"We loved our stay at Benci! It’s in a prime location and surprisingly quiet, given it’s above a bar. Super clean, cute, and comfortable. If you have a larger checked bag be aware there are steps up to the guest house, but it wasn’t an issue for us. The bar downstairs (Moyo Bar) is also very hospitable and a great spot for an espresso or drink. We had a car and the parking garage Benci recommended was close and easy to find. Would definitely book again and highly recommend!"

"Fantastic hotel right in the heart of the most popular tourist spots. Staff are amazing. The rooms are great and very quirky. Rooftop bar and restaurant is amazing. You can have breakfast up there too. The hotel has two properties and the other has a lovely small champagne bar and you can have breakfast in there if you prefer. There no lobby space as such but you don't need it. Be sure to book the rooftop for dinner as it's really popular. "
"Great breakfast- and so many steps!! There is a lift, but there are floors off to the side between floors as well. Room was spacious, clean bathrooms. Fairly quiet, for being in such a busy location. Highly recommend. "
"We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It was much newer, cleaner, and more spacious than many other hotels we've stayed at in Italy. The style and layout felt more like an American hotel — modern, comfortable, and very functional.
The amenities were excellent. We especially appreciated the free laundry facilities, which are rare in Europe. The rooftop bar was a highlight — great atmosphere, excellent drinks, and an incredible view. The pool was small but nicely done, and the entire experience felt easy and relaxing.
One thing to note is that the hotel is quite large, and navigating between buildings requires changing elevators. It’s not difficult, but if you’re in a rush, it can be a bit inconvenient. Still, it's a small trade-off for the overall comfort and quality.
I think this hotel is best suited for families and younger travelers. While there are elevators and it’s accessible, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it for older guests looking for a smaller, more central boutique-style stay. That said, it’s still a much more comfortable option compared to many of the older, smaller hotels in Europe.
The location is a bit outside the city center, but still very manageable with public transportation or taxis.
Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely return."
