B&B Dante e Beatrice

This is a great place one side of the floor is dedicated to Beatrice the other side to Dante I stayed in the Brunetto Latini room. A nice big room, desk, wardrobe, and electric pot. Breakfast was plentiful basics were the same but something new each day a + if your staying more than a couple of days. Mina was fantastic she might seem gruff but its her frustration with English. She worked hard morning to night to keep things clean. Elevator is slow, but better than walking up two flights. I've been to Florence 3 times. This was the best yet this is where i will stay on my return. Thank you Mina for all your hard work. I walked every where from this location. Number 1 bus from train station almost takes you to front door.

The room was very clean and comfortable. Even though we were much later arriving than expected (3.5 hours getting through FCO) the lady who checked us in was very kind and forgiving. We just made sure to call at let her know we were going to be later. Location is great, only a few blocks away from David and walking distance to everything you need to see in Athens historic centre of Florence!! Breakfast was good with lots of variety and American coffee if you don’t want espresso.

Our room the Latini is pretty quiet. The breakfast is adequate, with cereals, yogert, tea, coffee, milk, juice, ham, cheese, bread, some veggies like cherry tomatoes or cucumbers, some fruits, and eggs for some days. The queen bed is quite comfortable and is not saggy in the middle. The breakfast room can be full at prime time but we did not experience any problems as most guests finish breakfast pretty quickly. It is a renovated building not far from the historic city center. We find it a good value for what we are looking for.

This b&b is a renovated older house, not your modern boutique guesthouse but our room is reasonably maintained and a little more spacious than average. It is located about 15 minutes walk to the duomo and about 5 minutes walk to the Academia. The bus stop to and from the train station is not far. The bed is very comfortable. The elevator worked when we checked in and checked out with our luggage, but a few times when we went back at night we could not get it to work. Walking up two flights of stairs is no big problem though without luggage. The two lady hostesses were pretty helpful. The room had one chair when we checked in and we asked for a second chair which we got immediately. We are satisfied with our stay at Dante & Beatrice.

The hotel was great for this price point. Everything was very clean. The breakfast was not gourmet but nice enough to get the day started. The staff were very helpful. The only problem we had was with trying to contact staff late at night for a plumbing issue. But everything was taken care of by the staff when we were able to get in touch with them.
