Hotel Renaissance

Staff and location cannot be beat!!

Maybe need better directions to find hotel otherwise they could not have been better!! Helped us get tickets to sites ! Great hosts and staff!

Great location. Very unique hotel, just a front door with stairs up to the rooms. Enjoyed the friendly staff.

Not really a breakfast available till after 8am.

The hotel is an antique building. It´s beautiful and the room is very confortable.

They have a simple breakfast. And the elevator doesn´t reach the ground floor.

Great location and nice comfortable clean room. The reception helped us with the luggage up the steps to the first floor elevator. The breakfast was ok. Not much selection. Overall would stay there again.

The elevator is on the 1 st floor, which for Americans is the second floor.

Good location. Very helpful staff.

The breakfast was not at all good. Very little food and not very good. Poor value for the money.

Location was awesome. Right in the centre of the city - can walk to everything . Room was beautiful - with a great Italian vibe. Room 104 had a great view of the streets. Offered flat and bubbly water. Loved that there was a fridge in the room along with a safe. Staff were very nice and knowledgeable.

Bed was very hard. Better sound proofing needed as you can hear everything outside. Room 104 was awesome but you won’t get a good night sleep due to all the noise. The mirror and the tray which held the cup and kettle on the little desk need deep cleaning.

Beautiful old setting that makes you feel like you are stepping back into the Renaissance period. While having a clean, comfortable feel to it. Great location right in the center of everything. Staff were all friendly and accommodating.

Fabulous owner run. Oasis in middle of best area

Wonderful small and discreet hotel in an amazing location, with high class decor in the rooms and throughout the premises. Helpful and friendly reception staff.

No breakfast option

Due to a delayed flight, we arrived outside of the requested check-in period (3-8pm), but we kept in touch with the staff via Booking.com, and they were very gracious and stayed until we arrived (almost 9:45pm). The hotel is on the second floor of a gorgeous old building right in the heart of Florence, and is a close walk to everything. Our room was very quiet and clean (with a beautiful fresco on the ceiling), and the air-conditioner worked well enough that we didn't suffer during the heat wave. The staff was also happy to order us a regular taxi to get to the airport (which arrived in 5 minutes). We asked them how much we should expect to pay, and the taxi bill was within a few euros of their estimated amount (€34, which was much better value than a private driver!)A tip for those who are coming from the airport; when we arrived, there wasn't a single taxi at the airport, and it was impossible to call one via Uber (it would not connect us to a driver). There was also a lineup of about 100 people waiting for a taxi. It would have taken us all night! Either pre-arrange for a taxi to pick you up, OR, you can also take the tram. Just follow the instructions provided by the hotel on this site. It was very easy, and I think it cost us €3.50 for two people.

The room (and bathroom) was a bit small, but that is to be expected in Florence.

The location was perfect, step outside and everything is there. The team are amazing and so helpful. Even though you were right there the room was nice and quiet.

The room was spacious and beautiful, from the faux fireplace to the painted ceiling.

The room was too warm; wished it could have been cooler.

Great location, stylish place, clean and comfy rooms. Friendly welcome and good staff.

To be aware that lift access to the property is limited and you will need to manage some stairs.

Great location. Wonderful night manager who was warm and welcoming. The other staff were also kind. The roomwas simple but comfortable. We were there for a night after a long flight and plans to move on early so no plans to hang out at the hotel which was just as well since there were no notable facilities beyond the room.

Didn’t like is a strong word but travellers should be aware that the building is a beautiful old mansion in a narrow street and has a tiny elevator up a flight of steps so anyone with disabilities or heavy luggage will find it a struggle. It’s not a bargain but then again nothing in Florence is in late June.

Nice hotel and very friendly staff. Located right in the city center so we were able to enjoy night walks around Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore when it's not crowded. If you open windows it will get noisy but with air conditioner it was very pleasant.

The location and its closeness to key squares and restaurants with eating places virtually across the laneway from the front door.

The servicing was ok, we had to mop up water from the shower each morning and afternoon, the only soap provided was for hand washing, nothing for shower. It was a good 10 steps to take luggage up to the lift to access the room. There seemed to be dining tables outside the rooms but no breakfast or other meals were on offer. There seemed to be a bar and coffee machine near the reception but not for guest use it would seem.

Fantastic location. Very helpful and friendly Concierge. Spectacular room with lots of space and storage. Bathroom was largest and most elegant of the many stays we had in Italy over three weeks. Shower had body sprays and was very large by European standards. Great sleeping in a very quiet and dark room with excellent A/C. Charm of an historic house converted to a boutique hotel.

There is no lobby at the street level and a flight of stairs to climb before getting the lift to the reception. We knew about this before making our reservation, so it was not a big negative for us. We travel lightly and take the stairs when possible anyway, but this might be a physical and logistical challenge if you have heavy bags and don't do well with stairs.

Wonderful Stay at the Renaissance Hotel in FlorenceWe had a fantastic stay at the Renaissance Hotel, perfectly located in the heart of Florence. Everything was within easy walking distance, making it easy to explore the city.Our room was spacious, very clean, and featured a large, comfortable bed. The bathroom was excellent — plenty of hot water and great water pressure.What truly made our stay special was the hospitality. The owners and staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They helped us find some amazing local restaurants and made us feel right at home.Highly recommended for anyone

Getting to the hotel driving your own vehicle is very interesting. I would suggest using a taxi. The owners did have a garage that could come pick up our car at a very reasonable rate.

Clean and in a good location.

Noisy side alley where our window was positioned late into the evening.
