    The only thing missing is the provision of meals, but we knew that when we booked.

    The hotel is ideally located. 5-10 mins walk from centre (Duomo). Rooftop Bar & lounge were excellent! Quiet, relaxing & fantastic views. Rooms were a good size & views were excellent. Breakfast was lovely. Plenty of choice, bright room & again lovely views.

    Everything exceeded my expectations, there wasn’t a single thing I would change.

    What can I say about this hotel? There are no real words to describe my experience here. The Antica Torre is perhaps one of the most charming buildings I have ever set foot in. We not only stayed at this hotel but we had our wedding on their rooftop terrace. Both the stay and the wedding far exceeded any expectations we had (and our expectations were high to begin with). The Antica is ideally located close to all of Florence’s major attractions, in an area where we always felt safe to be no matter the time of day. Their rooftop terraces have the most incredible views of both the city of Florence and the river/bridges (the most amazing place for a wedding). All the staff were incredible and all so friendly. The breakfast was impeccable, the perfect selection of different foods so everyone can find something to eat without feeling overwhelmed. I also love the postcards they make available to guests, I have a set framed on my walls to remember my time there. Myself and my husband look forward to many more visits to the Antica, it will always be a go to for us in Florence.

    A thoughtfully executed mix of elegance amidst medieval history in a great location.

    This is a spectacular place. A hotel in a medieval tower with large comfortable rooms which are are pristine, elegant and absolutely gorgeous with beautiful wall finishes and exquisite lamps. There are exposed original beams in the ceiling and beautifully polished wood floors. The bathroom is gorgeous and very spacious, with lovely wallpaper and products and a wonderful shower. The view out the casement window overlooks the Arno -across the river is a lovely vista of rooftops and the dome of a Basilica. This is a place steeped in history, (the family is linked to the building for centuries and the story is beautifully told in the welcome packet). The building is discreetly tucked away from the main thoroughfare, just off the Ponte Santa Trinita. It’s a lovely quick walk to the square in front of the Duomo, and the Uffizzi and Accademia are minutes away from the Duomo. Doing that early morning walk after a 7 am macchiato and pastry at the Caffe Scudieri was a very special experience as the city woke up. Breakfast at the hotel- also wonderful-is on the 7th floor in a beautiful open plan room with panoramic views of Florence. There is also a bar on the rooftop. (After a distressing mishap with another booking, this unexpected booking was a gift in a myriad of ways- and also was the room which comes with an adjacent room housing a mini spa with private hamman and jacuzzi which was delightful after a day of multiple travel obstacles.) The two ladies at the front desk are lovely, and truly kind and always responsive. As were are all the other hotel staff.

    2 things : a coffee machine in the room (but actually you can go to the bar ) The shower room may be equipped with 2 lavabos to be more spacious . But it is really okay as it is .

    It is a pearl ! I recommend this atypical hotel. It is very well located in an ancient tower fully refurbished with taste and comfort. It is full of charm. Splendid view. Of course there is nothing fancy but details are well thought. There is a PIANO in the living room and one can practice freely ! I should have brought with me my partition. Good service. Excellent breakfast. I stayed many places in Florence before - I must say this one suits me the best.

    The room wa a little dark. When we have stayed previously the room was lighter although we had a better view of the river this time!!

    Location is excellent - right in the centre of Florence with a short walk to most of the museums. The hote has a lovley rooftop terrace where you can enjoy an evening glass of wine with amazing views. The room was large and well appointed with an excellent bathroom and shower. The bed was very comfortable.

    Cleanliness could have been better. I found a bloody string/floss on my bathroom floor and a piece of bloody hair or scab on the shower wall.

    It is hard to describe what I liked - the charming way they displayed breakfast, the friendliness and willingness of the staff to accommodate our needs and wants. I would stay here a million times over and plan on returning soon. I could have stayed in their hotel, not visited any site in Florence and still felt like I’d had a good trip to Florence.

    There is no way round the problem but you do have to use very small lifts to go anywhere in the hotel.

    A bit pricey, but the added touches and thoughtful service was worth it.

    We had a room with a private terrace with sweeping views to the north and west. I can't recommend booking this room enough for a romantic getaway. The room was large and was lightly and pleasantly perfumed. Breakfast was the best we've had traveling in Italy (several locations). Desk was able to reserve an early morning taxi for us that arrived on time. The also have an extensive honesty bar with spectacular views. Clean, safe, and walkable to nearly everything in Florence. Hoping to stay here again.
