About

Albergo Firenze

Albergo Firenze sits on Piazza Donati, a short walk from the Duomo and the main museums. It’s a straightforward three-star with a long history of hosting visitors to Florence, many of whom return year after year. The hotel has Wi-Fi throughout, a 24-hour reception, and a lift — a welcome detail in a city where many older buildings have stairs only.

The rooms are simple and clean, with heating and air conditioning. You can choose from singles up to quadruples, some with bathtubs. The breakfast is a solid spread, and the staff are regularly praised for being friendly and helpful. The location is the real draw: you can walk to most sights, and there’s a vending machine, laundry service, and luggage storage if you need them.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable location — Right on Piazza Donati, a short walk from the Duomo, the Uffizi, and the main shopping streets. Most guests say you can walk everywhere.
  • Helpful, friendly staff — Many reviews call out the reception team — especially Barbara — for being professional and going out of their way to help with maps, restaurants, and parking issues.
  • Good breakfast included — A solid spread with plenty of choice, praised as delicious and convenient. The dining category scores 8/10.
  • Lift and wheelchair access — A lift serves the floors, and there are accessible rooms and bathrooms for guests with limited mobility — not always a given in Florence's old buildings.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms are basic — The rooms are simple and a little tired — the 'fair' and 'clean enough' comments suggest you're paying for location, not luxury.
  • Street noise possible — Being in the center means traffic and pedestrian noise. Some rooms overlook the courtyard, but double-glazing isn't guaranteed — you may hear the street.
  • Parking is tricky — There's public parking nearby, but Florence's old town has a car curfew, and spaces are limited and pricey. The staff can help, but it's not a hotel garage.
  • Check-out is early — You'll need to be out by 10:00, and check-in doesn't start until 14:30. Not ideal if you have a late train or an early start.

“Great location, right in the middle of Florence.”

“The location was good, but that's not really the hotel's doing — Florence is small and every hotel is fairly central.”

“We really enjoyed our time here. The location was fantastic and everything was spotless. Barbara at reception was especially helpful and professional. I'd happily recommend this place.”

8.3Verified guest

“The staff made the stay. They were very informative and helpful. I had no idea about the car curfew in the old city, but they helped me sort out my parking issue. The location was close to the shopping area, which was great because we were exhausted from walking. There are good restaurants nearby too. The rooms were fair.”

“Location is excellent — you can walk to everything, including shops. The breakfast was good and there was a lift, which some hotels don't have.”
