First off, the innkeepers at this hotel are simply the loveliest people and this reflects the level of service that you will receive if you stay here. Case in point: our flight was delayed, resulting in the potential loss of one night's fees at the hotel. The innkeeper (Andrea) allowed us to stay an extra night to make up for... More

We came a year ago and again, I had no hesitation booking in with Andrea at the Alessandra. Central location just off the Ponte Vecchio. Free Wi-Fi...... great breakfasts and nothing is too much trouble. Stayed with my 12 year old daughter in a bigger room at the rear facing the River Arno this time. Great value. The rooms are...

Wonderful hotel! Location is perfect...walking distance from all the main attractions. The best part of the hotel is the staff...they are friendly, helpful, accommodating, and all around great. I would stay there again just for the service the staff provided. It's not the fanciest or newest hotel, but it's clean and the room was a good size; for the price,... More

We loved this hotel- the room was very spacious and we had a view of the River Arno, The location was fantastic- right in the middle of the downtown area and within walking distance of everything - we were able to walk to Accademia, Uffizi, the Duomo, the river, and all the shopping districts. The hotel staff was very helpful... More

The Alessandra is ideally located for visiting Florence. The breakfast is excellent. The hosts are very accommodating. I highly recommend it. More

Andrea and his mom were great and very hospitable. My girlfriend and I joked that we felt like we were visiting Italian relatives in their home rather than a hotel. They were open and engaging and bent over backwards to help you find places to go. We squeezed in La Accademia only because Andrea stayed on the phone for ten... More

Close enough to everything so you can drop in for a pit stop or to change clothes etc. if conditions change during hte day. We... More

My sister and I recently visited Florence and stayed at Hotel Alessandra. We were delighted with the location. The hotel is situated around the corner from the Ponte Vecchio and The Uffizi. There are many splendid restaurants and shops all around the area, and the Duomo is approximately a 15 minute walk. There are not enough beautiful words in the... More

As all the comments say, this is a great hotel. Nicely furnished rooms, incredibly handy position, very helpful staff - I can't recommend it too highly. BUT Florence has a mosquito problem - take one of those plug gadgets to keep them at bay More
