Guest Reviews
- Sara (10/5): Love this place! We would come back and stay again. - Owners, location, breakfast and comfortable beds. Terrace for breakfast or reading is lovey. Nothing.
- Tammi (10/5): Perfect stay in Firenze! - The property is in a great location. Close enough to walk to many areas in Firenze but not located in a noisy/crowded tourist filled area. The room we had was clean and comfortable and quiet. We liked that there is still an atmosphere of locals living here. We also found a delicious Gelateria less than 2 blocks away!
Beatrice and Lorenzo were great hosts! Very attentive and they provided helpful advice and information. There was a booklet in the room that had information about the historic building, as well as restaurant recommendation and the like. The breakfasts were plentiful and the breakfast area outside was lovely. Lorenzo made delicious cappuccinos with refills if requested . There is an elevator that can be used, which is helpful if you might have heavier luggage or are tired after walking more than 20,000 steps a day😊. The Wi-Fi didn’t always work, but that wasn’t really the fault of the owners. They tried their best to make it work better.
- Mirko (8/5): Für den Stadtbesuch sehr gut geeignet - War alles sehr modern - bestimmt erst vor kurzem renoviert Zimmer etwas hellhörig - hatten im Nachbarzimmer Frühaufsteher - von der Straße hörte man nichts
- Gustaf (10/5): -
- Alfredo8 (10/5): - La ubicación excelente y todo muy bien Nada
- aurelie (10/5): Séjour idyllique. Dans ces conditions on ne peut qu’adorer Firenze - Tout !
De l’emplacement au calme en passant par la gentillesse des hôtes et le confort. Les conseils de restos ;) et le petit déjeuner sur la terrasse. Rien
- Jean (10/5): Perfect B&B in a beautiful historic house, fantastically located for all the sights of Florence. - This was a perfect place to stay: the location, the facilities, a beautiful room, a lovely terrace for breakfast or a picnic dinner later, and the staff ( Bernadette and Lorenzo) were wonderful. Nothing
- Emilien (9/5): - Le personnel est adorable, ils sont vraiment aux petits soins. Le petit déjeuner est top, possibilité de le prendre en extérieur s'il fait beau en plus. Les chambres sont spacieuses et bien équipées.
L'emplacement est parfait pour tout faire à pied. Si la chambre donne côté rue, l'insonorisation n'est pas très très bonne donc on entend les passants.
- David (10/5): Isola d’Arno is a gem in the heart of Florence that’s close to the action but on a quiet street. - It’s a warm and beautiful B&B. Great location. Nice accommodations. Super friendly staff. Tasty breakfast. Close to the action in Florence but on a quiet street. I liked everything.
- Florencia (10/5): Excelente! - El personal super amable, muy atentos a nuestra llegada. Están muy presentes durante el desayuno, que por cierto es muy bueno y variado. Las tortas son exquisitas. Ofrecen café y té, durante todo el día. También hay agua potable disponible para recargar las botellas. La habitación que nos tocó fue muy cómoda. La ubicación es espectacular.

- Lisa (8/5): Definitely recommend! - Loved the exceptional staff, how we were welcomed, and treated daily.
The room was even nicer than the photos as I loved how it was modernized with the shower while authentic with the ceiling.
Loved the large windows overlooking the court to see over to the patio where we had breakfast and coffee.
Loved the safe quiet street with no traffic while being so central and walking everywhere in the Santa Croce area and close to the river.

- Çiğdem Duygu (10/5): - We had a truly wonderful stay and couldn’t be more satisfied. The room was excellent—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed for a relaxing visit. The location was perfect, making it easy to get around and explore the area without any hassle.
The breakfast offering a great variety of fresh and delicious options to start the day right.
What really stood out, though, was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile.
We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others!
- Johana (10/5): Excepcional - Excellent location!!! All was great!

- f0099b000c0b70e9cd8c5d5db3cf583e (10/5): Sjarmerende, historisk, komfortabelt og midt i smørøyet. - Charme. Beliggenhet ( situation). Service og menneskene som drev det. Ingen ting
- 91ddbe19ae4e73afaba9dc8d2d39f8dd (9/5): Très agréable - Emplacement, gentillesse des hôtes et propreté Rien

- 9365c8de61d472535c3fed41a408b19e (9/5): Charmant B&B - Très beau cadre atypique à 2 pas de tout, calme avec des hôtes très accueillants, aux petits soins,, de très bons conseils et toujours souriants 🤗 La petite terrasse sur les toits est très agréable. Le petit déjeuner est fourni, de bonne qualité avec des produits locaux. La chambre est spacieuse, très bien décorée et confortable. Un seul.petit hic l'insonorisation mais tout dépend de la fréquentation : 2 nuits plutôt calmes et 1 nuit avec d'autres hôtes assez bruyants (bruits de la douche et talons sur le parquet à des heures tardives).

- Alexis (10/5): Excellent boutique hotel - Isola d’Arno B&B was excellent all around. It is located close to Uffizi Galleries and Piazza San Croce and the river. Easy walking distance to everything, really. We took a taxi from the train- it was super easy. The staff was excellent- helpful and friendly. The space was comfortable. The AC worked very well and we were there during 95 degree days! The breakfast was delicious. The room was quiet, which is impressive because we arrived during a local festival that had a parade with drums during the day and the fireworks at night. We’d definitely recommend this place and stay there again.
- Belinda (10/5): -
- Yuji (10/5): Awesome - Very nice B&B in the great location with fantastic hosts. Highly recommended!
- Tina (10/5): Would highly recommend - An array of food for breakfast. Hospitality was above and beyond from helping with luggage, calling a cab, giving a map and directions for events. The lack of proximity to events we had scheduled.
- Claudia (10/5): Cozy and authentic place! - Everything! And the cherry on top of the cake was the staff! Amazing people! Nothing!
- Lapina (10/5): -
- fabio (10/5): - Tutto perfetto Niente
- Ceylan (6/5): Konum harika ama bu fiyata daha iyi olabilirdi - Konum harika her yere yürüdük. Personeller çok ilgili hepsi çok cana yakın. Romada kaldığımız otelden sonra beklenti yüksekti. En başta turistler için pisuvar veya fiskiye olmaması en büyük eksiydi romada bu fiskiye vardı mesela. Otel çok ses geçiriyor bebekle gittiğimiz için biz bile bebeğimiz ağlayınca rahatsız olduk. Odalarda bence olağanüstü temiz değildi yerler hep tozdu.
- Jocasta (10/5): Melhor impossível! - Lugar autêntico, acolhedor, funcionários atenciosos, café da manhã delicioso. Toda a logística funcionou muito bem. Nos sentimos seguros e em casa. Super recomendo.
- Ban (9/5): - A wonderful stay! The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, and went out of their way to accommodate me. The room was spacious, spotless and beautifully kept. The location is perfect — close to everything yet peaceful. I would highly recommend this place and would gladly return!

- Annegret (8/5): -
- Andrea (9/5): -
- Mary (8/5): No regrets with choosing this B&B but will try another next time. - Central location with easy access to neighborhoods not as overwhelmed by tourists. Some good restaurant recommendations. Noise from adjoining rooms (conversations and snoring) and from apartment above (heavy footsteps every morning beginning around 7:30). Overall, these were minor distractions.
- Sandra (7/5): Hosts were very helpful. Breakfast was great. - Location although a bit noisy as on a busy alleyway. Dark access on stairs.
- Conrad (9/5): - excellent location, helpful staff
- Julian (10/5): Lugar super recomendable - Excelente lugar para alojamiento, muy buen servicio y excelente desayuno.
- Georgiana (10/5): - You feel like home. As simple as that!
- Mary (10/5): - Clean & comfortable rooms. Very quiet, no street noise. Good hot water.
Central position.. within 10 min walk of many atyracyions, restaurants, etc. Can't really think of anything negative.
- Mary-Anne (9/5): - Friendly and helpful staff, clean accommodation and great location. I would stay here again.
- Brigitte (10/5): - Tout était parfait! Un accueil charmant et des hôtes disponibles. Je recommande. Rien.
- Gabrielle (9/5): The B&B Isola was quaint and convenient - The property was centrally located— easy to get wherever we needed to be!
- Marc (10/5): Magnifico. - breakfast was spectacular. Coffee on the veranda was so nice. Room was clean, bright and sunny. The hosts were so nice and so attentive. It was perfect If only there were screens on the windows (which is not something in Italy apparently). Lots of mosquitos at night if you open the windows. But that is all over Florence. The B&B was perfect otherwise. So happy with it.
- Melissa (10/5): - Hostess was very kind and helpful.
- Nada (10/5): Mycket trevligt och centralt - Trevlig B&B i ett gammal byggnad. Rummet är modern och bekväm. Trevlig personal. Underbar terass där man kan äta god frukost.
- Cengiz (9/5): - Güleryüzlü ve iyi ev sahibi, mükemmel lokasyon merkezde her yere çok yakın. iyi kahvaltı. B&b olduğu için kalan herkesin sessiz olmasi gerekiyor. Yanınızda terliklerinizi getirmeyi unutmayın.
- ADRIANA (10/5): Excelente estadia! Café da manhã fantástico, no coração de Florença - O café da manhã Não tivemos nenhum ponto negativo
- Schmidt (10/5): The host was lovely! - The breakfast had a nice variety of.
The location was excellent!
- Marian (10/5): A marvellous stay in a quiet but excellently located bed & breakfast - The rooms are in a beautiful old Florentine style house. The room was well appointed, stylish with comfortable bed and top quality bedding. Breakfast was varied, plentiful and tasty. Croissants, jams, cold cuts, toast, fruit, yoghurt, cereals - something for everyone’s taste. Delicious tarte limione well worth a try! Excellent location down a quiet side street just off Piazza Santa Croce and literally a 5 minute walk to the Uffizi along the River Arno. A great approach to my first view of Ponte Vechhio! And last but not least - the hosts Beatrice and Lorenzo! A lovely, genuine couple who made me feel very welcome in their wonderful b&b. Grazie Mille 😊 Nothing.
- John (10/5): A nice B&B in Florence - The staff at the B&B were extremely helpful with assisting us in getting a bag returned that was accidentally left in a taxi. The room was big and clean, and had a nice outdoor patio and a good breakfast selection. The B&B was in a good location for walking to major attractions and restaurants.
- Kelly (8/5): Lovely people & comfortable accommodations near interesting sights/ restaurants. Stairs required. - Staff was very kind and helpful in every way. Especially appreciated the support booking the bus ticket and arranging a taxi on departure day. The breakfast was lovely and the patio area was so pretty. The inside area and room were spotless and the bed was comfy. AC worked great. Once we checked in, it was helpful to use the elevator. Locating the entry door on the street was challenging as there was no picture given prior to check in and we arrived later in the day. We had to walk up three sets of stairs to check in and it was difficult to locate, the FIRST time. There was not a lot of signage explaining to go to the third floor to check in. We thought we were booking a hotel so it was confusing at first to enter an apartment building with a common lobby and stairs. Not recommended for elderly or families with a lot of luggage or children to move.
- Georg (9/5): -
- Peter (10/5): Wonderfully perfect - Breakfast was amazing!
- CELINE (9/5): A recommander! - La situation: proche des lieux incontournables mais dans une rue calme.
L atmosphère de la chambre et des espaces communs. La terrasse avec vue sur les toits est un vrai plus.
La bouilloire et cafetière à disposition avec sachets de thé et café offerts.
L accueil à l arrivée et lors des petits-déjeuners. Rien
- Daniel (10/5): Tres belle emplacement dans la ville avec un personnel tres serviable. - La chambre spacieuse, la terrasse pour le déjeuner , le personnel très disponible Le hall d’entrée qui sent l’humidité et le système d’éclairage dans les escaliers…manquant,pas tres clair le soir au retour d’une belle soirée.
- Kevin (10/5): - The host was helpful with booking a taxi and arranging dinner, etc. They even packed a breakfast for us as we have an early flight to catch.
- Kristofer (10/5): - Värdarna var supertrevliga och väldigt hjälpsamma!

- Garrett (10/5): - The staff was very friendly and helpful. Greta location and facility
- Caroline (10/5): Parfait !! Merci pour tout ! On reviendra ! - Tout était à proximité. L’accueil des 2 responsables exceptionnel : de vrais professionnels et bienveillants. Le logement était très propre et calme pourtant en plein centre de la ville. On y retournera ! Parce que je dois indiquer qque chose, il me semble qu’un micro ondes serait pratique dans la salle de l’entrée puisqu’il y a déjà la bouilloire cafetière etc ce serait utile … mais c’est vraiment un détail.
- Pilar (10/5): B&B acogedor y bonito, estancia cómoda y tranquila, anfitriones encantadores - Nos alojamos en este B&B durante 3 noches en nuestro viaje a Florencia a finales de julio, y nos encantó. Los anfitriones Benedetta y Gabriele no pudieron ser más amables y solícitos en todo, desde esperarnos a hacer el check-in más tarde por retrasos en nuestro vuelo, a bajar a la puerta a ayudarnos a subir las maletas hasta el B&B (el ascensor sólo llega a la segunda planta), haber traído especialmente leche desnatada para el desayuno después de pedirla en la reserva (la única vez que nos pasó en todo nuestro viaje a Italia), ayudarnos con los mapas y las atracciones (y nuestro italiano chapurreado mezclado con español xD), llevarnos un día el desayuno a la habitación por sentirnos algo peor, y finalmente guardarnos las maletas durante unas horas después del check-in antes de pedirnos un taxi a la estación de tren. ¡De 10!
El B&B se encuentra en un edificio renovado del siglo XVII, y está renovado de forma que mantiene la arquitectura antigua junto con todas las comodidades modernas. Tanto la salita común como las habitaciones están decoradas con mucho gusto y encanto, creando un ambiente muy acogedor y nada deprimente. La salita común tiene varias mesas donde poder desayunar y algunos sillones para sentarse, y contaba con café, té, infusiones y galletas todo el día, además de una fuente de agua depurada muy útil, y varios libros por si querías sentarte a leer. También tienen una terraza donde poder desayunar en el exterior.
El desayuno mediterráneo siempre puesto con mucho mimo, con muchas opciones, con cereales, granola, frutos secos, fruta variada, mermeladas, tostadas, pasteles y bizcochos, galletas, jamón y queso, zumos y yogures (además de té, café e infusiones). Como decía otra review, también propondría dejar el frutero disponible todo el día, además de las infusiones y galletas. Como mínimas pegas, añadiría una jabonera para no manchar la encimera del lavabo, y el toallero estaba más alejado del lavabo, con lo que resultaba algo más incómodo (pero había sitio debajo del lavabo para doblar las toallas también). Los suelos de madera de la habitación también crujían bastante en algunas zonas, aunque nunca nos llegaron a molestar ruidos interiores de los vecinos a la hora de dormir. También nos entraron algunos mosquitos por dejar la ventana abierta durante parte del día, a pesar de que la habitación contaba con un repelente de mosquitos. Pero bastó con pedirle al chico que se encargaba de la limpieza que por favor cerrara la ventana tras limpiar la habitación. Por lo demás no tenemos ninguna pega, todo fue muy bien.

- Peter Finne (10/5): ¡Como en casa! - La ubicación es inmejorable. A pie de todo y a la vez, muy tranquila. Beatrice y su compañero fueron muy amables, nos sentimos en casa. El desayuno es excelente, con mermeladas, fiambres y quesos caseros.
- Natalie (10/5): Absolutely perfect. Will definitely stay again. Loved it x - Friendly welcome, spacious room, staff were fantastic & couldn’t do enough for us.
- Fava (10/5): Consigliatissimo per chi vuole stare in un ambiente intimo e raccolto. - Siamo stati benissimo ci siamo sentiti a casa accolti con professionalità e tanta empatia persone veramente squisite e attente.colazione indimenticabile con ottimi prodotti la stanza era raccolta e ben arredata doccia grande e tutto molto pulito. La location è in un bellissimo palazzo storico ed situato in una via tranquilla a due passi dalla chiesa di Santa Croce. Che dire ci siamo sentiti a casa e sicuramente lo consigliamo se volete passare dei giorni a Firenze questo è il posto giusto dove stare. Ancora un grazie affettuoso a Lorenzo e Beatrice. ❤
