This place was INCREDIBLE! My husband and I stayed here for 5 nights while celebrating my 40th birthday, but hte hotel had families with children (young and teens), and would be a great option for anyone. The hotel itself was on several levels, and felt more like an apartment complex with winding hallways, 'secret' entrances, and relaxing areas to retreat. Because the rooms were spread out, we didn't hear anyone else while we were in our rooms, which were fully renovated, with a great walk-in shower. The location is one bridge away from Ponte Vecchio, and very walkable to anywhere you would want to go (Uffizi, Pitti Palace, Duomo, Mercato Centrale, and train station). Every staff member was so pleasant and willing to help you with any needs. The AC in our room didn't seem to be fully functioning (totally understandable in the July heatwave - but the reception was able to get us a fan, which helped tremendously). My husband and I would go to the rooftop each afternoon after sightseeing and also before dinner to relax and have a glass of wine before going out to dinner; it truly was one of the most beautiful sights. Mia, one of the bar staff, was so nice and helpful with dining suggestions.
The breakfast is in another part of the hotel, with access to a lovely terrace to watch the scullers on the Arno each morning. Expansive menu with continental breakfast and various fruit drinks and coffee.
I can't say enough good things about this hotel - we will definitely be back!
