Guest Reviews

• Paul (10/5): - Perfect place, super friendly owners, really helpful.
• LORENA (10/5): - This was a surprisingly good place to stay. From start to finish I felt comfortable. Gulia was awesome and she recommended all the must see places when in Florence. I can’t recommend this place enough. Oh and the breakfast was yummy and beautiful, literally everything we wanted they had it. Definitely we will stay again when we come back to Florence.
• David (10/5): - Absolutely gorgeous b&b in a great location only a short walk from the main tourist areas.The hosts were extremely helpful and our room was spotlessly clean. Would highly recommend.
• Andreana (10/5): - Big rooms with lovey, super helpful staff. Highly recommend
• Lesley (10/5): Great base for exploring Florence - Loved our 4 night stay here. We thought the location was great - not too touristy so felt more like a local. Lots of interesting bars and restaurants around Santo Spirito and less than 10mins from Pitti Palace and Ponte Vecchio. The two ladies who run it were very friendly and helpful. Spacious room, comfortable bed, decent shower and really appreciated the great coffee available at all hours. Would definitely stay again.
• Marjorie (10/5): - Fabulous place. We stayed with our college age grandkids and we all loved it. I loved that it has both a bathtub and a sink. Will stay here again!
• Aude (10/5): - Point positif:l’accueil des propriétaires, la propreté, le calme, de bons restaurants à proximité, le quartier de Santo Spirito est très agréable et les principaux sites à visiter ne sont pas très loin. Il est également à signaler que les propriétaires de cet établissement parlent français. Nous recommandons cet établissement sans hésiter.
• Seif (10/5): - Very friendly staff. Showed us a lot of great places to visit. They offered us free coffee and breakfast which was very nice of them. By far the best service we’ve had. Rooms were clean. Great location just a few minutes walk from the main square.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Völlig zufriedenstellend - Sehr sauber, gutes Bett, nicht mehr ganz neu, aber wir waren positiv überrascht. Nette Inhaber, wir waren nur hier zum Schlafen. Teils sehr hellhörig, vor allem zur Strasse hin, aber das wird man überall in Florenz haben, wenn man nicht viel zahlen möchte. Liegt gut, man kann überall hin. Das Parkthema ist etwas schwierig, es gibt in der Nähe 200-500 m Parkgaragen, die man für rund 30 CHF pro Nacht nutzen kann.
• Radek (10/5): Perfect - Velmi krásný a útulný pokoj pro dvě osoby s klimatizací. Majitel B&B byl velice ohleduplný a staral se o nás jako o vlastní rodinu. Ohledně příjezdu jsme byli v kontaktu přes mobil i e-mail. Žádný zádrhel v komunikaci nebyl. Po příjezdu jsme dostali info o městě, mapu a užitečné rady. Pokoje čisté, tiché, s klimatizací. Čísla pokojů zde nejsou, místo toho se pokoje jmenují podle florentských osobností. Navíc dostanete sladký dárek na uvítanou. Pokoje jsou vybaveny skříní, postelí, lampou, lednicí, Tv, dokonce i trezorem. Koupelna čistá, funkční se sprchovým koutem. Signál wifi je silný. Na chodbě je Pc pro potřebu informací apod. Vydatná snídaně je v ceně, ráno je ve sdílené jídelně k dispozici káva, čaj, mléko, pečivo atd. Do centra k mostu Ponte Vecchio 5 min pěšky. Hotel je situován v poklidné čtvrti Oltrarno s pestrým výběrem restaurací se slušnými cenami poblíž baziliky Santo Spirito. Hned za rohem při východu z hotelu se nachází vstup do městského parku Boboli. Celkově velmi příjemný personál i místo. Ideální pro páry či jednotlivce. Při odjezdu se musí zaplatit městská daň 3 eura den/osoba, není problém si po domluvě nechat kufry na ubytování poslední den, když chcete jít ven na poslední procházku či oběd. Celkově paráda.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Staff are very friendly. We received delicious pastry and a bottle of water in our room upon arrival and each day of our stay. The breakfast was delicious and the location was central.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Home in Florence was an excellent choice!! Walking distance to all main atracciones , public transportation , restaurants in a safe Spirito Santo area . Daily Breakfast and most of all Eduardo the Manager available daily with His unconditional help . My friend Darlene And I very , very happy with our Choice Thank You Eduardo. Home in Florence highly recommended D & A
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Die Lage war top. Wir konnten die Innenstadt zu Fuß erkunden. Die Unterkunft sowie das Zimmer waren sauber, das Bad winzig. Da neben uns ein Theater lag und wir am Wochenende dort waren, war es etwas laut. Eduardo ist ein hilfsbereiter und zuvorkommender Inhaber. Er gab uns gute Tips. Das Frühstück war gut. Die Parkgarage mit 28,00 Euro pro Tag nicht günstig, aber anderes geht es dort leider nicht.
• Pia (8/5): Sentralt og greit. - Lite hotell, B&B, like ved Ponte Vecchio, i gangavstand til alle byens severdigheter. Ganske lite og mørkt rom, men rent og pent. Like i nærheten var det mange gode redtauranter. Veldig hyggelig og hjelpsom betjening.
• Martyn (10/5): - Very comfortable hotel with a very good breakfast. Everyone was very friendly and helpful.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - The place was nicely located within easy reach of Ponte vecchio. Everyone was nice and the accommodation was comfortable and clean.
• Alessandra (6/5): Mediano - Custo benefício bom. Porém hotel esquesito não gostei.
• kreami (8/5): Bella sorpresa - Premetto che sono stata in bassa stagione e ho avuto la stanza migliore del BB. Ampia pulita, con tutti i confort tv e Wi-Fi, soffitto piacevolmente decorato ed un bel bagno grande. Personale cortese e colazione abbondante. Non potevo desiderare di meglio!
• PASCAL (8/5): - Séjour plein de charme même sous la pluie.petits restaurants en dehors du quartier touristique peu cher et très bon.
• Gildo (8/5): Nice - Bom acolhimento e recepcao. Atencao as escadas para as malas. E estacionamento para o carro que nao eh muito proximo.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - gradevole, posizione centrale, per stazione 25 minuti circa
• Verified traveler (6/5): - bedroom floor and bathroom could have been cleaner.
• Verified traveler (10/5): Great place to stay - great value for money and lovely staff, allowed to leave my luggage there until it was time ot leave, will atay again
• Craig (10/5): Excellent Service! - Went the extra mile when we forgot our passports in the safe on checkout. Our documents arrived in Ravenna the next day!
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Good location. Clean.
• joachim (10/5): Zentral und trotzdem abseits der Touristenströme - Das wichtigste für uns waren die komfortablen Betten, die gut funktionierende Klimaanlage, die Ruhe und der nette und hilfsbereite Service. Die Lage war für uns auch optimal, zentral aber trotzdem ruhig gelegen. Keine Parkplätze direkt am Haus. Die nächste kostenpflichtige Garage ist ca. 400 m entfernt. Zum Be- und Entladen konnten wir am Haus parken.Richtung Zentrum gibt es einige gute Gaststätten (Cafés., Bars, Restaurants)
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very friendly staff, great location with a short walk to all the main attractions in Florence
• Simonetta (10/5): Comodo e confortevole - Abbiamo soggiornato un fine settimana. Camera pulita, zona vicina al centro ma molto tranquilla con ristoranti nei dintorni. Ottima colazione e gentilezza del personale. Possibilità di lasciare il bagaglio.
• Fabian (8/5): Kleines Hotel mit Ambiente - Beim Einchecken in das sehr überschaubare Hotel wurden wir von dem symphatischen "Rezeptionisten" mit allem wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten über Florenz vertraut gemacht und bekamen auf Wunsch sogar zahlreiche Speise- und Restaurantempfehlungen. Das Zimmer war stilvoll mit rustikalen Möbeln eingerichtet, sauber und lag an einer sehr wenig befahrenen Nebenstraße. Man schaut direkt auf die gegenüberliegende Häuserwand; wenn man den ganzen Tag unterwegs ist, stört das jedoch nicht. Das Bad war klein, aber für Zimmer in gleicher Preislage durchschnittlich, und ebenfalls im sehr guten Zustand. Das Frühstück besteht aus einem kleinen, kalten Buffet, von dem man gestärkt in den Tag gehen kann. Für einige Tage Aufenthalt ist es ausreichend.
• M. (4/5): Vicino al centro - Nonostante avessimo prenotato per 2 adulti e 1 bambino, ci hanno assegnato una camera con solo il letto matrimoniale, come anche gli asciugamani ( che vengono cambiati ogni 3 gg) erano per due persone...li abbiamo dovuti chiedere, stessa cosa per la carta igienica, abbiamo dovuto chiedere che venisse messa...ecco, comodo perché vicino al centro, ma si perdono in piccolezze.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Very helpful straff, good breakfast (by south european standards ;). Wi-fi could be more stable.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Für Städtetrip absolut zu empfehlen - Sauberes Hotel mit sehr freundlichem Personal. Sehr gute Lage für die Erkundung von Florenz. Zimmer sind ringhörig.
• Stephan (8/5): Centraal gelegen B&B - Dit B&B voor 2 dagen geboekt voor onze doorreis in Toscane. Het is een eenvoudig B&B nabij het centrum van Florence. Alle bezienswaardigheden zijn op loop afstand (30 min). Omdat parkeren bijna onmogelijk is maakt de B&B gebruik van een parkeer service die de auto ophaalt en terug brengt (€25 p.d.) De kamer is schoon, eenvoudig en ligt in een rustige veilige buurt.
• Cezary (10/5): it does feel like home! - This B&B is a real marvel! The staff are extremely helpful and nice. The room was more spacious than we expected and had beautiful frescoes on the ceiling. The air conditioning worked just fine. The bathroom was clean and had both a shower and a tub, which was a nice surprise. The bed was very comfortable and big. There was also a very comfy sitting area with two armchairs and a small table. The only one tiny little thing I could complain about is that the temperature of the fridge seemed to be a bit too high and you needed to wait quite some time for your Proseco to cool. Other than that our stay was perfect. This place really feels like home! Thank you so much!!
• Christopher (4/5): - They never cleaned our room, only made the bed. WiFi was not that good. Bathroom was super small, never gave us a bar of soap.! About a 30 min walk from everything. Would not stay here again
• Verified traveler (8/5): A Moment in Florence - Overall it is a well run B&B. The staff were extremely helpful and they showed they cared about what they did through how well everything was maintained. I do think it is a little out of the way to most of Florence but if you don't mind walking quite a bit, then its fine. The B&B itself is quiet but the neighborhood can get a bit loud depending on the night as people return Piazza Santo Spirito.
• Maria (10/5): Budget and good value - Only stayed 3 nights but were looked after well with the staff. Always ready to help. Could get a coffee anytime in the dining room which was lovely after a long day walking everywhere.
• Hong (8/5): - 酒店看着很一般，住着还是挺舒适的，只是房间不向阳，有点遗憾。步行到景点要20分钟
• Jade (10/5): Home away from home - We had a wonderful stay at Home in Florence. The rooms are very spacious and have everything you need. The b&b is perfectly located only 10mins from the centre by foot. We ate mostly in the restaurants around the corner as they were quite local and authentic. The food was excellent. Would highly recommend this B&B and would certainly stay again
• prajakta (8/5): Comfortable stay - Good place to stay. Matteo and Andrea are very helpful people. They are really nice. Everything is at a walking distance, but a 10 to 15 min walk to reach the centre . But that way you get to see the city. There is a good Chinese food joint at walking distance and nice restaurants at the nearest square .
• Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely, welcoming B&B a short walk from the sights - We were made very welcome here and wished we could have stayed longer than just two days. The room was simple but comfortable, and the wifi was good - not bad considering the apartment dates back to the 17th century! Matteo is an excellent host who gave us lots of local info. The B&B is about a 15 minute walk from the centre and an easy bus ride from the station. Definitely recommended and good value for a B&B.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Old world charm in the heart of the city - Comfortable walking distance to all the important sites. 2nd floor flat in old charming building with 7 rooms; welcoming atmosphere; high ceilings; spacious room. A bit dark and could use a fresh coat of paint but clean and comfortable enough. Very kind and friendly staff.
• lizzy (8/5): Good value accommodation in easy walking distance. - Home in Florence is the ideal Bed & Breakfast if you are on a budget and want accommodation with a bit more local character. It is basically an apartment in a block that has been converted into a B&B.It is within easy walking distance of all the main tourist spots but in a back street in a quieter part of town. The staff are friendly and helpful. The room is simple and charming [the bed was very comfortable and I'm fussy] the breakfast is basic continental fare but snacks & beverages are available 24/7. We found the nearby Piazza Santa Spirito perfect for eating out in the evenings - great atmosphere and great food.All in all would recommend this to anyone with simple tastes, except maybe the less able bodied [stairs and 10 minute walk into city centre]
• Enrique (10/5): Made my stay pleasurable - This b&b is in a private residence about a 3 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio and right near the Pitti Palace. The room we stayed in was large and was perfect for myself and my daughter. The inn has a kitchen which is available 24 hours a day. The croissants are great and the cappuccino was very good. A great place for a reasonable price. Highly recommend.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Great location, good hotel - Home in Florence is in a fantastic location, a little bit away from all the busy crowds which was lovely, but easy 5-10 minute walk to all the attractions. The room was huge, bathroom a little small but overall very nice. Service was nice and helpful, whenever staff saw us they would always say hello and ask how we were going. Only issue was we wanted to do a half day winery tour and the staff was not very helpful. He would only book it if we went with the one company he knew, but that company did not offer any half day tours. We found a tour online and asked if he would call and book it, which he wouldn't as he said he did not know the company. We had to use our global roaming to call the company and book it ourselves, which turned out fine, but a little disappointing that he wouldn't book it for us.
• Ester Jones (10/5): - The room was very clean elegant. The host was very helpful in keeping our luggage after we checked out so we could stay in Florence longer. The location was good because it was out of the crowds and the touristy stuff. There were convenient groceries and places to get expresso as I did not have breakfast in the hotel.It was great to be staying where there were local people living their normal lives.
• Pat (8/5): B&B with a personal touch - Central and convenient . Older style B&B but comfortable. Staff very friendly and breakfast was fine. I've never seen such a selection of teas! To receive a bottle of wine upon leaving was quite beyond our expectations!
• Paul and Christine (8/5): Good B&B - Really interesting B&B, 10 mins walk from the major bridges in quite area. Good overall stay and the staff were all fantastic, really helpful and knowledgeable. The B&B had everything you needed and continental breakfast was plentiful, really nice touch was open access to the breakfast room at anytime for coffee, tea biscuits and even “Cantucci e Vin/ il Santo for guests to enjoy. !.
• Kevin (10/5): excellent service! - the owner is very helpful. gave us a 10 mins briefing about Rome, recommanded several great restaurant to us when we checked in. He also helped us to make a reservation to the Uffizi Gallery. Room is great. very clean. Plenty of space in the room and toilet.
• Hildehoy (8/5): - Our stay at Home in Florence was nice. It was a bit noisy at night and not exactly as cozy looking as it looks in the photos, but it was still quite nice, clean and comfortable. (I would not pay for the breakfast... it's all prepackaged food.)
• John W (10/5): Great location. Artisans abound - This hotel was ideally located for the artisan area as well as being only a 10 minute walk from the Ponte Vecchio. Really friendly staff and comfortable room. Good breakfast room with plenty of choice of foods which were available all day.Good to meet other guests in such an informal location.Room and hotel very clean. Would recommend to anyone.
