Hotel Annalena

Beautiful room with balcony overlooking the Boboli gardens. Hermann at the front desk was lovely and attended to our every need, even after hours. Delicious trattorias all within walking distance. Highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Florence!

Sloppy cleaning and reception, room and bathroom functions out of order. Security lacking in case of incidents. Will not come back. Yes cheap but not 3 stars in real and not for handicapped. I will not recommend any more this lodging to friends.

Check-in was easy, a bit difficult to unload baggage on the street, but that's more an Italian road engineering issue than the hotel's. The location is perfect, and really the best thing about this hotel. Across from one of Giardino di Boboli's entrances and on the best side of the river Arno! The receptionist/owner was very kind, gave us recommendations for dinner, although we had already decided on where to go so we didn't take him up on them. Good sleep, clean room and bathroom. Quite hard mattress, but we didn't mind. Easy check-out and we could keep our baggage there during our walk around the city until the afternoon.

We stayed there for 5 nights. It would have been six but since the hotel is small they couldn't accomodate the extra night we needed to book a day in advance. Glad we made the initial reservation. Staff was very helpful and cheerful. The foom was great, had a garden view, large and clean. It is right next to the Biboli Gardens and just down the street from the Pitti Museum. Great location. About a 10ish minute walk to the Fancy bridge. It was very quiet in the hotel. This is an old building so it does have some indiosincracies not found in new hotels or complete remodels. That is part of the charm. It feels more like Italy than Holiday Inn. We enjoyed our stay and plan on staying here again when we visit Firenzi.

Wonderful old palace in the centre of Florence. Very friendly reception. Aircondition. I really loved the place and will come back. Very rich breakfast. Lovely and caring rooms. Everything very clean and cared for. Pictures and sculptures interesting and beautiful.

We decided to visit Firenze and found a place with a great position not far from Ponte Vecchio and the center. The staff was very kind and helpful for information we needed. The breakfast was great and very well organized. We can reccomend this hotel for travelers to Florence!
