What guests think

Across many reviews, Hotel Perseo stands out for its unbeatable central location near the Duomo, exceptionally friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and a well-liked breakfast, though some note small bathrooms and dated areas.

Many guests found rooms comfortable and quiet despite the busy street, with effective air conditioning and, in some cases, standout views or terraces over the Duomo; a few mentioned thin walls, firm beds, or spotty Wi‑Fi. Practical touches include a 24‑hour front desk, a small elevator to upper floors, laundry service, and free water refills, though access through the shared building can feel confusing on arrival. Overall, travellers seeking a central, no‑frills stay with welcoming service and solid comforts will likely be pleased.

This was the perfect base camp for our short stay in Florence. The 24 hour front desk allowed us to check in with ease after taking a late train, and the gated building made us feel safe and secure (hotel is on the 3rd floor after you enter the gated area). Staff was great and gave us a map and suggestions on where to visit and how to get there. Breakfast was tasty and convenient. The hotel was a short walk from the train station and is in a prime location to walk to the main attractions! The rooms are simple but clean and have everything you need. There was a little bit of noise at night because of the central location, but overall was impressed how quiet the room was. Highly recommend if you want a great location st a great price.

Very helpful staff, bedroom and bathroom very comfortable and spacious. Small breakfast room but always very well stocked, super friendly staff and kept very clean. A great 3 star hotel option for an enjoyable stay in Florence.

Great hotel in Florence, Italy, Il Perseo is in a great location and makes a perfect homebase for sightseeing the city and excursions to the countryside. It's a 3 star hotel so its affordable but feels more like a 4 star hotel. The room is clean and the bed is comfortable, the views from the windows are nice, and they offer a really good breakfast with a lot of variety. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They offer laundry service at an incredibly low price.

Hotel Perseo is really situated in the perfect spot for everything, especially the train station. It was clean, the staff were really helpfull, there was drinks available free 24 hrs a day. The room was small but O.K. as you were mainly out and about and the room was just to sleep and freshen up in. Good hotel - would stay here again .

An absolute gem in the centre of Florence. All the staff were so lovely and accommodating especially Asia who went over and above to make sure we were very well looked after and comfortable. She was so thoughtful, mentioning we could get free filtered and cold water whenever we wanted. When bottles could be £3 each we were so grateful for this luxury. Our children also loved the fact that she offered them colouring and drawing supplies when we had some time to kill before our train to Rome. We were there 15th August which is a public holiday in Italy. Florence was so busy, crowded day and night, and having this hotel in the centre as a base was the best thing we could have done. We could leave our things in our room and pop back as we were walking past which saved us walking around with everything in the 38 degree or having to wear clothing appropriate for the church and the heat we could just come back and change. The air conditioning in the hotel was good. The beds were very comfortable and our rooms were spacious and had everything we needed including a fridge. The breakfast was lovely. Including cold meats and cheeses and melons and fresh fruit as well as very delicious pastries and usual cereals, nuts and yoghurts. All together this hotel made our trip to Florence such a wonderful experience at a time that can be quite challenging with crowds and heat. I feel sorry for all the people that don't stay here.

From the moment I arrived, this hotel felt like a home away from home. The staff were exceptionally warm and approachable—always ready to help with anything, and genuinely interested in making my stay memorable. I especially appreciated how the ladies at reception chatted with me about where I was from—it added such a personal touch. The Wi-Fi was strong and reliable, which made staying connected a breeze. Location-wise, it couldn't be better—just steps from the stunning Duomo Cathedral and surrounded by charming cafés and shops. The room and hotel were spotlessly clean—truly the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed. My room was cosy, comfortable, and fully equipped with everything I needed. They even helped me out with an iron and ironing board on my first day, and held my luggage before check-in, which made my arrival super convenient. The free breakfast was a delight: clean, plentiful, and full of delicious options you could help yourself to. It really set the tone for each day. If you're looking for the perfect blend of location, comfort, friendliness, and cleanliness—this hotel ticks every box. I absolutely loved my stay and would return in a heartbeat.

The rooms weren’t the cleanest, had major dust bunnies under the beds. Definitely need to do some vacuuming. Besides that it was quiet and got a good night’s sleep.

The staff here went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and provide recommendations for food and activities in the area. It was nice to arrive and be greeted by a friendly face. The location was in the middle of all the activity and still felt safe, and the rooms were comfortable and quiet despite being so central to all the activity. My only complaints were that there were mosquitoes in the room which made it difficult to feel settled to sleep, some mold/mildew in the shower, and the coffee from the machine at breakfast tasted burnt. It was an excellent location and the staff made us feel welcome. It was more straightforward and simple accommodation than other places on out trip, but I would stay here again.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel overall. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with directions or extra amenities. The beds were on the firm side, which might not suit everyone, but when I mentioned it, they provided extra padding, which made a big difference. The air conditioning worked very well, which was much appreciated during the hot days. The shower had great water pressure and stayed consistently hot, and the breakfast each morning was fresh and satisfying with a good variety of options. The location is excellent, with many major tourist sites within easy walking distance. Travelling with a teen, the spotty wifi was a slight nuisance. Would recommend for travelers looking for comfort, convenience, and great service.

The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the amenities were top-notch. The hotel’s location was perfect—right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore nearby attractions. What truly made this stay remarkable was the staff. They were always friendly, attentive, and eager to help with any request, whether it was arranging transportation, providing excellent local recommendations, or simply ensuring I had everything I needed. Their genuine hospitality made me feel valued and welcomed. Breakfast was another highlight—delicious, fresh, and with a great variety of options to start the day right. Every detail was carefully thought out, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. I cannot recommend Hotel Perseo highly enough. If you are looking for a place that combines comfort, convenience, and outstanding service, this is the place to stay. I will certainly be returning on my next trip!

Mais un peu déçus globalement car le prix est difficilement justifiable… la salle de bains méritait un coup de neuf et de propre, et l’immeuble est partagé ce n’est pas un hôtel « classique ». Le petit-déjeuner pourrait aussi être plus fourni notamment avec du chaud.
