Hotel Mia Cara & Spa

What guests think

At Hotel Mia Cara & Spa, guests frequently praise the friendly staff and generous breakfast, and many find the rooms comfortable and sometimes spacious, although a minority report maintenance or housekeeping issues that affected their stay.

The location is consistently praised for easy walking to the Duomo and museums and a short walk from the train station, though a few reviews mention late night noise from a nearby bar depending on room placement. Service is widely described as warm and helpful, with staff arranging early check ins, luggage storage, and taxis, but there are rare complaints about responses to room problems. Facilities draw mixed notes: some enjoyed the spa and a small outdoor area, while others found the spa unavailable and the elevator basic, with some stairs required. Overall, expect a straightforward, good value base for exploring Florence.

Convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff. Quiet with good bedding. Good breakfast (typical European style) Some of pictures on Expedia site of hotels amenities were old and not valid anymore. There is no working spa like shown in pictures. Also, external outside sitting areas are very dated compared to pictures

Breakfast variety the best I have ever had at a hotel buffet. Wonderful pastries and scrambled eggs as well as savory and cereals . Held luggage till 8p so simplified the day to tour. Allowed earlier check in at noon and check out 11a. Room renovated. Simple tasteful. The spa looked great. Few blocks from station made it so simple to get transit to Rome and elsewhere to uffizi etc. close to money exchange no fees and fair rate as well as hostels where there are bars. Great for families or groups.elevator and when finished a veranda with views.

Very clean, nice staff, excellent continental breakfast... however we were placed in a room with an unheated bathrroom and a set of stairs inside our room which we had to use to access the loft area. Since we are older, this meant going up and down freezing cold stairs and using basically a very nice unheated outhouse before scaling all those stairs to the bedroom (which was hard to keep warm with an unheated lower level below.) The website pictures certainly did not show that.

Comfy beds but memory foam pillows get hot. Buffet breakfast covered all taste and the staff were extremely helpful. Very nice three star hotel and convenient place to stay if walking distance to Florence centre is important.

There were bed bugs in the room. We found a bed bug running in the pillow in the morning (see the attached picture). Reported to the owner but instead of apologizing he just made excuses. The room we stayed was very smelly like sewage smell. Hotel refused to change the room when we reported it. There is a next door bar which is extremely loud every night till 3-4am.
