What guests think

B&B Hotel Firenze Laurus Al Duomo draws consistent praise for its unbeatable central location near the Duomo and train station, friendly staff, and generally comfortable rooms, though some note dated decor, small spaces, occasional noise, and variable in-room amenities.

Breakfast on the rooftop terrace and city views are widely appreciated, but the former rooftop bar and evening terrace access no longer operate. Cleanliness is usually strong, yet a few guests reported issues like mold, odors, or worn common areas. Overall, expect a convenient base with warm service and solid comforts in the historic center.

Anreise vom Flughafen mit der Straßenbahn sehr einfach und dann nur 5min. zu Fuß zum Hotel. Perfekt, auch die zentrale Lage vom Hotel zu den Sehenswürdigkeiten, Geschäften und Lokalen. Zimmer sind sehr ruhig und gut temperiert zum Erholen eines anspruchsvollen Tag. Das Frühstück auf der Terrasse mit Blick zum Dom rundet den Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel perfekt ab. Leider gibt es in diesem Hotel kein deutsches Tv zu empfangen.

Perfectly located and staff was amazing. We had requested valet service so we didn't have to worry about parking and it went without a hitch. Rooms were comfortable and the included breakfast was plenty with various choices available. We had breakfast on the outside terrace with the view of the Duomo, magical. I totally recommend this hotel.

Very conveniently located within Florence, walking distance from the train station. The staff were very welcoming and helpful, they reserved a table for us to have dinner the first night we arrived. The breakfasts in the morning were delightful, with a beautiful terrace with a beautiful view of the city. Would stay here again!

We had a wonderful stay at B&B Hotel Firenze Laurus al Duomo! The location is excellent—quiet yet very central, within easy walking distance to the almost all historic sights. The room was clean, comfortable. The breakfast included is a buffet and the food is very delicious view is incredible on the 6th floor roof top. At there, you can easily see Duomo di Firenze. The hotel also upgraded our room for free. We truly appreciated and would happily stay here again!

The hotel is EXCELLENTLY located, less than two blocks from Il Duomo. The staff was amazing and friendly (Simona, Wael and Larissa) I booked two rooms for my wife and I, and my in-laws, and each room was greeted with a wine bottle. The breakfast buffet was delicious with many options to eat, and we had a super COOLING A/C that made the room extra COMFORTABLE to sleep. So far in our vacation, this room provided the best sleep. With all this said, the only reason the property did not get a 5 star rating was because they no longer have the rooftop terrace open at night. When we stayed there in May 2022, it was available for people to go up and have wine, tapas, and enjoy the AMAZING and CLOSE view of Il Duomo, one of the main reasons I chose to stay once again here. I'm very sure other guests will enjoy this hotel because it is great, but since I experienced it when night rooftop access was possible, this time around I couldn't give it 5 stars 😒

Great location for the train station and museums and churches, the Campanile, Santa Maria del Fiore and the Baptistry. The reception staff were lovely and helpful and especially Simone, as she was on the desk in the evenings we were there. Good breakfast, enough choice and a breakfast terrace for the warmer weather! Clean simple room.

Stayed 6 nights

Our review is based on six nights stayed at this hotel. Positives: excellent location near the Duomo complex which made it convenient for walking around the city. The room was serviced everyday (big plus), and bed was comfortable. Negatives: the room itself was very small, dark, furnished and crowded with dated and useless furniture. There wasn't enough space for us to place and open our suitcases, so we had to improvise by moving a side table inside the tiny closet to have some access to our clothes. The bathroom was shameful, the partial glass shower door was not attached to the bathtub, therefore, it was subject to flooding the floor whenever we showered. There was a wand instead of a shower head. Again, it was dated and very uncomfortable. Not sure how this hotel got such a high rating "Wonderful 9.2" in Expedia, and it claims to have been recently remodeled. But honestly, it doesn't pose as such. The carpets in the hallways and stairs were worn out, the upper terrace was uninviting because of the pigeon's droppings all over the place, staff was semi-friendly - depending on who was working the front desk. In our humble opinion, this property should be an 8.3 rating or 8.5 at most. It is important to note that the pictures shown online don't depict the truth, they are misleading and deceiving.

Pros: - Location; - Room/bathroom is a reasonable size; and - Reliable wi-fi. Cons: - This is never a 4* hotel, it’s 3* at best; - The decor is pretty tired & fairly basic; - The walls are very thin, meaning you can hear a fair amount of noise from the corridor & the room(s) next to you; - There is no bar, despite the hotel description saying there is; - The roof terrace is accessed via the breakfast room, which is closed/locked in the afternoon & evening; and - We did not receive our free bottle of wine & there was no mention of consideration being given to a room upgrade (both benefits of being a Hotels.com gold member & this supposedly being a VIP hotel).

Good location, but staff gave poor recommendations (for thier own benefit, eg restaurants) and AC is controlled by front desk who turn off when you leave and if they don’t know you return, your AC will be deactivated. I understand the environmental factor but spending the night without ac in that heat was not nice. We had no idea until after what the problem was.

Staff were super friendly and welcoming, always smiling and happy to help with anything. The rooms were beautiful, well stocked, clean, bright and big! Great views from all 3 rooms we booked. The late checkout (12pm) was a game changer in terms of maximising our final morning in Florence.
