Hotel Il Sole

This was a good location, next to the train station. We had a car and parking was convenient. The room was tiny but worked well for one night.

very tiny shower!

Being across from Empoli's train station, I expected a bare-bones accommodation. What a wonderful surprise to enter and realize this is a top-grade place to stay.While the room was snug, it was perfectly comfortable for a one-night stay. It has little atmosphere - obviously designed for people like us who appreciate a good night's sleep more than a "charming" room - but the windows were absolutely sound-proof.The air conditioning and wifi were completely dependable.Entry and exit were very easy, with a key or key fob, depending on time of day.And of course, there were dozens of restaurants and bars a short stroll away.

Everything was fine.

Great location, clean, nice bathroom, tv channels, heating, etc... all good

It was very quiet with no disturbance.

Disappointed that coffee was not available. Television was only Italian with no access to Netflix etc.

Very friendly staff, nice room and bathroom. Close to the train stationn

Location near station to access Florence, Pisa etc. easy walk into centre for restaurants etc. good WiFi and air con. Very helpful staff.

All good

A small hotel by the railway station.Clean comfortable and simply furnished.Friendly and helpful staff.Effective Aircon and a good night's sleep was enjoyed.

Hotel was walking distance to all the shops and restaurants in Empoli. Front desk staff were very nice, and helpful. We were pleasantly surprised to find our daughter had a separate adjoining room, instead of having to share ours. Very clean and comfortable room. Would stay here again when visiting family...

Location perfect for train travel and easy walk into town. Good basic room, very quiet at night. Excellent value, very pleasant owners and staff.

Location. Beside railway station but very quiet. Room was lovely. Very modern and clean. People running the hotel were extremely pleasant and helpful. Empoli very convenient for Pisa. Siena and Florence.

Was happy with stay

Very clean, newly renovated, helpful staff.

Only that the breakfast area was being renovated so we had to walk to get our breakfast. It wasn’t far and the cafe was very nicely appointed with good food.

Thoughtful and helpful staff including offering to delete email with my return flight boarding pass after they printed it for me at my request

A charming and very clean room. Staff very friendly and accurate

The heating with hot air is not very comfortable.

Conveniently close to the train station and a comfortable walk into town. A spacious room in traditional style.

Breakfast could be improved by better bread. Single use plastic beakers for water/ juice should be a thing of the past.

Remodeled hotel, clean room, helpful staff, good breakfast.

Our only issue was that the area around the hotel did not feel safe at night. I thought convenience to the railroad station would be a plus but the area at night was a negative because of the men hanging out in the area.

Great location

Breakfast and customer service was very ordinary. TV didn't work and staff were useless, one not even speaking English

Wonderful staff so helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The room was delightful and very clean. Was made to feel very important and looked after

The one thing lacking was outdoor space but everything else made up for that

Lovely breakfast very friendly helpful staff comfortable clean room

Would have been nice to have lounge /bar area/ garden

The service was very good to help us with getting taxis as we had to go to a wedding they went above and beyond for us in a quiet place empoli.

We had to iron downstairs as they didnt trust us with it, not a huge inconvenience though.Also I got quite a few mosquito bites so could do with mosquito net around the bed

Breakfast was perfect. Service was excellent. Gave the feel of a family run Hotel but was done very professionally.Secured parking was a short walk away but was glad to get a safe spot. Train station was directly across the street giving us access to Siena and Florence. Room was very comfortable. Really liked this place.

Parking seems to be an issue everywhere in Italy. The only way this hotel could have been better was if there were a porte cohere where you could drive up and drop off your bags and then a parking spot right there. It really wasn't an issue and because of its prime location in the square wouldn't have been feasible even when it was constructed.
