Across recent reviews, Hotel San Marco is praised for friendly, helpful staff and a central Prato location near the main square, restaurants, and the train to Florence, with many finding it comfortable and good value for short stays.
Rooms are simple and a bit dated, sometimes small or street-noisy, though double glazing and effective air conditioning help. Breakfast is generally well liked, and cleanliness is consistently praised. There is no on-site parking, but public parking nearby is convenient for many, while a few found it hard to find or the hotel harder to reach. Expect a straightforward, centrally based stay with warm service.

L'hotel si trova molto vicino al centro storico di Prato, in una zona comoda. C'è anche un parcheggio pubblico (a pagamento) vicinissimo. Lo abbiamo usato solo come punto d'appoggio perché stavamo fuori tutto il giorno, e per le nostre esigenze è stato perfetto. Check-in veloce, personale cordiale e presente H24. La stanza era di giuste dimensioni, con un bagno e una doccia spaziosi. Bagno, camera e letto erano puliti. La struttura non è recentissima e in qualche punto si nota "lo scorrere del tempo" , ma nulla di problematico considerato che non stiamo parlando di un hotel di lusso: mi interessa il fatto che fosse pulito e il letto comodo. Al bagno i saponi sono in dispenser riempibili, scelta più sostenibile a livello ambientale, apprezzata. Nella zona, soprattutto il sabato sera, c'era molta confusione, ma dalla stanza con le finestre chiuse (l'aria condizionata è molto efficiente) non abbiamo sentito nulla. Unica pecca è che dalle persiane entra un po' di luce al mattino. Non abbiamo usufruito della colazione. In generale consigliato per chi ha bisogno di un posto centrale e pratico per dormire, con una buona pulizia e un prezzo fattibile.

Hotel básico, con instalaciones algo antiguas, pero con todas las comodidades necesarias, bien cuidado y situado en pleno centro. Todo estaba muy limpio. Desayuno aceptable. La Srta que estaba en recepción era muy amable. Nos explicó perfectamente donde podíamos aparcar, ya que hay un parking público a 2 minutos del hotel, de precio muy asequible (1€/hora hasta las 20:00 y la noche es gratis, al igual que los festivos). Además, pedí si nos podían hacer un té y nos facilitaron una tetera eléctrica, tazas, sobres de te... Lo recomiendo

We used the hotel as base to explore Florence. The hotel was clean, quiet and had good a/c. Hotel staff was very helpful in finding parking and giving directions around the neighborhood. In the summer parking is not an issue, you can park almost anywhere. Breakfast was good. Overall we had a good stay. Hotel is good for travel with kids. Also reasonable price compared to other options in the area.

Very nice hotel for a short stay. The room was very clean and the breakfast was great. Staff friendly and helpful. Perfect location as it's just around the corner from the main town square. There was some road noise outside with the windows open, but double glazing and air conditioning meant that wasn't an issue.

I stayed here twice. Found this hotel a couple years back, and both the hotel and the town is nice. Very helpful and friendly staff. Basic hotel, and a little tired, but as long as it's clean and I can have a good sleep, it's enough for me. It's approx 10 min. walk from Prato Centrale railway station, and only takes about 22 min. from Firenze Santa Maria Novella station.

We had a great experience here. It was clean, with great staff, and had good complimentary breakfast every morning. What more can you ask for? It’s also in the heart of Prato, a fairly quiet community, with easy access to Florence. The train station is a 10 minute walk away. Pay 2.80 Euros for a one-way ticket from Prato Centrale to Firenze Santa Maria Novella station. The trains back to Prato run pretty late as well, so you don’t have to worry about rushing back to the hotel. If we were to come back to Florence (and vicinity) I would definitely consider staying here again.

Prato city centre hasn’t got many accommodation options and this hotel, on paper was the pick of them. Don’t know how it got its 9.2 rating? We did get to check in a little earlier which was fantastic. We dumped our bags and went out for a bite. When we returned, we realised they gave us a room with a double bed instead of a queen that was booked. We went to reception to ask if we could change to the room we paid for and the man behind the desk became hostile stating we should have told them earlier. After saying we only just put our bags in the room, we were allowed to move to a room with a queen bed - that we paid for. This room was in the middle of being renovated. It was also very noisy from 8.00am onwards from housekeeping and other guests. Good location, but would not stay here again.

When we returned, we realised they gave us a room with a double bed instead of a queen that was booked. We went to reception to ask if we could change to the room we paid for and the man behind the desk became hostile stating we should have told them earlier. After saying we only just put our bags in the room, we were allowed to move to a room with a queen bed - that we paid for. This room was in the middle of being renovated. It was also very noisy from 8.00am onwards from housekeeping and other guests. Good location, but would not stay here again.

We used the hotel as base to explore Florence. The hotel was clean, quiet and had good a/c. Hotel staff was very helpful in finding parking and giving directions around the neighborhood. In the summer parking is not an issue, you can park almost anywhere. Breakfast was good. Overall we had a good stay. Hotel is good for travel with kids. Also reasonable price compared to other options in the area.

Location
Central in Prato near the main square, restaurants and shops, and roughly a 10-minute walk to the train station for easy access to Florence; a few guests found it harder to reach or farther than expected.

We had a great experience here. It was clean, with great staff, and had good complimentary breakfast every morning. What more can you ask for? It’s also in the heart of Prato, a fairly quiet community, with easy access to Florence. The train station is a 10 minute walk away. Pay 2.80 Euros for a one-way ticket from Prato Centrale to Firenze Santa Maria Novella station. The trains back to Prato run pretty late as well, so you don’t have to worry about rushing back to the hotel. If we were to come back to Florence (and vicinity) I would definitely consider staying here again.

I stayed here twice. Found this hotel a couple years back, and both the hotel and the town is nice. Very helpful and friendly staff. Basic hotel, and a little tired, but as long as it's clean and I can have a good sleep, it's enough for me. It's approx 10 min. walk from Prato Centrale railway station, and only takes about 22 min. from Firenze Santa Maria Novella station.

Very nice hotel for a short stay. The room was very clean and the breakfast was great. Staff friendly and helpful. Perfect location as it's just around the corner from the main town square. There was some road noise outside with the windows open, but double glazing and air conditioning meant that wasn't an issue.

I only stayed 1 night but it was comfortable and had a great night of sleep. The location was perfect. Close to the piazza, restaurants and it’s only 10 minutes or maybe less to the station.

Quarto era ok, limpo, mas travesseiros não eram bons, nem a cama. Poderia ter uma luz mais forte no quarto. Banheiro pequeno. Chuveiro muito bom, mas o ralo do Box não dá conta e quase inunda. Café da manhã ok. Poderia ter ovo mexido também como opção. Mas o croassant e um outro folhado salgado estavam muito bons. Atendimento foi excelente. No geral foi uma boa estadia

The best location possible for exploring Prato. We were able to walk to everything downtown. We felt very safe there, also. The hotel was clean. Staff was extremely nice and accommodating. I wouldn't say that the room was the best ever, but all of our needs were satisfied by it. Offsite parking was available and convenient. If we were to go back to Prato, which we will, we would definitely stay there again. Highly recommendable.
