Common downsides include street or internal noise, dated bathrooms, and firm pillows. There is no elevator, some house rules like leaving your key at reception, and city tax often must be paid in cash. Expect a straightforward, budget-friendly base with warm service and easy access to the center.

1a super Hotel, alles erklärt wo der Frühstücksraum ist und wann es Frühstück gibt. Seinen Schlüssel muss man jedes Mal abgeben um zu verhindern, dass du ihn verlierst etc. Rezeption 24/7 besetzt. Der innen Garten ist der Hammer. Hier kann man abends super sitzen und rauchen oder etwas trinken. Das Frühstück ist okay, leider keine Eier und der Kaffee ist nicht so gut. Um die Ecke habt ihr aber cafè wo ihr Kaffee für 1.30€ bekommt. Es sind sehr Zentrums nah ca 1 km von der Medici Kapelle.

Close to Florence town center, we walked to every attraction on feet, including my 8 yo. Front desk and restaurant staff are super nice and friendly, they do require to leave room key at front desk every time you leave hotel though, understandable as their room key is pretty unique with a brass charm. Parking is also possible with their partnered garage, about 8 min walk away, 2 min drive away, as Florence town center is not welcoming cars. If you arrive by car, highly recommend to check with front desk about their garage for discounted rate

Our stay at Hotel Rita Major was great! The staff are so kind and helpful, from bringing our bags up the stairs (there’s no elevator) to calling a taxi for us to take us to the train station, they were there for us every step of the way. Breakfast was also phenomenal, with a nice array of fruit, cereal, and pastries. We loved their coffee and hot chocolate!

Hôtel au charme ancien, aux chambres simples et sans chichi. Personnel serviable et accueillant. Situé dans la zone à circulation limitée, sans possibilité de se stationner sur place. Cependant, un autre hôtel en dehors de la zonne offre des places de stationnement à des tarifs predefrentiels (15euros/jour). Excellent petit déjeuner, établissement calme.

The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was included which had things as yogurt, breads, deli meats, juices, coffees, cheese spread. The room was good and the A/C cooled the room instantly. The bed was a bit too firm for me so it was a bit of a hard sleep yet to each their own for that. The courtyard is a great place to relax or visit with others…..it was a neat environment to chill in with all the plants and trees inside.

Very quiet hotel, room was comfortable and clean, nice bathroom and shower. My room was on the ground floor and over looked the courtyard which was a lovely place to sit and relax. Air con worked well and was very welcome! Breakfast was included and perfectly adequate if you like a continental breakfast. Reception staff very helpful, providing map of Florence and directing to where I wanted to be. Would come back in an instant!

This was an excellent place to stay. Positioned as an easy walk to the piazzas and the heart of Florence but not without local charm! The staff were top rate and always friendly. I always feel awkward as an American tourist who doesn’t know much Italian, but they were so patient as I clumsily bounced between languages. Breakfast was great and the room cleaning was excellent and intuitive. My only suggestion would be a small shelf in the shower for shampoo and soap, but that didn’t damper the experience at all.

Along the way, you will come across restaurants, bars and coffee shops where locals go. Also there's nice pizzeria right next door. We had great experience staying in this hotel.

As equipes, de recepção e café da manhã são esforçadas em prestar bom atendimento. A acomodação que me destinaram é muitíssimo antiquada. Tem-se a impressão de recente tentativa de modernização, porém com nítida preocupação com economia excessiva. Exemplo, banheiro onde sequer existe um suporte para papel higiênico. O mesmo fica apoiado em um banquinho de plástico. O local onde fica o chuveiro não tem box ou sequer uma cortina. Ao tomar banho, molha-se todo o banheiro, inclusive o vaso sanitário. A minha acomodação reservada na Hotéis.com foi de cama king, e na realidade,bo quarto tinha duas camas de solteiro juntas. Outra situação absurda é exigir que a taxa de turismo seja paga em espécie. Justificativa: taxa cobrada pela instituição de crédito. Falta raciocínio. Obs: não foi possível anexar os vídeos que comprovam meus destaques.

Rooms
Rooms are simple and functional, with some spacious layouts; air conditioning works well in many rooms but there are occasional issues and energy-saving key switches. Noise from the street or thin walls and firmer beds or flat pillows are recurring comments, and decor/bathrooms can feel dated.

Autant vous dire que nous Avon que l’impression d’être dans un avion toute la nuit. La literie est confortable mais les coussins eux sont à changer car ultra plat. Un petit déjeuner correct. Un emplacement proche du centre accessible à pieds. Attention la taxe de séjour est à payer en espèces. Ce qui sauve cet hôtel c’est son personnel qui est charmant et sympathique.

Definitivamente la persona que está en recepción es muy amable y tiene esa vocación de servicio, lamentablemente no todo el personal es igual. Por otro lado, los alrededores son seguros y puedes caminar sin ninguna preocupación. Respecto a las habitaciones, puede mejorar mucho. De entrada las camas son muy incómodas y no te permite descansar bien, las paredes son delgadas porque se escucha prácticamente todo lo de otros cuartos, la calle y el lobby. Y entiendo que el hotel busca cuidar sus instalaciones, pero hay demasiadas reglas para la calidad/precio que se ofrece. Dejo 4 estrellas porque tiene mucho potencial el hotel, siemore y cuando puedan tomar de la mejor manera la retroalimentación

The staff are so kind and helpful, from bringing our bags up the stairs (there’s no elevator) to calling a taxi for us to take us to the train station, they were there for us every step of the way. Breakfast was also phenomenal, with a nice array of fruit, cereal, and pastries. We loved their coffee and hot chocolate!

Very friendly staffs. Clean room. Has nice complimentary breakfast buffet daily. Very nice and attentive staffs. You can walk to Duomo and other major attractions with ease, about 20-25 minutes. Along the way, you will come across restaurants, bars and coffee shops where locals go. Also there's nice pizzeria right next door. We had great experience staying in this hotel.

2 star rated but 5 star service. Simple rooms, Beds were nice, regular non-touristy neighborhood. staff could not be better. No need to pay for an expensive hotel with the same room.

Family owners property. Everyone was nice, from the ladies from the reception area to the Father and 2 son owners. Breakfast spread was nice. Cappuccino, Cafe Americano and Espresso are great. You will wake up with the smell of freshly baked Cornetto 😄 The room was huge. Comfortable beds, bathroom with toiletries and blow dryer. Please consider the flight of stairs when traveling with huge check in luggage anlthough we were assisted by a lady. Towels and bum towels are changed daily. The area has a good number of Osteria, caffe’s and gelsteria nearby. One of the son’s owner Allan I think even accommodated us for early breakfast since our train to Venezia was a little early. We stayed for 4 nights and it was really lovely. They even requested a cab for us since our esim can only do data calling.

Walkable to the Duomo and historic center in about 10–25 minutes, in a quiet, safe neighborhood with bus routes nearby. A few guests found it a bit far, but most considered it convenient.

I have been working and traveling in Florence for over a month and my job had placed me at different hotels and this was by far my favorite, especially as a solo female traveler in a foreign country. This is a family run business with the absolute sweetest employees who will help you with everything and are so great to chat with. I felt so safe and cared for. The breakfast is amazing and traditional European / Italian with croissants, cheese, ham, yogurt and fresh fruit. I got a cappuccino every morning before work. The bed and room were very comfortable and had everything you could need and was cleaned DAILY by their amazing staff! I will be recommending this hotel to all of my friends and family because it is about a 15 min walk to the duomo so you can escape the craziness of the city center here and the 31 / 32 / 14 / 6 and c bus lines are right outside the hotel which makes getting places super easy. I took the 31/32 bus to the train station easily for a quick beach day trip.

This was an excellent place to stay. Positioned as an easy walk to the piazzas and the heart of Florence but not without local charm! The staff were top rate and always friendly. I always feel awkward as an American tourist who doesn’t know much Italian, but they were so patient as I clumsily bounced between languages. Breakfast was great and the room cleaning was excellent and intuitive. My only suggestion would be a small shelf in the shower for shampoo and soap, but that didn’t damper the experience at all.

The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Breakfast was included which had things as yogurt, breads, deli meats, juices, coffees, cheese spread. The room was good and the A/C cooled the room instantly. The bed was a bit too firm for me so it was a bit of a hard sleep yet to each their own for that. The courtyard is a great place to relax or visit with others…..it was a neat environment to chill in with all the plants and trees inside.
