Hotel Garibaldi Blu

Amazing three nights at Garibaldi Blu. The entire staff was amazing. They offered suggestions for our visit, solved any problems we had and helped us as needed. Our bartender was a very friendly lady and my wife and I enjoyed talking to her, having a drink at the bar or sitting in the massive lobby. Everything worked in the rooms and we have a very comfortable night. The location is perfect. In the middle of Santa Maria Novella Square. Driving in was a challenge but the website and emails prior to arrival got us to the front door safely. I absolutely would stay again.

I’m sorry I had to give the hotel a 4 star. The staff were amazing. The location awesome right on the square. However there is construction next door and it felt like they were in our room. LOL. And trust me it is not the hotels fault I just want you to be aware. The hotel is beautiful but it does have a couple of quirks. Every time I would head to my room Spock scared Me, just a little. The breakfast and the breakfast staff were awesome.

It is such a beautiful property and at an excellent location. Gave a very nice feel of history and modernity. Breakfast is not vast but was some of the tastiest I have eaten. Everything seemed very high quality. Everything felt like a high-end hotel. However, we had major issues with mosquitos. Got bit all over all night making the nights very uncomfortable. We did complain but I am not sure if the staff took any steps because we got same mosquito treatment next night too which basically dampened our overall experience. Finally, there was a faint odour that I didn’t have much issue with but noticed was gone the next day. Staff did put electric air freshener that might have helped with the odour.
