Such a great stay in a great location! Right on the outskirts of all the major attractions, the hotel was so beautiful and had all the right modern touches while keeping an old Florentine charm.

Hotel Bernini Palace is truly a hidden gem in the heart of Florence’s historic city centre. The staff feel like family — anticipating your needs even before you ask. Breakfast was excellent, room service was great, and every visit has been memorable. The secret to their hospitality is simple: everyone, from the door assistant to the concierge, breakfast team, and cleaning staff, greets you with a genuine smile and real care. I’ve stayed here every time I’ve visited Florence, and I wouldn’t choose anywhere else. Truly outstanding hospitality, time and time again.”
