Had the BEST experience at this guesthouse these past few days and would definitely come back…read more We arrived on Sunday around 5pm and took a taxi from the airport (€22). The staff at the guesthouse was waiting for us and had arranged the time of arrival. We were greeted and helped with luggage to the third floor residence. The guesthouse has around 10 rooms and a nice common area. The rooms are great- clean, nice shower and bathroom, air conditioning, good wifi, safe in the closet and good amount of space for a Florence hotel. The staff is there during the week but you get a key to freely enter and leave without having to buzz them. Both Paolo and Andrew were amazing hosts and really made it a great experience for us. The location is also a bonus as you are right across from the Pitti Palace and 2 minutes from the Ponte Vecchio. Don't be alarmed by staying on the opposite side of the Arno, you can easily get to the main spots at most, 20 minute walk. Overall, great stay for the price and would highly recommend. When I travel back to Florence I will certainly be staying here!!!'

A 14th century palazzo with several apartments available for rent for vacation stays. Besides the fact that it is extremely representative of the city. Each apartment has a kitchen angle, free wifi and a unique layout. Lots of antique furniture and interesting pieces. Plus the service is what makes them stand out. They go out of their way for guests and even do a little special something for those celebrating a birthday or anniversary. They also can help with artisan tours, and other various local suggestions on where to eat and what to visit. the price range is great and the surrounding neighborhood is one of the best in the city. Highly recommend for those looking for a unique stay in Florence to feel 'like a local'

The apartment style residences were spacious and had an authentic feel that made our stay very enjoyable. The apartment was fully stocked with amenities and very clean. The location of the residence was ideal in that all major attractions in the city were within a 15 minute walk but the nearby surrounding area was quiet with good restaurants and cafés. The best part of our stay however was the staff. Above and beyond help and assistance with any questions or concerns we had. The head of staff Federico truly cared about our stay and made sure out stay was enjoyable. Highly recommend this place if staying in Florence!

Quest'edificio in particolare, attraversa in lungo tutta l'area fino ad arrivare a Vicolo Bolognetti dove una volta aveva sede un antico teatro all'aperto, da qui nasce l'idea del nome e lo stile di tutto il Residence. Il Residence nasce nel 2015 ed è caratterizzato da appartamenti con alti soffitti, alcuni dei quali affrescati, ogni appartamento è denominato con una famosa opera lirica. Il Residence si snoda così tra terrazzi e balconcini con affacci sui tetti Bolognesi, regalando viste uniche della Basilica di Santa Maria dei Servi. Lungo la strada, che conduce alle due torri si trovano anche il Museo Davia Bargellini, il museo della Musica di Bologna ed alla celebre Corte Isolani

Food was great, rooftop bar newly renovated, rooms were clean, well appointed and spacious. Only wish was to have more English speaking TV channels when it came to winding down at night. Situated along the Arno River was within walking distance to anything you needed or wanted for your stay in Italy. Fun fact - Napoleon's sister Carolina Boneparte once owned and resided at the hotel and is buried in the Church across the street. Not to worry the ceilings were very tall! Hehe.
