This was an excellent place to stay. Positioned as an easy walk to the piazzas and the heart of Florence but not without local charm! The staff were top rate and always friendly. I always feel awkward as an American tourist who doesn’t know much Italian, but they were so patient as I clumsily bounced between languages. Breakfast was great and the room cleaning was excellent and intuitive. My only suggestion would be a small shelf in the shower for shampoo and soap, but that didn’t damper the experience at all.

a very pleasant stay at this hotel

The stay was a pleasure – the location of the hotel just 15 minutes' walk from the train station or the Dome, the very kind hosts providing any information you need, the substantial and high-quality breakfast included, the spacious room, and the impeccable linen. A big plus is the hotel garden which is full of flowers and where you can have moments of relaxation or conversations.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Rita Major. The rooms are basic, but the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, the breakfast was great, and we were close to both the train station and a bus stop that took us to the historic centre in 5 minutes.

Very nice accommodations.

The lobby and breakfast area were very charming. The room was clean and comfortable. There was a problem with the air conditioning so we slept with the window open which was fine except for the noise late at night and then again in the morning. The staff apologized for the problem.

Decent property convenient walkable to most locations. Boise from street as well as other guests was a little more than other places that I’ve stayed previously. Pillows were less than desirable for me but that may be my own preference.

Family owners property. Everyone was nice, from the ladies from the reception area to the Father and 2 son owners. Breakfast spread was nice. Cappuccino, Cafe Americano and Espresso are great. You will wake up with the smell of freshly baked Cornetto 😄 The room was huge. Comfortable beds, bathroom with toiletries and blow dryer. Please consider the flight of stairs when traveling with huge check in luggage anlthough we were assisted by a lady. Towels and bum towels are changed daily. The area has a good number of Osteria, caffe’s and gelsteria nearby. One of the son’s owner Allan I think even accommodated us for early breakfast since our train to Venezia was a little early. We stayed for 4 nights and it was really lovely. They even requested a cab for us since our esim can only do data calling.

Very friendly staffs. Clean room. Has nice complimentary breakfast buffet daily. Very nice and attentive staffs. You can walk to Duomo and other major attractions with ease, about 20-25 minutes. Along the way, you will come across restaurants, bars and coffee shops where locals go. Also there's nice pizzeria right next door. We had great experience staying in this hotel.

Definitivamente la persona que está en recepción es muy amable y tiene esa vocación de servicio, lamentablemente no todo el personal es igual. Por otro lado, los alrededores son seguros y puedes caminar sin ninguna preocupación. Respecto a las habitaciones, puede mejorar mucho. De entrada las camas son muy incómodas y no te permite descansar bien, las paredes son delgadas porque se escucha prácticamente todo lo de otros cuartos, la calle y el lobby. Y entiendo que el hotel busca cuidar sus instalaciones, pero hay demasiadas reglas para la calidad/precio que se ofrece. Dejo 4 estrellas porque tiene mucho potencial el hotel, siemore y cuando puedan tomar de la mejor manera la retroalimentación
