We loved this hotel! The location is great, central but quiet. The room was modern and very nicely decorated. The bathroom was lovely. I caution, however that if you have any mobilty problems, you may want to mention this at booking to inquire about alternatives. The tub/shower is very high, hard to get in and out of, no safety rails.... More

On a recent visit to Italy, my boyfriend and I arrived in Florence with no hotel room booked for the night. On a whim, we decided to wing it...and I'm so glad we did! After a long drive, we arrived in Firenze needing to use the bathroom facilities. Lucky for us, we ended up outside the Hotel L'Orologio. After a... More

Beautiful and well appointed hotel. The double Superior is super spacious even by US standards. Lots of closet space. Huge and modern bathroom all really nicely decorated. Great location near to Santa Maria Novella Termini. Helpful staff. More

That was my first time at L'Orologio one of the several hotels with gorgeous view on Santa Maria Novella, you will understand it better from breakfast room as not all the rooms do have such privilege . Hotel is well kept with common areas divided and balanced between a logial classical touch with some contemporary twist that make the combination... More

We recently stayed in Florence for 6 days - our stay at the L'Orologio was perfect. It is in a perfect location, right on the Piazza Santa Maria Novella and very close to the train station as well as being a few minutes walk from the Duomo. We were given a room on the 4th floor which had great views... More

We were in Florence for a week-long conference (staying at the Four Seasons) and were arriving one day before its start. The local hosts suggested this hotel and we were certainly pleased with their recommendation. In fact, the driver who drove us from the airport to the hotel also had glowing reviews for the hotel. Location is perfect (our driver... More

This is a lovely hotel and we enjoyed it immensely. They go rather over the top on the clock theme (chronomentrophobia is a fear of clocks) especially as not many work - maybe they got fed up with winding them! The public areas are chic, modern and comfortable and the staff very polite and helpful - they arranged tickets for... More

We stayed 4 nights in this hotel. We arrived early (9 am) and altough requested were pleasantly surprised our room was ready ! Altough an inside view, we found our room spacious and quiet. One visits Florence to explore the city, so we didn't mind about a view. Staff very helpfull and friendly. Good location. Good Breakfast. Really nothing to... More

We recently visited Florence for 5 days and stayed at the L'Orologio. For some reason we were upgraded and given a room with a roof terrace facing the Duomo, which was obviously fabulous! However, this aside, I would recommend the hotel. It is fantastically located, close to the train station and 6-7mins walk from the Duomo, but despite being situated... More

A little hard to find (the address in the correspondance says number 24, the street sign has something different, only one tiny road you can take to get you there), but once you get there, you find a fantastic hotel. Large rooms by any standards (let alone european ones), nice decor, extremely helpful staff. Centrally located (5-10 minute walk to... More
