Central location, walking distance to most places I was interested in and lots of options to choose from for eating good food.

Nothing that I would note as not liking

Hotel was very well located in the old center and are a good value. Rooms are compact but clean, comfortable and well maintained. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I would definitely stay again.

The hotel cannot be faulted.

Everything was delightful. The bedroom was charming, with a very pleasant view from the window. The room was beautifully clean, the bed sheets were a nice cotton and there was lots of hot water from the shower. My room was cleaned promptly every day. The breakfast room is an absolute bonus, a nice place to make a drink or eat a snack before the next museum. The staff are incredibly helpful with maps and knowledge of where to go and when.

A bath would have been good to relax and soak our weary legs but as this is an old building it is understandable and the shower was good

Location perfect for bars , restaurants , shops but mainly the beautiful attractions/cultural sites of Florence. Nothing was too far away. Very pretty room and lovely clean bathroom . Friendly and helpful host too

Not suitable for someone with a mobility disability, as there are quite a few steep steps before you get to the lift (this is quite common in Italy).

This guest house is located very centrally in Florence & the location can’t be beaten for walkability to all the main sites. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby and there is a really well equiped breakfast room you can eat meals in (not just breakfast). The room was a good size for Florence and the bed was comfy, and the bathroom was great. The biggest selling point for this guesthouse however are the staff, who are incredibly welcoming and helpful. They greeted us like old friends and made our stay very special. Thank you!

Sad to say, there was nothing we didn't like...

The guest house is located in the central part of Florence, so all the main sites are within easy walking distance. The hosts, Ana, Francesca, and Margherita, were very helpful and welcomed us heartily. The room and bathroom were spacious and very comfortable. The facilities in the common room - coffee machine, toaster, microwave oven, kettle, dishes etc. - were very useful. We prepared our own breakfast every morning and had coffee and tea several times every day. We highly recommend Relais Cavalcanti for a visit, or for an extended stay, in the beautiful city of Florence.

It is best to avoid the rooms above the Irish pub. It can get very loud until 2-3 am on football nights. The rooms could also be a bit cleaner.

Convenient location, close to everything. Great communication with Anna and Francesca before and during the stay. The place is overall charming. Lovely room where guests can enjoy a self-prepared breakfast or light meal (with coffee machines, kettles and toaaters) - but one must do the dishes afterwards. Loved the small fridge in the room.

It was a little loud in the morning with different garbage and delivery services but beyond that very quiet. Really don't have anything else negative to say.

Loved the location of the Guest house. It was perfect for walking everywhere to museums, tours, and restaurants. The staff were very helpful calling us taxis to get to the train station, explaining the layout of Florence, and even making us reservations at some of the local restaurants all of the nights we were in Florence. There was a room that had a variety of expresso, coffee, and decaf options; as well as different cooking accessories needed if you wanted to make a quick breakfast in the morning. Would highly recommend and would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Nothing. It was perfect.

Perfect location, need main attractions or an easy walk. Nice neighborhood with restaurants and bakery near by. Outstanding hosts, very helpful with advice, maps, reservations. Use of kitchen and small dining area so we could buy breakfast nearby come back and have it here. Five stars, highly recommend.

Rooms are definitely a bit dated but clean and comfortable

Friendly staff, perfect location and comfortable stay! Loved the tea and coffee facilities, not inside the room but a great selection in the shared space that made it feel more like home! Best place I’ve stayed so far in Italy.

Its location is what drew us to this property. It couldn’t have been more perfect. Clean and everyone that worked there was very friendly. 15 minutes from the train station

Location! Bed is great. Temperature is great.

Stayed in March 2024

Located right above an Irish pub where it’s loud and in the morning there are lots of carts being moved by vendors in front of the property

Staff are really great and helpful . Rooms are clean and great location.

Was perfect! Staff were very friendly, accommodating and easy to communicate with! They also gave some good recommendations of things to try/ places to eat. Good location and within walking distance of everything we wanted to do - central to most major attractions. The guest house also has a very nice aesthetic and all amenities were in perfect order.

The heat was on for the first night which was uncomfortable for us, but Anna promptly resolved and it was not an issue for the rest of our stay.

Charming place and we loved the location. Very near to major points of attraction and felt safe walking back at night. Nice cafe for coffee and breakfast right across the street. We walked everywhere. Hotel and room were well set up with quaint furniture and nice view from the window. Anna was super friendly and warm and made us feel quite at home.

What a fab place! Just next to ponte vecchio and the mercato nuovo but very calm. Fab to have the kitchen dining room available for teas and coffees throughout the day and we were able to use the little fridge in our room for milk etc too. Everyone was very friendly and the map with recommended restaurants and supermarkets was well appreciated. Grazie mille!

I thought that the check - out time of 10am was a little early.Most places I stay in are either 11 am or 12 noon.

No breakfast available but plenty of places nearby.The location was excellent , right in the heart of Renaissance Florence. Staff were polite and helpful

Our bathroom shower was clogged but they changed our rooms with no problem.

Great location, staff and accommodations.
