Grand Hotel Cavour

What can I say?! The location is amazing, 5 minute walk from the Vecchio and Duomo (depends how quick you walk). Easily the best placed hotel in the city! The staff were absolutely incredible and the most hospitable, special credit to Gabriella who was nothing short of amazing in helping us with transfer requests and general day to day information we needed. Every single member of staff were lovely and kind, even with my poor Italian, they spoke perfect English. The food was superb, a vast array to suit any dietary needs! In regards to the room, we were in a standard room, which was also perfect, very spacious for the two of us, air-con worked perfectly, which was vital after being out in 35 degree Celsius heat all day. We were on the first floor, heard nothing from the street in terms of noise regarding nightlife/dustbin men/taxis etc, so that’s another point for the Cavour! It was my first trip to Florence, and second for my now Fiancé (Ponte Vecchio was the perfect location), and we would recommend the Grand Cavour to anyone and everyone, we will definitely be coming back!

The best air conditioning we’ve experienced on our trip in Italy. Beautiful rooftop. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Free luggage storage. The shower and room was small, but it had everything we needed. Great location as well.

Great location in the heart of the historical district. The hotel is luxurious and has a great rooftop terrace. The terrace is small so it's best to reserve a spot ahead of time. It can be quite pricey for drinks but I guess you pay for the view! The staff are very friendly and helpful. We loved the breakfast as well. Overall, this is a great place to stay in Florence if you don't mind the bustle of the city center. We will definitely stay here again.
