After reading other reviews on difficulty of locating the hotel I looked on streetview before travelling. We arrived at 11.30pm and had no difficulty at all in finding it. The hotel was less than 5 minutes walk from the SMN station. All the main attractions were just short walks from the hotel so it is very central. We found the... More

I took my wife to Tuscany for our 30th anniversary--the weather was perfect, the hotel was great, the food was fabulous, and the wine was Chianti. The Aprile hotel was centrally located to all the major cathedrals, the major train terminal, and the Arno River. If you want a great location for a vacation to Florence this is a terrific... More

Stayed in this rundown hotel for four nights, but never understood how it has earned its 4-star rating. The entrance is from a shabby noisy street directly into a cramped reception. There are almost no sitting area or anything you could call a lobby - just a shabby bar with a small number of uncomfortable chairs. Looked depressing to us.... More

Dear Guest, The Palazzo Dal Borgo belongs to my family since 1952. We always took care of it with great attention and love. The most of our guests are completely happy, they come back and suggest the hotel to their friends. But, of course, this is always a subjective point of view. Concerning to the wi-fi we remember we called... More

Our family of three, including our 11 year old, had a ball at the dal Borgo. It was easy to find from the station, a very in keeping with Florence's spirit. Had some quirky corridors and some nooks and crannies, but these were delightful especially to our daughter. Do you want something with character or a tower? those looking for... More

Our room was of a reasonable size, the bathroom had plenty of space and we had a small outside terrace area with table and chairs to sit at. The staff were excellent and... More

Stayed last week of July for 3 nights and was somewhat disappointed. The room had a good view, but very poorly decorated. We had a creepy feeling of staying in someone's flat, not a hotel... It looked like furniture was collected from different garage sales: odd non-matching design, disgusting stains. I brought it to staff's attention, that I could not... More

Just returned from a 7 day trip here. Spacious rooms in a historic and charming building. Very vintage decor and beautiful ceilings. Breakfast was delightful and service was great! Servers remember your name as a result of such a quaint establishment. Very convenient to station. Would definitely return. More
