Property was modern and sleek but as soon as we arrived there was an unpleasant smell pervading - possibly due to building/road works happening right outside. These works meant that navigating the immediate area was a bit of a nuisance and the overall location wasn’t the best. There were some nice places to eat nearby but we felt a bit out of the way and had a good 20 minute walk to get to the centre of town each day, there and back. Location will be better once the tram lines have been installed and the transport is easier. The room was nice - clean, modern and minimalist. We had a balcony, which was nice and unexpected. The hotel’s philosophy of ‘lean luxury’ is admirable but felt a bit like ‘do it yourself and don’t bother us’. This put us off staying there again.

Just seems like the hotel is trying to cheap out on quite a few things, like getting you to feel guilty about them cleaning your room and opting out for 1 free drink. Also the LAST THING you want after a long day of travelling is having to check in yourself it just seems a bit lazy and not what you’d expect from any hotel let alone a 4 star hotel. Also rooms are just a bit bare. I know it’s a semi budget Hotel but I would at least expect somewhere a bit better to hang clothes and maybe a fridge. Also it seems like the shower was an afterthought in this room after everything had been done. It was clean but definitely not what you would expect from a 4 star hotel. Location is average everything is walkable distance however I’d say be as close to the river as you can.

Poor rooms!! Do not stay
Paid over £250 per night to stay here. The rooms unfortunately let the hotel down. No warmth or romance to the room. When in Florence you’d like a bit comfort for that price but it felt like stopping in student accommodation, not in a nice hotel. Poor.
