Though it's about a 15 minute walk to Ponte Veccio (which leads you to all the main attractions in Florence), Hotel David is not to be beat. The staff here was amazing. They greeted us in perfect English and explained everything from how to take the bus to Ponte Veccio to what sites to see. They also explained the "happy hour" offered everyday (wine, juice, and appetizers), the mini-bar policy (everything in it is free the first time!), and breakfast times (which included eggs, cereal, danish and more). The room was very clean and in a quiet neighborhood. Some rooms have balconies, but even without (as was ours) the room was a good size and more than comfortable). The amenities were fabulous as explained above, plus there is free wi-fi (and a shared computer if you need) and you get one free international call a day per room. Honestly, when we return to Florence, this will be the first place we would look to book!
