The maintenance could improve on the cleanliness of the rooms. The location is perfect for all the main attractions. Valentina was exceptional. She manages the bar at the tower and also can be seen at breakfast. She provided a personal tour of the skyline from the top of the tower which made the trip extra special!

We stayed a full week at this hotel. The hotel staff were most helpful and very tolerant of Amercan tourists. (Some American tour groups were a bit loud and obnoxious, trying my patience, but the hotel staff were always courteous). The breakfast was very good with service to match. The tower view from the wine bar was worth the hike.... More

Our room was tasteful with a window that opened up so that we could hear the jazz music from thw wine bar across the street. It really added to the atmosphere. We were a short walk from all of the main attractions and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Would absolutely stay there again!

This hotel was our savior after a bad experience with another hotel. We arrived here at night looking for a standard room. The staff person who helped us gave us the guest suite with a huge private terrace -- for the price of a standard room! This hotel has a tall tower/roof deck with the most impressive views of Florence.... More

My mother and I stayed at Hotel Torre Guelfa for 3 nights. The hotel is beautiful and the staff is friendly and helpful (and english-speaking). The room was quite spacious and the ceilings are very tall (our room appeared to be about 2 stories tall). The view from the tower is breathtaking - the duomo and palazzo vecchio are beautiful...

I think the highlight of this hotel was the rooftop tower where you can get a 360 degree view of Florence. But that's not the only appeal. I was there with friends so I got to see a number of different rooms and I found some of them quite fun. Each one was very different from the other--some large, some... More

Pros: great location, very close to main attractions, less than 100m from Ponte Vecchio. Cons: The rooms have very odd layout and furniture -- uncomfortable and with little space to keep your belongings. The bed was also quite uncomfortable, and I woke up with a back pain. The TV is small. Other reviewers commended the staff -- some people here... More

Highly recommend this hotel! The staff are wonderful. We stayed in suite #206 which worked out great for my husband & me and my teenage daughter and my sister in law. We had our own room with a hall that led to a second bedroom that can be used as a bedroom or a sitting area. We loved the fact... More

My wife and I stayed here for a week in April. We booked far in advance the room with the balcony...this is the third time we have stayed here in the identical room. An outdoor room as large as most living rooms makes this hotel the most special, if any, in all of Florence. Wonderful breakfasts. Three blocks from the... More
