We arrived on the 27th April and we struggled to find the actual hotel, it was very badly signed and when we did find it there was 2 flights of stairs to climb with our bags. On arrival the woman was very prompt and very informative. She showed us to our room, she was very nice. Room was a little... More

Hotel dei Macchiaioli is a great choice for central Florence. All the sites are easily reached and the staff is wonderful. The rooms are small by American standards, but that's to be expected. We also recommend Paolo as a private guide--he is extremely knowledgeable and quite charming. He guided us through the Academia and Ufizzi and we wish we had... More

We stayed here for 5 nights in April. It was very easy to walk to from the train station. From the moment we arrived Paulo was so helpful, he met us at the bottom of the stairs and carried up our luggage...he gave us a great recommendation for dinner, Giglio Rosso, it was great:) The room was small but very...

I found this hotel amazing. Yes, it is not inexpensive, but to be fair Florence is not inexpensive, especially if you want to be in the city centre. I was travelling with my parents and needed a comfortable, central location and found this lovely hotel fit for my purposes. We could reach all main points of interest on foot, within... More

Very good value for money. Rooms are clean and new. Staff were very helpful. Location was great - near the central station and Duomo. If we find ourselves in Florence again, will definitely stay in this hotel again.

I stayed here in March for a week with a friend and it was the perfect hotel to make as a base for exploring Florence and the rest of Tuscany. The rooms were clean and warm (which was welcome as it was a particularly cold week) and the staff were extremely helpful (even helping us make reservations at the museums... More

This is a lovely hotel in a fantastic location - no doubts about it. The rooms were nice and clean - but there were many missing details. For example, there were only 2 pillows for the 2 of us, both very flat. Another example - the towels were of very poor quality - we had white fibre all over us.... More

The Hotel dei Macchiaioli far exceeded our expectations for a city center, affordable hotel. It is a family run operation where you are treated like a family member from the moment you arrive. The whole staff took wonderful care of us. The rooms are modest, clean, and comfortable. Paolo took great care of us weeks before we arrived, patiently answering... More

This is a lovely hotel although lots of stairs up to the reception. The rooms are small but very nicely decorated. The people on reception were very helpful, there were no tea and coffee facilities but they lent us a kettle! The location is very central only a stroll from the big marble church sante Maria del fiore.
