Gello Holidays from NZ$664

Close to centre of Florence, room ok, clean

Very clean, aircon definitely welcome in summer temperatures, breakfast buffet very good. All within walkable distance of the Palazzo Vecchio and other attractions.

I was really looking forward to staying at this hotel and even paid extra for a Duomo view, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. The room was very small, outdated, and had an unpleasant odor every time I walked in. The view was underwhelming, and overall, the experience didn’t feel like good value for the price. On a positive note, the location is excellent — everything is within walking distance, which was convenient. The staff were also friendly and professional throughout my stay. However, safety was a concern. I had early morning tours, and when I left around 6 AM, there was a person sleeping at the entrance of the hotel. It made me feel uneasy and detracted from the experience. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again. While the location is great, it just wasn’t worth the cost or discomfort.
