Our 4-star Hotel in Florence overlooking Brunelleschi's Cathedral is firmly established as one of the best and most famous hotels in downtown.The highly sought-after Uffizi Gallery, together with many other Museums and other primary attractions, are all within close distance. The 96 bedrooms and suites are equipped with all amenities and features of a charming property such as direct dial telephone, Internet Access, Satellite TV and in-room minibar. Wireless connectivity is available throughout, including our conference areas and the American Bar. The 4-star Brunelleschi Hotel originates from the recovered invaluable historic structures of the ancient tower named 'Pagliazza' and the medieval church of San Michele in Palchetto. For those who love going back to the past, our very own Private Museum, with exhibits unveiled during the reconstruction project, is a moment not to be missed.

Hotel's Favorite
What a fantastic place! From the moment we arrived to the time we left we could not fault the service, and commitment to making this the best experience for the guests. From the welcome at the door, through front of house and reception, to the housekeeping team and the restaurant and bar staff, nothing was too much trouble and we were always greeted with a friendly, smiling response. We were greeted by name at breakfast, after the first morning, and they had remembered what we liked to eat, drink and where we preferred to sit. Nothing was too much trouble. They ensured that the excellent buffet was always fully stocked - even if it was near the end of breakfast. The juice station made excellent, and personalised, juices, and they remembered what we liked so it was ready for us! The reception team we so incredibly helpful and polite, it was lovely to talk with them. We had a problem with taxis on the bank holiday, and were stranded on the outskirts of the city. One call to the reception team and they sorted out a taxi to pick us up and regularly checked to keep us up to date with when it would arrive. They even checked that the taxi had picked us up. Brilliant service. The food at the restaurant and bar was super. We celebrated a birthday whilst staying with them and they provided an outstanding cake, as well as an excellent dinner. We had light lunch as well - again, absolutely lovely. The bar team were great, and again, remembered the sort of thing we liked, and suggested this as we sat down. They were extremely patient and polite with my poor attempt at Italian and made me feel that it was worth making the effort to speak the language. The location is great - so near the Duomo, the main areas, museums, etc., and wonderful for people watching. The rooms were comfortable (we loved the beds) and very clean, and the staff so great. We absolutely loved staying there and will be back…

We only had 2 nights in this spectacular hotel on our way to the Tuscan countryside. After being there, we wanted a full week! Service, cleanliness, room decor, food and location could not have been better. If I could rate it 10 out of 5, I would!! We'll be back. Highly recommend!!

We arrived with no reservations due to another hotel losing our reservation. It was late, we were very tired and stressed, desperately searching for a room with no luck…the man at the reception desk , Gianni, was extremely sympathetic and helpful. We are traveling Europe for our anniversary, and have had some travel issues with trains hotels etc. This hotel helped us, gave us a beautiful room….and sent a bottle of Champagne to our room as a gift. WOW!!! A+++

The hotel was beautiful. The location was so great. And the service was wonderful. Our room did not have a view but was beautiful and very clean. Paulus Meershoek, the Suite Ambassador/front desk, was incredible. He was helpful and funny. My husband left his phone in a taxi. Paulus sent out for a walk, when we got back, the phone was there. He is a fabulous employee. Florence was wonderful but a bit crowded for me.

Our stay at this beautiful hotel was almost ruined by the reception staff. 3 months ago, we booked a Double Classic Executive room at $463 per night. They put us in a VERY small room (even by European standards). When I nicely complained to the woman who checked us in, I was BRUSQUELY told that that was the only room they had and "tomorrow we Might be able to change it". My wife went down and complained much more forcibly. Miraculously, they found a bigger room for us. Still not the level of room we booked, but acceptable. The next day my wife asked for directions to a laundromat. She was tersely given some vague directions and after searching vainly for an hour, she came back furious and demanded to see the Manager. Ambra, the Manager, did everything right! She offered to do our laundry at the hotel's expense and move us into the class of room we had booked. We opted out of a room change but accepted the laundry offer. Let me stress that Everyone else on the staff was wonderful. Breakfast wait-staff. Housekeeping. Managers. Even Paulus at the Reception had the good grace to apologize to us the next day. The woman at Reception - whose name we have blocked out - should be fired.…

We stayed here for our honeymoon trip in August and it was our first stay in Florence. We arrived in a thunderstorm, the skies opened as we were walking the cobbled streets to find the hotel, it was quite memorable (if somewhat damp) way to make an entrance but the staff at the hotel were very welcoming and helped us to get dry from the storm. Stefano was really helpful throughout our stay with one thing and another, nothing was too much trouble. It was also a lovely gesture to receive a complimentary bottle of Prosecco to our room on the first night. The room was kept to a high clean standard and the air conditioning in the room was welcome each day after walking in the heat of the day. Breakfast was a buffet/self-serve style with plenty of options both hot and cold (the stained glass in the breakfast room was very beautiful). The tower part of the building is really old with lots of character, there is a museum inside the hotel underneath the old tower part which was small but interesting. We would definitely stay there again in future, quite a quirky place. It is also in a central location only a few mins walk to the Duomo and other museums/galleries etc. Highly recommended.…
