Perfect Stay in Florence
We absolutely loved every moment of our stay at Hotel Torre Guelfa. We arrived after midnight and the night manager was welcoming and very helpful.
Our room was perfect: we had booked via Hotels.com and picked 2 single beds and after a misunderstanding by Hotels.com the hotel made sure that this is what we had.
The room was quirky but it had everything we needed and was very comfy and warm which was much appreciated as it is November and very cold outside.
For all those expecting a hotel where every room is identical and modern please book somewhere else! This hotel has lots of history and is a perfect reflection of Florence.
The views from the tower are outstanding, as good as the Duomo and completely free for guests.
The breakfast was delicious and the staff are friendly and very attentive, especially Vivianne.
I couldn't fault or suggest any improvements, our experience here was nothing short of heaven!

Good hotel great location
Myself and my wife stayed 3 nights end of October. Hotel staff are really excellent. Room and general hotel area very clean. Our room was 1st floor overlooking the small cobble street. Clean but very dark and smell of damp in the room. The hotel is really old and natural....so if you want a bright modern hotel this is not for you. Roof tower is very nice....view is excelleenr. Location is amazing just 2 mins walk from Ponte Vechio bridge. I would stay again but would recomend a room higher up and brighter.

Perfectly centrally located, staff are so nice!
Amazingly friendly staff and super breakfast included. Leave your alarm clock at home as the nearly on time 5:30am daily noise of the street vendors pulling out their souvenir carts is like a freight train that loudly clicks and clacks on the cobble stone alleys for over an hour each morning.

Ok first just take a taxi, don't try to drive. We've driven around Europe before but Florence is a nightmare esp trying to get to the hotel. If you must, the hotel is great in having a driver to park your car and retrieve it when you need to leave. Food was good, room was great.

Very nice property - 2 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio bridge plus museums, plazas, etc!
Lovely breakfast room and staff! Vivian was wonderful! Room was spacious, bed was a little firm. Rooftop has a small bar and gorgeous view of the city. 5 star except for firm bed.

This hotel was historical and a perfect place to stay for our two days in Firenze. The location is very central and within easy walking distance to many amenities. The staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast was good and the products fresh. The view from the rooftop was fantastic and the hotel itself felt like stepping back in time.

Historic building in the heart of Florence. Does not have a restaurant and breakfast choice was limited. Capable staff but outdated restrooms etc.
