    Location was incredibly good. Room was super spacious with a very tall ceiling. Vincenzo was very friendly, he allowed us to check in 2 hours earlier. Very clean amenities and very comfortable.

    People with big luggages should be mindful about carrying it through steep stairs. The hotel is on the third floor (second in European system).

    It’s in a very central location, close to all major attractions. Everyone on the staff were very helpful. It seemed like a very old building, but very well decorated and furnished inside. It was a very unique experience.

    Keep in mind there is no elevator and it may be difficult to take the luggage to the third floor, where some rooms are located.

    Good location, nice building, safe and quiet.

    Nothing

    One of the best hotels I've been in, feel like you're living in a museum. At first I was worried that the restroom was shared, but I saw such a beautiful and clean room for the first time. The location is 100/10, it took us 5-10 minutes to reach any sightseeing . Free coffee from the coffee machine in the morning and also a big thank to the host who met us so well. I will also add 10/10 for the wifi

    You had to walk up two flights of stairs to get to the property with no elevator, but that was the only minor issue with the place.

    This place was seriously fantastic! It had a AMAZING location under 5 minute walk from the main cathedral of Florence (cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore). It was central to everything you’d want to see in Florence as a tourist. The room itself was super clean and comfortable, and the interior decorating was cute. The sink in the room was very appreciated given there were shared bathrooms. There were two bathrooms we could access and both were very clean and comfortable to use. Free tea and coffee was provided, as was machine-made coffee from 8-11am. WiFi connection was very fast.

    The walls are quite thin so you can hear alot of chatter from neighbours but otherwise it was such a great stay! Would definitely recommend for other travellers.

    Vincenzo was very lovely and accommodating during the stay. He helped out with lots of information about the local bus system and very willing to assist with any activities and local recommendations. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the bathrooms were lovely too!

    Nothing - of course it would be nice to have the toilet in the unit, but the shower and vanity were the correct choice.

    Great property just down the a quiet street from the cathedral. The room was spacious, the bed was comfortable and the staff were wonderful.

    There is only one shared bathroom and one shower between 6 rooms on the floor. By the entrance no sign of the hotel ( as explained by the host, who is a very welcome person, that the local legislation request). If you're arriving late, make sure to have the phone charged to make a call. The main entrance gate is automatically closed and if your phone battery dies( like happened in my case) there isn't any facility to contact the reception. The hotel reception is on the 3rd floor.

    The building has a character , renaissance atmosphere, with 400 year history. Very High ceilings, large living room with antiques: cabinets, music box, tables, frescoes.

    Everything was great.

    This place is great! It is quiet and the staff are very friendly, accommodating, and professional. The location is fantastic if you want to explore the center of Florence. It was so easy to walk everywhere from the hotel. The interior is very "Florence" and it's a unique experience. Everything was clean. I also loved the espresso machine, available in the morning. It made an excellent cappuccino. The place has a very calm vibe. I plan to take some "study vacations" here in the future.

    Whilst we knew upfront that we had to share a bathroom and toilet, it's quite frustrating when the facility is occupied.On our floor, there was only one shower and toilet,between 5/6 rooms.Lots of stairs to walk up which may prove problematic for older people.

    Fabulous location near to most of the main attractions.Room was a nice size and had a very comfortable bed.Staff were very friendly and helpful.Hot drinks were available free every morning, 8-11am.

    Great location, easy walking distance to all sights and museums. Beautiful old building. Our room was at the back so no street noise. Shared bathroom was at the front and lots of street noise at night, so I would recommend asking for a back room.

    If you are staying a Friday or Saturday night due to the downtown location some noise may be heard. We brought earplugs which were perfectly effective at tuning out any outside noise.

    Vincenzo was so welcoming and informative. He made us feel right at home in Hotel Bavaria. The location is very close to Duomo, many museums, restaurants, and the city centre. The outside of the hotel is accessible by a door with a key from the street, you then need another key to enter the hotel itself, followed by a key to enter the specific room. This made us feel very safe and secure. Our room was comfortable and clean and was significantly bigger than a typical hotel room. The sink in room was perfect for washing your face and brushing your teeth. The common space was beautiful with high ceilings and nice furniture. The washroom is shared with a few other rooms but is very clean and spacious. The free coffee machine in the morning was a great perk to start off our days exploring Florence! Overall a great stay and amazing value! Thank you Vincenzo and the hotel Bavaria staff for making our stay so memorable!

    The overall experience was amazing, some suggestions for improvements could be: - There could be mosquito nets in the windows. - The curtains in the shower were not enough to prevent the floor to be wet. - The hotel (reception and rooms) is on the second/third floors of the building, but there is no elevator (so it is not accessible to people with reduced mobility).

    The location is PERFECT! Really: PERFECT! In the middle of the center, close to everything. The room had an incredible view to the duomo, and it was unexpected how quiet the room was since the hotel is in the middle of the old town. The room was huge, very comfortable and clean. Staff is friendly and helpful (we could leave our lugagge until the time of our train). I would definitely recommend and come back.

    Lots of stairs up to 2nd floor, struggled a bit with my suitcase. Shared bathroom, but it worked OK. Make sure they explain the key system on the street door so that you are not locked out at night!

    The location is very good, a little tricky to find first, but read the message from the owner. Quiet, although in the centre of Florence . Staff were nice. Lovely old building Kettle in the room with tea and coffee provided for you anytime. Lovely coffee machine free to use at breakfast time. You can walk easily to all attractions, 15min to station. I would be happy to return.
