Palazzo D'Oltrarno - Residenza D'Epoca

Great location on the less touristy side of the Arno River near local restaurants and bars. Giulia at the front desk was wonderful as well!! Cons: The air conditioner was not strong enough for the heat wave leaving the room at 26.5C/80F each night. The shower design was modern but didn’t drain well, so flooded the floor during each shower. No one was at the desk at 8am to check me out , pay local taxes, and order a taxi, so that was a little stressful. Pros: very secure & quiet building, legit platform King bed (not 2 beds pushed together) with a firm mattress was heaven for us. The room was huge with old frescoes on the ceiling that was super cool!

The hotel was in a great location - close to all sites - clean / older / washroom /shower great. Going into the property was a little different ! Very secure but a tad spooky !! Once settled in become more comfortable. The noise during the middle of the night from the corridor would wake me up . The housekeeper was very pleasant and accommodating to your needs . Overall 6/10

Great

lovely hotel - very nice staff and beautiful rooms. could be a little loud at night but not a problem. excellent location, super convenient

A really lovely room. We stayed in room 7, a large room overlooking the garden and river. A beautiful fresco on the ceiling and a giant comfortable bed. Lovely large doors and original shutters inside and out of window. Keep the windows closed though - even mid March the mosquito got a good feed on the first night. Bathroom basic but functional and certainly adequate for our needs. The staff were super friendly - especially the guy with the cute Jack Russel dog. The rooms at the front of the hotel might have a more noise from the bars opposite but our room was really peaceful all through the day and night. Getting in on arrival was novel and not well explained before- wait for someone to go though the big automatic door. Then push open the electric gate while lock is still inactive. Go up the stairs - and the small brass plaque on the door is the first indication you are in the right place. I would definitely recommend room 7 to friends going to Florence.
