“The dedication to personalized service struck me as a real differentiator; it's clear the staff aims to create a 'home away from home' for guests. From the curated local experiences to the rooftop terrace overlooking Santa Maria Novella, the hotel offers a unique perspective on Florence. I think this boutique property appeals to those seeking a more intimate and tailored experience than larger hotels typically provide.”
