Boutique Hotel Hugo

What guests think

Across reviews, Boutique Hotel Hugo is praised for very clean, comfortable rooms and a tasty served breakfast, in a quiet, walkable location near the Duomo and Accademia with convenient tram links to the airport.

A recurring caveat is access: there is no elevator and reaching the hotel requires climbing multiple flights of stairs, which many found challenging with heavy luggage or mobility issues, though staff often help carry bags. Rooms offer effective air conditioning; sizes vary, and several guests mentioned the lack of an in room safe. Reception is not staffed 24/7, though assistance is attentive during operating hours. Expect a welcoming, simple base if stairs are not a concern.

Great hotel. Location was convenient and quiet. Hotel staff was absent most the time. The 4 flights stairs was a killer. And lighting in the stairwell was almost dangerous. Breakfast was great. Room and beds weee awesome and comfortable.

Hotel is on the third floor, you will need to climb 6 flights. It wasn’t a problem for us, but it will be for those with health issues. There’s no elevator. This is the only negative point. The rest about this Boutique Hotel is only positive. I’m not sure why this hotel has only one star. I would easily give them at least three stars! Super clean, friendly staff, tasty breakfast, very quiet. I would definitely recommend if you prefer to stay away from the noisy, touristy streets of Florence. We walked from this hotel everywhere; so if you like walking, this place is perfect. Will stay there again!

This says 5 steps to reach hotel, it’s 5 FLIGHTS of stairs. Very misleading and deceptive. Someone did help carry bags but it was miserable having to go up and down after walking all day. They should be honest in their description. I would have NEVER booked this hotel if I’d known it required this much stairs.

There is no elevator and there are two flight of stairs to get to the hotel, however upon arrival, the staff carried our suitcases up and when checking out, the staff carried our suitcases down the stairs. We would definitely stay here again.

This property was extremely clean! And staff was amazing!!! The breakfast was more than i had expected and was wonderful! Only two things to note. There is no room safe and you have to climb 55 steps to get to the rooms. Which isnt uncommon in Italy but be aware if you have trouble climbing and hauling suitcases.

Breakfast good in lovely setting. Room nice. A/C included. No room safe. Stairs were fine for us but may be issue for others as 4 flights. Good for one night stay, but very limited hotel on one floor of a multi floor apartment complex, so would not want to stay for longer duration. Basic, but functional for what we needed for one night

The hotel itself is very nice and looks recently remodeled. Breakfast is offered right next to the reception and has good offerings. Building access is easy although it is up some stairs (55 or so). Rooms are clean and updated, but a bit on the smaller side. The location is about 5 minutes from the Accademia dell'Arte (David statue) but 10 to the Duomo. Food options are also about 5 minutes away and increase as you get closer to the Duomo area. Overall nice hotel on a quiet street, but a bit out of the action so be comfortable with some walking.

The staff is very friendly and kind, however the hotel is, in my opinion, incredibly overpriced for what it offers. Three flights of stairs with our luggage was difficult. Rocco did help us with the bags on arrival, but our checkout was not during front desk working hours. There is no 24 hour front desk staff, which I thought was strange, and we needed assistance on our last night due to our taxi cancelling, and front desk had left for the day. The room is fine, nothing special. Good location. Breakfast was ok, but underwhelming compared to what I expected based on the reviews I had read. I think there are much better options in the area at the same price point.

The property itself is very good. The people who work there are very nice especially the lady who is there to greet you there, help you with your luggages. I wish I remembered her name. The breakfast is great and enough. Cute breakfast room. Very convenient to the center and to transportation. Close to Santa Maria novalle train station walkable if there are not item you are carrying. The only complaint is the property is on the third floor of a building and there is Only stairs. One of our travel companion had to stay in another hotel. The property mention about the stair access but doesn’t tell you the flight of stairs. It is not for people who can’t climb stairs or people with heavy luggages. Overall our stay was excellent!!

We had a fantastic stay at Boutique Hotel Hugo! The location was great, just 10mins walk from the Duomo but quiet at night. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Rocco and the staff were really welcoming and breakfast was very nice with a selection of pastries, savoury sandwiches and good coffee. The hotel is up a couple of flights of stairs, so I couldn't recommend it for anyone who might have trouble with mobility, but it was fine for us and Rocco helped us with our suitcase when we arrived. Overall, a perfect base for our trip to Florence!
