What guests think

Across reviews, Hotel Gioia is praised for its very central location and friendly staff, while feedback on rooms and amenities is more mixed, with basic accommodations, occasional noise, and a small older elevator that still requires some stair use.

Most describe the property as clean, though a few report housekeeping misses and maintenance problems such as odors or empty toiletries. Best suited to travelers seeking a straightforward base and not relying on extensive amenities or an indulgent breakfast.

Elevator was so super old and time consuming to take. Stairs were not too good to take! Breakfast was so in rush by staff and obviously quality was not the best! Shampoo was empty, which the following day on their service, they didn’t take care of that! City tax per person was 6 euro! Which I asked everywhere else is 5 euro, how come here is different ?she didn’t understand me because she was not talking English! Which I thought , hotel receptionist should know English! Idk ! Or maybe they know , when it comes to questions they pretend they don’t!!

This accomodation couldn’t be anymore convenient. From the daily breakfast(gluten free options) which was great.Hotel Gioia was in an amazing location. In the heart of Florence. Easy walk to restaurants, transportation to the local landmarks and attractions. We didn’t need to use any public transport till we left Florence. Clean and tidy and the staff are super friendly. One of our best stays while travelling in Europe. Thank you for the wonderful memories our family have made in this beautiful city. Would love to come back and stay here again.

At the first day of stay, we’ve got a room which had no blankets. The room smelled terrible because the WC tank was leaking. The WC entrance was small and I knocked my head to the wall and it was painful. It was noisy too since the neighbour was singing « Happy birthday « at 2 am. We talked to the staff and they gave us a better room for the second night. I don’t recommend that hotel at all since it has very poor and cheap management.

Un séjour très agréable à Florence qui est d’une densité incroyable dans son centre historique tout en profitant des alentours toscans. Un régime à base de cuisine toscane et de glaces inoubliables. L’hôtel Gioia est très bien placé à quelques pas de la cathédrale Santa Maria del Fiore, ce qui permet de visiter Florence en long en large et en travers à pied. Accessible depuis la gare à 10min à pied, avec des chambres de taille correcte et une salle de bain de bonne qualité, un petit déjeuner buffet plutôt correct, le tout avec une équipe très agréable et bienveillante pour vous servir. Un beau séjour dans cet hôtel au bon rapport qualité/prix
