    We stayed at a hotel near the train station that made it very easy to get to the main historic sites. The location was perfect for exploring the city and enjoying the local bars. Our room was clean, comfortable, and had complimentary water every day. The breakfast was great and the staff were friendly and helpful.

    The reception area was small.

    I recently stayed at Machiavelli Palace in Ferenze and can't recommend highly enough this hotel. The location is ideal, close to everything and just a short walk to the main train station. The staff at the canteen were very friendly and the food was good. The service overall was excellent, and I would definitely recommend it to all travelers.

    Our family absolutely loved the warm welcome from the front desk staff, especially Maria, who always had a friendly smile and helpful advice for family-friendly activities in Florence. The central location was perfect for exploring the city and the spacious rooms offered a comfortable retreat for the whole family after a day of sightseeing.

    My children wanted more entertainment options in the hotel, such as a kids' play area or games room.

    The location of the hotel was fantastic, with easy access to all the main attractions in the city. It was just a short walk to the Duomo and Ponte Vecchio, and there were plenty of restaurants nearby. Additionally, the hotel was conveniently located just a few minutes' walk from the main train station, which was great for my business trip.

    The service level at the hotel was quite poor. The check-in process was unpleasant, and overall the staff were not very service-minded.

    The rooms at Hotel Machiavelli Palace felt like stepping into a piece of Florentine history. The cozy ambiance and the smart satellite TV made me feel right at home. As a disabled guest, the laptop-friendly workspace was a huge plus for me.

    The bathroom layout felt a bit cramped for my liking.

    The hotel is conveniently located near the train terminal, making it easy to travel to and from the city. It is also close to the central station, allowing quick access to various attractions. The rooms are well-decorated, with beautiful beamed ceilings and modern bathrooms. The staff is helpful and accommodating, allowing guests to store their bags after check-out and use the facilities. The breakfast offerings are good, satisfying guests with a variety of options.

    Some guests complained about the lack of comfort seating in the rooms, which may be a drawback for those seeking more relaxation during their stay.

    I stayed at Hotel Machiavelli Palace for a few days while exploring the city. The location was perfect, with the market, station, and duomo all nearby. The view from our balcony, bathroom, and roof terrace was simply breathtaking. The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet, ensuring a good night's sleep. The amenities, such as the safe and air conditioning, were also commendable. The staff, especially the two young lady receptionists, were professional and friendly. I had a fantastic experience and definitely recommend this hotel.

    I do recommend this hotel.

    This hotel was centrally located to everything in the historic center of Florence. It was within walking distance of all the major attractions, making it very convenient for sightseeing. The rooms were comfortable and well-appointed. I particularly liked the little balcony in my room, which allowed me to enjoy some fresh air and take in the city views. The staff at this hotel were very friendly and helpful. They provided excellent service and were always willing to assist with any requests or questions. The breakfast provided at this hotel was decent, with a variety of options to choose from. However, I would have liked to see more vegetarian choices available.

    All was satisfactory during my stay at this hotel.

    Our stay at this Florentine hotel was wonderful. The rooftop offered amazing views of the city, and the easy access to public transportation made it a breeze to get around. Although the WiFi was a bit slow at times, the helpful staff made up for it with their warm and welcoming hospitality. I'd recommend this hotel for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    The hotel exudes timeless elegance and traditional beauty, which made me feel so comfortable and relaxed during my stay. The decoration and general areas were just lovely, with the splendid rooftop panoramic terrace offering a breathtaking view of Florence. The hotel's accessibility for senior people was also remarkable, with the location being within easy reach of the characteristic San Lorenzo market and the main Florentine museums.

    I would have appreciated more detailed information about available tours and landmarks, especially considering the needs of senior people. It would have made the vacation even better for us seniors.

    I chose this hotel for attending a forum, and it represented an ideal starting point for conveniently visiting all the major sights of Florence and all the elegant shopping streets. It's within walking distance from the Firenze Fiera Congress & Exhibition Centre, ideal for business travelers. The breakfast was satisfying, and the room was spacious and comfortable.

    One thing that I missed for my work was a designated business center or meeting room within the hotel.

    Great location near the market, train and bus stations, and major attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the initial greeting at the desk was excellent. The room was spacious, cool, and clean, with a comfortable bed. The bathroom was clean and everything worked well. The breakfast was varied and plentiful, making for a good start to the day. Additionally, the hotel had secure luggage storage, which was convenient after check-out.

    The Wi-fi connection was poor, which made it difficult to stay connected. There were also extra charges for items in the room, such as a half bottle of wine, which was unexpected.

    Stayed in a lovely hotel, conveniently close to all the tourist spots. The terrace was perfect for celebrating events, like my exhausting walk to the Duomo. The hotel's historic charm was a delight, I almost felt like a noble!

    Oh, just a small detail, the shower door was missing a partition. But don't worry, I learned to master the art of towel absorption.

    The rooftop panoramic terrace, a delightful oasis. After a bustling day, I ascended there, feeling like a character from a Renaissance painting. The views of Florence's skyline were as captivating as Botticelli's Birth of Venus, and with a refreshing drink in hand, I savored the moment.

    Check-in process was unpleasant.
