Found this location on tripadvisor search - i work for a large hotel company and my properties were sold out over the dates i was in florence. Black 5 had great rates and the locations was very central. We arrived early and our room was ready... the room was very nice, simple and had the basics. to back track a... More

This place is newly renovated in a great location! It was a short taxi ride from the train station (I believe it was less than 20 Euros) and a short ride to the airport as well. It was walking distance to everything. The only complaint I would have is the noise at night if you stay on the weekends, since... More

We stayed at the Black 5 in February for 2 days. There are a lot of good reviews for this hotel, but I thought it was only average. The room we were in looked nothing like the pictures. The pictures look 10 times more modern. Our room was pretty old and shabby looking. It was spacious with a big bed... More

We had the best stay at the Black 5 Florence suite. We were originally booked to stay somewhere else, but were informed that we would be moved to the Black 5 because of some kind of problem at the other B&B. They let us know well in advance and we had all of the amenities and more that we would... More

I stayed here for my honeymoon with my wife. It is a great little B&B. It is clean, friendly and close to everything. We only took the taxi once during our week long stay in Florence and we took the taxi from the train station to the B&B. When we left we walked because it was that close. My only... More

A friend & I stayed here for 4 nights in November. Staff are present from 2-6 for check in (you'll be charged for later check in, but a 4 hr window is plenty of time) We stayed in the Michelangelo room. A little tacky, but who cares? The bed and pillows were the best of the B&Bs we've stayed in... More

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon. The hosts treated us very well. The room was incredible and the view was awesome, especially on the rooftop for breakfast. Breakfast was delicious including the chocolate pancakes. One night the hot water went out, but they fixed it right away and provided us with a bottle of champagne. Check in... More

My husband and I stayed at Black 5 for a few nights in September and were very pleased. The room was stylishly decorated, clean and fairly large and the bathroom was large as well. The bed was also very, very comfortable. Location-wise, it was ideal. Many trattorias nearby as well as some more casual panini spots, etc. We were able... More

I loved the location and the building. It's not a typical hotel but that's want I wanted, to feel we had a mini apartment/room in a building frequented by locals. The triple was roomy and comfortable. Good beds, storage and bathroom. My three year old had a comfy sofabed and loved the space. I liked the views out to the... More
