You can't beat the location and the view! It is a short walk from the train station, easy to find with Kelly's instructions. Short walk to both the Uffizi and the Accademia, both of which Kelly had reserved admission times for us in advance of our arrival. The room was nice,not big but clean and comfortable. Our bathroom was teeny-tiny... More

We stayed in a great room with a view of the Duomo. You cannot beat the location and the price of this hotel. The breakfast was nice, bed comfortable and the noise canceling shutters were amazing! Kelly helped us book tickets to the Academia and was very helpful and friendly. Just recommended this place to a friend of mine. Loved... More

A 2 night stay in February 2013 Location; The hotel was in the main square opposite the cathedral/duomo and within a short walk from the main tourist attractions, so an excellent location for those wanting to be central. It was on the third floor of a large communal building which wasn't clearly sign-posted. It wasn't difficult to find, but it... More

We stayed 3 nights at Soggiorno Battistero in December 2012 and it was great! Yes there are stairs (68 stairs so if you have trouble with stairs this is not the place for you ) but it is really part of the experience of staying in this great old building. A view of the Duomo from our window, Wow! Breakfast... More

I stayed here 2 nights (11/24-11/25/12). Soggiorno Battistero B&B is ideally located. The owners (Kelly and Lucas) are very friendly and trustworthy. I read reviews before staying here...very positive. I had no problem finding this place or with my stay. I read others mention the stairs issue, on 3rd floor, no lift. It did not bother me a bit, but... More

We stayed at the b&b two nights. It is located in the piazza del duomo, about a 5-10 min walk from the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia. Rooms have a view of the baptistery of the duomo and the square. The rooms themselves are basic, but large and clean. The owners, who speak fluent English (as well as Italian), were... More

My wife and I stayed there in September of 2011. We really, really enjoyed our time in Florence. This B&B could not be located any better. Our room faced the Baptistry and had just amazing views. The windows were very much sound proof and couldn't hear a thing when closed. If you don't mind the style of a European B&B... More

My husband and I stayed in Room 1 at Soggiomo Battistero in October, 2012. Although we were a little concerned upon entering the building and seeing the scaffolding for the elevator construction and the number of steps up, the climb was well worth it. Our room, which was very nice, looked out over the Bapistry and the entrance to the... More

My daughter and I just came back from a 10 day trip to Umbria including two days in Florence. We booked this hotel at Rick Steves' book recommendation and it did not disappoint! We also got a 5% discount for paying cash which was nice. The location and price cannot be beat! Our view overlooked the baptistry and duomo! They... More

We'd read all the reviews before booking so were prepared for the stair thing - and let's face it, once the suitcases are up there it's really no big deal. There was work going on on the elevator and this will be a huge plus for them in future. We had a (huge) room without a view and it was... More
