The Hoxton, Florence

8/10 Good

"Hi, the hotel is beautiful and at a good location. The staff was attentive when we checked in. We had two issues, first we didn’t get our room clean when we requested. While our stayed only one time the room was cleaned because we kept calling to get it clean and get clean towels. Also, the room temperature was very hot. The hotel room is expensive, we were not expecting this to happen."

25hours Hotel Florence Piazza San Paolino

10/10 Excellent

"At every turn this property is sure to welcome you with a smile. From the front desk, to the restaurant staff, and everyone in between makes this property high on the list. Every detail has been considered to make your stay fun and inviting. The designers waved a magic wand making the rooms including the bathroom appear twice as spacious with a fun twist of humor - you may just want to hang out with a bottle of wine on your balcony. The property has several great spaces to explore and enjoy. The breakfast has the perfect balance of offerings with a staff that makes you excited to start your day."

Plaza Hotel Lucchesi

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. Everything was exceptionally clean, and the entire staff was warm, friendly, and always willing to help. The housekeeping team deserves special recognition for doing an outstanding job—they kept the room spotless every day and made our stay even more comfortable. The location was perfect, with easy access to everything we wanted to see and do. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommended!"
