Hotel Details

Location

Situated in the heart of Florence, a 7-minute walk from the main train station and within walking distance of all major landmarks.
The property is on Via Guelfa 22, a central street with easy access to Santa Maria Novella station (7-minute walk), the Duomo (5-7 minutes), Palazzo Vecchio (5 minutes), and the Accademia Gallery (600m). The area is dense with bars, restaurants, supermarkets, and other businesses within 0.3km. Public transport (tram and bus) is very accessible, and the Florence Airport is 9km away. The entrance is on the fourth floor via a small, slow lift (fits one person with luggage); the street-level entrance is not clearly signed. The location score is 8.6 out of 10.

Dining

No restaurant on site; a light self-serve breakfast is available in the kitchen from 9:00 to 10:30, with free coffee and tea.
There is no restaurant or café in the property. A simple breakfast is set up in the kitchen each morning from 9:00 to 10:30, consisting of coffee, tea, milk, toast, and snack-shaped cookies - it is complimentary but very basic. The kitchen itself is minimally equipped with a microwave, kettle, and refrigerator; cooking (using stovetops) is not allowed. Many restaurants, cafés, and supermarkets are within a 0.3km walk, including Caffe Patriarca and Trattoria La Gratella. Given the limited breakfast and lack of cooking facilities, planning meals outside is practical.

Facilities and Services

Free WiFi and daily housekeeping; luggage storage and small lockers available; electric vehicle charging station on site.
WiFi is free in all areas, though connectivity can be inconsistent. Daily housekeeping is included at no extra charge. Luggage storage is available after checkout for exploring the city. Small lockers are provided for valuables (not large enough for suitcases). An electric vehicle charging station is present, but there is no parking for cars or bicycles. Reception is staffed only a few hours per day; most communication is handled via online messages or WhatsApp. The building has a very small and slow lift (fits one person with one suitcase). No airport shuttle service is available - use the train or tram from Florence Airport, which connects via the nearby station. Pets are not allowed.
