Boboli Living

The location was perfect for us!! The Altrarno is a lovely neighborhood and close to the center for Firenze. Being right in front of Pitti Palace was a treat. Many restaurants and shops nearby as well. It was very hot the week we stayed so the AC was not enough to beat the heat. A minor inconvenience. The room and shared bathroom were clean and nice.

Booked a room not realising it was a shared bathroom. This was my own fault not the hotel. Due to sharing a bathroom it was not clean at times especially the toilet, also shower has mold on tiles and felt dirty. The bedroom was clean and bed/pillows were comfortable. Only downside was that we could not open the window for fresh air. The receptionist was very friendly and location was excellent. I would stay again but would be care to not to select shared bathroom.

The hotel is very European and has antique charm. The elevator is very tiny and only works with folding doors closed. Only one person at a time with luggage can fit on it. The manager Huliette was awesome and very accommodating.

Stayed at this property for two nights whilst exploring Florence, it is located right opposite the Pitti Palace which lots of restaurents along the road for easy access to dinner/breakfast. We found the location perfect is it across the city from the station but walkable in 20 mins, and two minutes from the Ponte Vecchio - lovely location for Piazza Michelangelo and the Boboli gardens and the across the city to see all the sights without being in too busy an area. The room was perfectly suitable for a two night stay with a comfy bed and bathroom facilities, a little balcony and very authentic italian living, it does not have a hotel feel - the entrance is on the main street so easy to find when you know what to look for (Look for the Door Number 8 and press the buzzer for the reception). Use the crazy little lift to access reception on floor 3 and then your room. The area felt safe to walk around in the evening. I do not think it would be as suitable if travelling with children or if you are looking for an upmarket hotel feel, but for adults and couples if you are looking for a cute place for a few nights with a true Florence experience then i would recommend this place,

While the staff were friendly, I would not stay here again. The lights didn’t turn on in the hallway so I had to use my phone’s flashlight to climb to the eighth floor. There’s an elevator, but it looked like a rickety old thing that I didn’t feel safe taking up upstairs. And I couldn’t figure out how to open the door to even check in. I only got in because two guests were coming out. I also did not like sharing a bathroom, but I knew that going in ahead of time so I expected to share, but those days are over. And the room was tiny.

Thw property is fine, but the luck of bathrooms is a problem. Too many rooms for one bathroom? Price is also very high for the room in comparison. The place is great , more privecy would have been good.

It’s a beautiful ancient building Big rooms and very clean. Only concern was shared bathroom Some guest don’t understand how that concept works and that became annoying sometimes

Good location. Old building experience, two person ride elevator, dark halls, etc.

Shared bathroom and very minimal ( spartan) room. The elevator is from a 1930’s era and will barely accommodate one person and one piece of luggage. The location is fabulous across from the Palazzo Pitti and just down the via from the Punta Vecchio. Street restaurants are plentiful.

Great location, nice size room…. But shared bathroom and tiny elevator. It’s a basic room in an old building. Has all the basic things you need, except for the bathroom situation.

Style, shabby chic, focus on the shabby. Shower in need of replacing and a bit of attention to the general upkeep of the room. It was clean, bed was comfortable and clean towels and bedding. It is located close to the main attractions and was easy to get to from the railway station. Was good value for the money.

No one there for checkin, no key, took 2.5 hours to get to room. Room was not what was booked. Photos wrong, room smelled of damp/ sewer. Bathroom was seperate down corridor, ac was noisy and leaked water over floor.

Great location. All museums and restaurants were in walking distance. The train station was only 15 minute walk. My room was cleaned everyday and the staff were very helpful.

Upon arrival we noticed a mold smell, turned on the air conditioning and a dehumidifier in the room (not a good sign). We then went for dinner hoping the air conditioning would alleviate the heat and smell. Upon return, no improvement. Reported to reception and corporate WhatsApp, no solution. Entire stay 25+ ° C and mold smell.

We've stayed here a few times as it's very close to places we want to visit. The problem is the rooms need updating and kept much cleaner than they are at present.

It was clean and quiet - great for 2 person stay studio. No kitchen or way to get water other than bathroom. Bed was comfortable and slept well. About 20min walk to train, close to shopping and all that you need is near. Bathroom shared with other tenants down the hallway which was a little busy in the evening when getting ready for bed and showering. Overall good place to stay. Very good about holding our luggage for a bit after we checked out which was very convenient.

It’s a good choice hotel if you like dirty floors, rude manager, leaking radiator/heater and the back doors that are not closing. Stay safe!

The property was difficult to find. When we arrived there were mattresses that blocked the entire hallway and we were not given notice that the property was under renovation. We were greeted by a very unfriendly receptionist who was on the phone during our entire interaction with her. In the evening 3 creepy men knocked on our door and said they needed to change our bed frame. They came into our room and touched our bed sheets. We were also not given advanced notice that this would happen. Our visit ended with another receptionist not being able to print our receipt. Very sketchy. Do not stay here.

The hotel’s centrality makes this property an immediate choice for me. I loved that we could walk everywhere and that public transportation was also easily accessible. Our room was well equipped with all the basics, and not to mention very clean. Only downside would be the shower; it was VERY small and in need of some remodeling. Apart from that, you can’t beat this place!

Beautiful hotel. Excellent views, so springing extra for the balcony is worth it! It is definitely an old building, which comes with quirks and smells of an old building, but thats part of the charm.

My biggest complaint was the WiFi wouldn't deliver internet. It caused me a huge problem. Almost didn't hey checked into our next lodging.

The place needs a renovation. Rooms are old and the stairwell is poorly lit at night. Location is good to all attractions in Florence and bathroom also decent.

Nice place but the internet doesn’t work

The room was large, clean and comfortable. The property is in a great location. The biggest issue was that it was noisy. There was a dog that barked every day/night. You could hear people coming and going and their conversations in the hallway in the evenings.

The walls and doors were thin and you could hear everything from the halls.. including every time the elevator moved. there wasn’t a comforter on the bed, just a top sheet :/

This condo had the cutest little balcony with the most amazing view of Florence rooftops. I felt like I was in a movie. The room was actually a bedroom along with a small entrance area with access to the balcony. That entrance area was great for a second suitcase and served as a sort of dressing area for us. The bathroom was dated but quite large by Europe standards. The only issue was the water pressure was quite low. The elevator was small but really nice to have since we were on the 5th floor. The location was across from the Pitti courtyard right next to several very nice restaurants and gelato places but it was also very quiet. It was about a 10 minute walk to the main area with the Duomo. It was a nice walk across the famous bridge with all the upscale stores. I do with wish there was a coffee maker - they only had instant but thats also typical in Europe. If you are looking for an authentic feel in a good location and dont mind an older building and some quirks, you will love this hotel.

I liked that the room and bathroom were clean and the place is quiet to rest. But I definitely would not consider this place as a hotel, as there is no customer service at all. You only have one front desk staff from 9 am to 5 pm, so if you need anything after those hours, you are on your own. The hallways, stairs and whole place were very dark, the elevator old and if something were to happen to you, there is no one to reach or call. I didn't like the experience here at all, and I wouldn't repeat it again nor would recommend it.

Another comfortable and very well located place. The hotel is very good, the staff are super friendly and helpful, plenty of restaurants and cafeterias nearby, you can go anywhere on foot, super good location. Highly recommended.

WARNING: Do NOT drive here with a car unless you have a permission from the city! The location is INSIDE a "Zona Traffico Limitado". If you enter with a vehicle without permission, you may have to pay a three-digit-fine. The hotel is listed with "parking available". So, we assumed parking was available and drove here by car. As stupid tourists, we had no idea about the ZTL and after a long drive, we most probably entered the restricted area by driving to this hotel. We're currently waiting if we receive a fine or not. Anyway: The hotel should not have listed themselves as "parking available", which is by the way not at all the case. It's impossible to park here unless you have made a reservation in a completely separate garage. There was no information about the parking upfront, no warning, no guideline, no nothing. So, we were driving around for two hours and parked a good 20 minute walk away. Great, what a failure. But that wasn't all: The reception was NOT available even though it was listed as available. We arrived at closed doors. A "random" guy let me in after no one answered the door bell, and in hard-to-understand english explained that I can take an envelope with a key and go to the room. No ID asked, no checkin procedure. Next morning, we were supposed to checkin. The lady seemed rather uninterested. At the morning of the leave, we received the info that the reception was closed the day before at 5pm. What a failure. Top 3 WORST hotels I've ever had.

It was ok but there’s an Italian lady at the reception that was super rude, didn’t let us use the toilet or call an Italian company at the airport, very rude with us unfortunately.

受付係が18:00までしかいなく17:30に到着しても何も対応がありませんでした 宿泊施設で18:00迄しか受付がいないなんて考えられません

The receptionist was very helpful in helping us get taxis and rec

Great location and staff. Clean hotel. Walkable.

Great location

I wanted a budget room near the city center so I knew there would not be many amenities. The bed was comfortable, the a/c worked, and there was an elevator. The location was right across from the Pitti Palace and there were plenty of good restaurants nearby.

Excellent location across Palazzo Pitti, quiet rooms, lots of nearby restaurants, and walking distance to the wonderful vistas Florence has to offer, plus highly courteous and helpful staff! Highly recommended!!

This was a great location for our trip and we enjoyed walking around the area. We ate dinner at Osteria le Pietre which was great and got breakfast a few doors down at a nice cafe. It's right across from the Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens which we did one day.

Chambre au plafond à fresque face au Palais Pitti, chambre très propre, hôtes très aimables, serviables et de bons conseils pour les bonnes adresses du quartier. Voucher pour le petit-déjeuner sur la place.

This is a great location that is very convenient to explore Florence. The Pitti Palace is right across the street and less congested and more enjoyable than the Uffizi Gallery. There are restaurants nearby and a laundromat within walking distance. The staff was very helpful. The bed was comfortable, there was a TV and an electric kettle to make tea and coffee in our room. The only fault was our bathroom had a large step down from the shower, use caution!

The ground floor courtyard was lovely. Yes and coffee facilities were good!!
