They charged a city fee but according to Hotels.com my reservation included all the taxes and fees.
1-night trip

4/10

The entry was less than inviting. If the room was painted and furniture cleaned would help make it more presentable. Felt old and dirty.
2-night trip

8/10

The room was spacious and adequate for four people. Staff was amicable and room was overall clean. Location was very central and we walked to the Duomo in ten minutes. One unexpected issue was that it was tricky to get to the hotel by car due to the restricted zones you aren’t allowed to drive into. And, once you get to the hotel, it turns out that parking is located at another hotel. Not far (maybe two blocks away) but, again, tricky to get to and would have been nice to know from the get-go. Also, during the second/last night the A/C broke. E think it was something to do with the fan as it started banging so loudly that all four of us woke up around 2:15 or so. We had to turn it off completely (hello stuffiness and heat) and for the next hour it continued to make noises every two or so minutes. I didn’t go back to sleep until 5:45am…. With a 6:15am wake, that was really inconvenient. Probably nobody’s fault, but very unfortunate. Interestingly, my SIL told me later that their fan didn’t work either…she stayed in the same hotel.

Not sure why it's only rated as a 2 star. We stayed for 1 night with 2 rooms. It was very comfortable and super clean. Our rooms were very large, had a fridge, desk, etc. I would have no concern staying there again!

Very good location, super easy to walk to the station and several museums and famous places of the city.
2-night trip

10/10

Our stay at the hotel was very nice. We had a quadruple room and it was large and comfortable. The hotel is close to the train station which is nice if you are traveling by train. The hotel is located a few blocks away from the extremely touristic areas of town, which was nice. However, there are several restaurants and shops close by. I would definitely stay there again

This hotel is tired! When you enter off the street it feels dirty, although our room was clean. I would not recommend this hotel, since it is expensive for the quality and condition of the building.

This property was very nice. Great location to walk to every tourist attraction except for Vatican City. The rooms were a bit small, but they were accommodating and gave our family of 4 (4 adults) 2 separate rooms.

The room we had are huge if you’re travelling with kids and even friends. So much space. Quite and accesible to everything. 5mins walk to market which I loved.

2-night trip

10/10

Hotel is a good value for the money. It is spacious, safe and comfortable. It is about a 10 minute walk from the train station and a 10-20 minute walk to most of the major sites in Florence. The Hotel St. James is across from a park filled with Linden Trees that perfume the park in the evening. I would recommend it to family and friends.

3-night trip

6/10

While this accommodation was within walking distance of the train station and all the sites, overall it was very basic. It was extremely noisy, potentially a school excursion was staying in the same accomodation, the bathroom facilities were quite tight and the bed was uncomfortable.
