Top Basilica of Santa Maria Novella Hotel Reviews

Bernini Palace

10/10 Excellent

"Amaizing location , helpful staff and really pretty hotel"

The Social Hub Florence Belfiore

8/10 Good

"I loved that the hotel was a one stop shop. From the restaurant and cafe to the gym to the roof top with food options and the pool. It even has a laundry and spaces to work. It is a little learning curve getting around the hotel, but once you get used to it it’s pretty simple. The only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star was our room and certain spaces had a weird cat smell. We realized it wasn’t just in our room and it only seemed to happen in the bathroom and the water was turned on. Outside of that this place was perfect and highly recommended."

Hotel Albani Firenze

8/10 Good

"Stayed here for 5 nights. Everything here was very nice. Our maid was very sweet and spoke rapidly to us in Italian thinking that we understood every word 😂. The main reason I rated this 4 and not 5 stars was that the breakfast buffet never changed. It was good…but got boring."

The Market Urban Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Very nice front desk, great breakfast and breakfast staff."

The Social Hub Florence Lavagnini

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot"

Hotel Galileo

8/10 Good

"Good location near the train station, but not too close. Super clean, nice modern bathrooms, pleasant staff, and very comfortable beds. This would have been an excellent review except that we had a billing issue regarding breakfast charges. We only ate breakfast at the hotel the first morning but were charged for two days and when I asked to have it taken off the bill, the request was refused. I would still consider staying there again as the location was convenient for our needs."

Grand Hotel Baglioni

10/10 Excellent

"Great location if you’re wanting to train for any day trips. Friendly staff and great food. Recommend the breakfast and having a dinner at the rooftop restaurant."

Grand Hotel Minerva

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay at the Minerva hotel. Perfect location for exploring around the city, and of course you can’t beat the view from the rooftop pool."

Hotel Santa Maria Novella

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was good for room , staff , breakfast and location."
