Hotel Monna Lisa

The peaceful garden for escaping from the hub-bub of Florence was an absolute delight. The breakfast spread was absolutely exceptional. Sadly, no restaurant.

Charming old Monastery converted into a Hotel. Great garden setting for lounging in peace with a drink. Good breakfast. Friendly staff. Excellent location. No Pool, no restaurant, although Expedia mentioned something like that in error, I think. Anyway, local dining had more international options in case you get tired of the typical trattoria menu.

I can’t find the words to describe the charm of this magical hotel. It’s tucked away on a narrow street very close to the main shops and attractions of historic Florence. When you first enter, you see a beautiful open area with painted ceilings, which opens up to a spacious lobby area, which leads to an open garden courtyard. Seriously you won’t believe this garden! You are just meters from the bustling city, but it’s so quiet and peaceful. Our room even had a balcony overlooking the garden. If you are trying to find a boutique hotel that looks and feels exactly the way you think Florence looks from tv and movies, this is the one you want! We chose it because it had a really low price on Expedia, and we were a little worried about what it would be like since it was listed at a lower price compared to others on the site, so we really couldn’t believe our luck when we arrived and saw this place. It is exactly what we wanted. And the breakfast - other reviewers have written about how great it is. It is even better than you can imagine. A buffet of pastries, breads, cakes, eggs, meats, cheeses, cereal, yogurt, juices, amazing coffee, served in the garden patio by friendly staff. In the evenings there is a bar that will serve you drinks and snacks in the garden. We would definitely stay here again.

The Monna Lisa Hotel is a charming, historic, haven situated within the historic district of Firenze. The staff were helpful and very friendly. The bar and garden was laid back and just what is needed after a day walking among the many historic sites. The daily breakfast, which was included in the bill, had many options and was provided by friendly staff in a beautiful setting. Our family loved it and will return!!

This property surrounds multiple gardens and is located in Florence away from the maddening crowds. One can walk to the most popular attractions within minutes. Hotel Staff was extremely helpful in securring a taxi at 5:00 AM to the airport. Unfortunately, due to our brief stay, we were unable to enjoy the hotel's breakfast buffet and gardens during daylight hours. A tragically short stay at a classy hotel.

THE BEST HOTEL IN FLORENCE. STAFF IS GREAT, BREAKFAST WAS SUPERB! THE GARDEN AREA IS A GREAT PLACE TO RELAX AND CHAT. HOPE TO GO BACK TO FLORENCE AGAIN SOON AND THIS IS MY HOTEL NOW

A rave for the garden! What a lovely place to sit and read or talk with friends in between sightseeing excursions.

The Mona Lisa is a hidden gem. The hotel is beautiful in its old world style, with roses and flowers and even blooming citrus trees in its interior and quiet courtyard. A delicious and abundant buffet is served every morning in a stately dining room overlooking the garden. I found the staff attentive and helpful always. Don’t miss this charming spot on your next visit to Florence!

El sitio ideal para pecnortar en Florencia. Despertar y encontrarte ese jardín es algo maravilloso. El servicio es maravilloso y el desayuno de nota. Además, tiene la ubicación perfecta.

Very beautiful hotel. I loved the garden area, same as the pictures! Staff was very nice especially Laura which is very helpful and friendly! The hotel is not far from restaurant and the chapel.

Angeblich ist gerade an dem Tag der Anreise 36 Grad, die Klimaanlage ausgefallen. Wir bekamen ein Zimmer mit einer absolut komischen Toilette, die Badewanne wahr total dreckig. Die Übernachtung wahr eine Zumutung. Wie dieses Hotel 4 Sterne bekommen hat, für mich fraglich!

The hotel within walking distance to all the attractions. The property is well kept. Our room was awesome. Loved it. The staff service was exceptional. Love the atmosphere. I will return next year.

De service in dit hotel is werkelijk fantastisch! Echt iedereen doet zijn best om het verblijf zo aangenaam mogelijk te maken voor de gasten. Er wordt enorm hard gewerkt om de service op zeer hoog niveau te houden. Daarnaast is het een prachtig historisch gebouw, met een zeer goed onderhouden tuin, waar het heerlijk toeven is. Het ontbijt is zeer gevarieerd en van hoge kwaliteit. En het hotel ligt op loopafstand van de Duomo, in het centrum van Florence. Wat wil je nog meer! Ik kom zeker terug!

Very beautiful hotel with clean rooms

Horrible place to stay. The triple-bed room was next to the lobby and kitchen. A lot of noise throughout the night. Breakfast is just okay. A lot of dead bugs on the bathroom floor.

The property is beautiful and well kept. The staff is friendly and professional. We got complimentary slippers and each day that the room was made, the staff left chocoloates on our pillows an two bottles of water. The breakfast in the morning is super complete with eggs, bacon, a variety of breads, pastries and desserts, ham, cheese, and ceral, along with juices. The staff will bring you coffee or tea according to your request. I had a capucchino every morning! In the evening, we sat outside on the courtyard and enjoyed a couple of spritz. The hotel is situated close enough to tourist attractions an great restaurants so that you could walk, but you can easily have the hotel call you a taxi is you prefer. Keep in mind that this is a multi0-building property and some of the rooms may not have access to an elevator, so make sure you ask if you cannot handle stairs.

Beautiful palazzo very elegant setting. A little dated but still lovely. Breakfast is great but no restaurant at dinner time. Walk to great restaurants in five minutes. Reasonable price for such a lovely property

Excellent location, friendly & helpful staff. Room was good size, bed comfortable just could do with update. Breakfast fantastic & they have beautiful garden setting. Would recommend this hotel if staying in Florence.

My daughter and I stayed here and absolutely loved it. The hotel has a very classic charm with a beautiful garden. We were greeted upon entry and shown around the property, then to our room. We loved the history of the place and the authentic Italian charm. Our room was spacious and quiet with comfortable beds. There were plenty of toiletries. They did a turn down service in the evenings and put a little chocolate on our beds, along with a stepping mat and house slippers next to the bed. For breakfast there is a very nice buffet breakfast that had so many options and the staff is very kind and attentive. My daughter and I were so sad to leave when it was time to check out. We absorb loved our time staying at the Monna Lisa hotel. If you are looking for an authentic Italian feel for your stay, this is the place for you.

Absolutely fantastic hotel! Impeccable and friendly service. The staff went out of their way to make is welcome. Close to all the main sites. Rooms face a beautiful garden and are quiet. Hotel is 5 minutes away from 2 supermarkets as well as the synagogue and kosher establishements.

Far from the train station but a stunning hotel that is a converted monestary. Very quirky designed rooms and layout. Beautiful grounds and dining area with a great breakfast. Staff very helpful and attentive. Loved our stay here.

We had a very pleasant stay at the Hotel Monna Lisa.It is a centrally located oasis in Firenze. The decor is amazing especially in the wonderful garden area. We were lucky enough to get one of the rooms with private balcony and it was very well-appointed and comfortable. It was such a joy to return to a quiet cool beautiful space after being in the hectic summertime in the city.

Initially we were on a room we did not like but later they moved us to another room which we liked. The staff is very friendly and they are accommodating when you ask them for something. Ramid at the breakfast serving area was very nice and provided great service to us. Thank you!

L’établissement est vraiment magnifique, super service, super petit déjeuner, cadre très agréable, belle chambre aux calme. Vraiment excellent

Horrible place to stay. The triple-bed room was next to the lobby and kitchen. A lot of noise throughout the night. Breakfast is just okay. A lot of dead bugs on the bathroom floor.

Properly is very beautiful and the staff ver friendly. We upgraded to a second floor room with a balcony overlooking their garden which was lovely. Staff extremely helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent.

This was a perfect hotel during a road trip thru Europe. Picked the hotel due for its magnificent decor and history. Staff is very attentive to our needs and assisted us for reservations to museums and restaurants during our 3 day 2 night stay. Excellent location near to all major POI. Public parking less than 2 minutes walk.

Whenever I go back to Florence, I will never stay anywhere else. The attention to detail, the excellent service from everyone that works there. My room was old world charming. I loved the garden. The buffet breakfast was the best I've ever had at a hotel. I highly recommend this establishment. If I could give them 15 stars I would. Thank you for making my trip so memorable.

The front desk staff were not overly helpful for reservations and answering questions. The bar wait staff were very good. Friendly and attentive. Room was nicely sized and had all amenities Location was very convenient to the hotspots in Florence

We loved everything about this hotel. The hotel itself is beautiful, all of the staff is incredibly friendly and the location is perfect. We stayed in 3 hotels throughout our trip and this was our favorite!

Was charged a extra $210 a night when we arrived at the hotel and was not budgeted for and this extremely affected our trip. We had no other choice, but to pay the money we had nowhere else to go, and everything else was budgeted. They said this was due to it, being an extra person in the room, myself, and my daughter, which was stated on the reservation. They stated this was due to her insurance reasons, and that me and my daughter were not able to share the space without it being the extra fee.
