The hosts are AMAZING! They are so informative, helpful and sweet. The rooms are nice, and the roof top space is incredible! We spent every night on the roof enjoying the views! We HIGHLY recommend this place for your stay in Florence.
It’s great. The hosts were always prompt to help. They communicated with us via WhatsApp since even before we arrived. It is clean and close to the main attractions (20-25 mins to the farthest one). We really recommend it… many thanks to Florencia (one of the hosts - she was very helpful to us).
An excellent, super friendly host, very responsive to any concerns and took his time to show and explain everything to us, including some excellent dining options. Room was clean and area was safe.
Very walkable area, about a 15 minute walk from the train station and 10 minutes to the Duomo.
They even had umbrellas available for us when it rained the one day! Highly recommended.
Wonderful place to stay in Florence. The staff go out of their way to make your stay as pleasant as possible. Impossible to get this kind of service and personalized attention at a full sized hotel
I stayed in Antica Dimora for a lovely February week-end with my mother and we both enjoyed the hotel itself, breakfast time and especially the help provided by our hosts.
The lady that checked me in did not show me anything other than my room. When Andrea arrived for the evening shift however, he showed me the terrace and common room as well as gave me the breakfast times, and a map! Andrea was excellent! You are lucky to have him represent your hotel.
Great location, no parking but go lucky to find a spot to unload and used valet parking 21 Euro. The room had ac but no way to control temp so room was a little warm. Close ...walking distance to alot of major attractions and market which was a huge plus. Security was very good, breakfast was excellent.
It's impossible to overstate how lovely it was to stay at Antica Dimora Johlea. The room and common room and the rooftop terrace with those views...just amazing. Highly recommended. We went to Venice, Florence, Rome, Bologna and Milan during our trip and in my opinion Florence took the cake and it was in no small part to the room and the location and the friendliness of the staff, etc. Thank you for a memorable stay!
Great hotel. 15 minutes walking distance from the centre of Florence. Great staff to and good communication between guests and the staff some days ahead of the stay.
This hotel was abolutely amazing and really made our trip to Florence.
It is in a very convenient location, both the train stations and the local attractions are within a 15 minute walking distance.
The roof terrace was absolutely brilliant. You can easily spend an evening up on the balcony with a nice glass of wine. The 'Honesty Bar' was a great touch. Fridge and selection of spirits etc. are made available to guests, you simply select what you've taken and it is added to the bill at the end of the stay.
The stay was lovely and all of the reception staff were warm and welcoming.
If I had to make any suggestions for improvement, the room was quite dusty.
It is a very small hotel. If you are expecting a Marriot you will be disappointed. If you want a clean quiet place, you will be happy. The breakfast is good. The staff made restaurant and taxi reservations for us. It is walking distance from all the tourist sites. Would I stay there again? Yes.,
Great 6 room property. Staff went out of their way to spoil me. Rooftop has good views and is a relaxing space. Rooms include a smart phone for maps and calls at no charge. I would stay again on a return visit.
The bathroom shower could be better with more lighting, stronger shower curtain (waiter leaked), i think grout could be cleaner for a
newer feel. Towels could be thicker and softer.
I really enjoyed my stay, the staff was extremely friendly, the room was clean and very comfortable, the common areas were very welcoming and relaxing, and the breakfast was great!
The room was just darling and the rooftop patio garden has a panoramic view of florence and you can hear all the church bells while u enjoy a glass of honor bar wine
Good breakfast..great staff..
The staff were so generous and accommodating - we arrived at 7pm on Xmas eve and they stayed late to meet us on arrival. (Note - you must arrange to check in after hours.) Shower had great water pressure and hot water. They gave us a free upgrade and we had a little sitting room upstairs in our room. The rooms were gorgeous - beautiful floor tiles, canopy bed. And the lounge had 24/7 snacks and coffee/hot chocolate. The view from the rooftop of the duomo and city is stunning. The area is quiet, and since Florence is relatively small, it is a quick walk to the tourist area. A great value and friendly staff!
Fabulous B&B! Charming room (air conditioned) decorated in traditional Tuscan style with Florentine textiles/colours and dark wood. Excellent en-suite bathroom. Good Continental Breakfast with a range of dishes and drinks. The Reception is staffed all day and they were very friendly and helpful. Apart from the Reception area there is a Breakfast Room and Lounge, all decorated in the Florentine style. Last but not least there is the Roof Terrace with views across Florence and the surrounding hills. We stayed for five nights and it was perfect.
Pros:
Perfect Location - quiet yet only 10.mins. walk from the Duomo
Lift from the Ground Floor up to the B&B
Bijou - only six rooms
Beautifully decorated - full of Tuscan character
Air Conditioned throughout
Roof Terrace with views across Florence and the surrounding hills
Friendly, Helpful Staff
Excellent value for money
Cons:
None!
