Besides the great location of the hotel-there was absolutely nothing yo get excited about for the price of the nightly stay in terms of room, service or amenities.

The quality of the stay at the Brunelleschi is wonderful, from the first greetings by door and front desk staff, housekeeping, breakfast and restaurant staff alike, everyone helped us feel well relaxed and easy. The room and general hotel appointments are lovely, but of course its people make the stay special.

Location & Amazing Staff
The doorman, Umberto, was the top of his profession. We were lost driving into the city - they sent a person 6 blocks over to walk us down the streets to the front of the hotel. The hotel is lovely and the best location. I've stayed in Florence many times - I will return to this hotel from now on.

I have never in my LIFE had a better hotel experience. We received an upgrade to the pool suite - one word, WOW. We were absolutely blown away by the amenities, the service, the room, the food, the view. I could go on. Will recommend this hotel to anyone who will listen.

The hotel really should be a 5 star hotel. We travel to Florence twice a year and could not be more impressed with this hidden gem. It is in a small private courtyard and a five minute walk to the Duomo. The staff is courteous and helpful. The rooms are impeccably clean and the maid service is outstanding. There is a restaurant across the courtyard that we dined at twice even though we have friends that own restaurants in Firenze. We are accustomed to 5 star experiences with Ritz, Auberge, and Four Seasons and we gave this hotel a try because we were in a hurry, We got really lucky!

Great staff, location, poor climate control.
Hotel was great overall, and the staff was fantastic. But the room climate control did not work. It was very stuffy, so I had to open the window to sleep, which was very loud. Resulting in a poor night's sleep.

This property was incredible. Thankful to finally get rid of rental car with tricky driving situation on small city streets, and walk the amazing streets of Florence. Loved the breakfast, fresh squeezed juice, ample options for healthy eating. Rooms were perfect. Workout room very good. Service and staff very helpful and attentive. The location is perhaps the best you could ask for. Historic and awesome hotel. If we ever return we will definitely stay here again.
