comfort or cleanliness—it’s the genuine human connection that makes this place special. A truly memorable experience with a personal touch.
Palazzo Alfani - Residenza d'Epoca
Arrived at the hotel at 11 a.m., and my room was already cleaned and ready for check-in—no waiting, just smooth and efficient. The host was incredibly warm and attentive, constantly checking in with helpful tips and detailed information throughout the stay. The location is unbeatable—everything is within walking distance, from the Duomo to the Uffizi and the Academy Gallery. Just a heads-up: if you're planning to visit the Academy, book in advance; walk-ins often end up disappointed. Also, be careful near the entrance—the floor features artistic installations, and there are occasional reports of people pretending to trip over them, so keep an eye on where you step. Overall, this place offers a perfect blend of charm, convenience, and hospitality. A standout experience in Florence, and definitely worth every penny.
MyForte Relais de Charme & Spa
Staying at MyForte Relais de Charme & Spa in Florence was an absolute delight. The hotel is just the right size—not too big, not too small—making it feel intimate and peaceful. The rooftop terrace is stunning, offering breathtaking panoramic views of Florence’s rooftops and distant hills. It’s perfect for morning coffee or a quiet evening drink. The fitness center and spa are clean, well-maintained, and truly relaxing—ideal for unwinding after exploring the city. Rooms are spacious, comfortable, and the beds are incredibly cozy. Breakfast was excellent: a generous spread with both sweet and savory options, fresh and delicious. Staff were warm, attentive, and always ready to help. Everything you need for a memorable stay in Florence is here. This place truly delivers on comfort, charm, and value—definitely a top choice for any traveler looking for a serene escape in the heart of Tuscany.
Villa le Statue
Staying at Villa le Statue was an absolute highlight of our trip to Florence. The hosts were incredibly welcoming—immediately explained everything, offered helpful tips, and even arranged a pizza delivery for us! The apartment itself is brand new, sparkling clean, and feels luxurious from the moment you step in. Every detail is thoughtfully designed: the modern kitchen with top-tier appliances, spotless bathrooms, and that breathtaking terrace view over vineyards and rolling hills—it’s like living in a postcard. We had the private pool all to ourselves thanks to the small number of units, which made it feel truly exclusive. The secure indoor parking behind an electronic gate added extra peace of mind. Honestly, we felt like VIPs throughout our stay—the entire experience was seamless down to the smallest details. My wife is notoriously picky, and she didn’t complain once—which says a lot! The only minor hiccup was with taxi bookings; we had to try several times before one became available (sometimes up to 5–6 calls). If you’re heading to the Uffizi Galleries, plan on giving yourself around 20 minutes just to arrange transport. But honestly? This is a tiny trade-off for such an exceptional stay. Highly recommend this gem for anyone seeking privacy, comfort, and authentic Italian charm.
Hotel Lungarno Vespucci 50
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight! The staff were incredibly friendly and always ready to help with anything we needed. The view from the room was breathtaking—overlooking the Arno River and the heart of Florence, especially magical at sunset. The rooms are spacious, beautifully designed, and filled with tasteful details that make you feel right at home. It’s perfectly located for exploring the city on foot or by metro. Every little touch shows attention to detail. This is a true gem in Florence—highly recommend for anyone looking for comfort, style, and unforgettable views.
Benci House
Staying at Benci House in the heart of Florence was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—just steps away from all major attractions, including Palazzo Pitti and the surrounding parks, making it perfect for exploring the city on foot. The property itself is beautifully designed with a spacious queen-sized bed and tasteful decor that gives it a cozy yet elegant vibe. The staff were consistently warm and helpful, going above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. For its prime location, quality, and charm, the price is incredibly fair compared to other hotels in Florence. This place truly offers exceptional value—highly recommended for anyone looking to experience authentic Florence without compromise.
Glimpse Hotel
Honestly, I can't think of a better place to stay in Florence. Right outside the door, you're just a 3-4 minute walk from the Duomo—only a few hundred meters away—and on the other side, a stunning square within 100 meters. As a Chinese traveler, I was pleasantly surprised to receive a small gift: Wujian pickled mustard greens (I don’t eat them, but the gesture was genuinely thoughtful). The hotel has only ten rooms, so it feels intimate and quiet, and the breakfast was surprisingly upscale—complete with smoked salmon, which totally exceeded my expectations. One thing I noticed was that the bedding uses two separate sheets instead of a traditional duvet cover—maybe a local Florentine touch? But it didn’t affect comfort at all. And best of all, there’s a paid parking lot just 50 meters away, which made things incredibly convenient for drivers. Everything about this stay felt just right—location, service, attention to detail. A perfect blend of charm and practicality. Highly recommended.
