We chose the San Fredriano Mansion because we wanted somewhere 'authentic' and unpretentious, and SFM didn't disappoint. We were lucky enough to get Room 7 with a view over the river. Easy access to the rest of Florence - with a bus stop right outside that went to the station and The Academia. Tiziana and Piero were very helpful too.... More

Great location, in close walking distance to anything important. I had a beautiful, huge room. Wifi does not work in the rooms and hardly other than in the lobby. Do not stay during cold periods as they just won't heat the room other than a few hours in the evening and it's freezing cold without. I had bad luck this... More

We enjoyed our stay in room no. 1 at San Frediano Mansion. It's beyond words huge... Too big even, for only 2 people... But beautiful nonetheless. The location is perfect, Ponte Vecchio and all other major sights just a few minutes away. Even though we hardly saw the staff, they were friendly when we did bump into them. There was... More

This hotel is a good alternative for young people traveling on a budget. The location is awesome because it is far enough to be cheaper than other alternatives but close enough to be at a walkable distance (max 20-25 min) to all the main attractions. Staff is really friendly and helpful. We arrived late at night by plane and the... More

Our experience here echoes that of many of the other reviewers. We spent two nights in room number 4 in early July. It is very large with what must have been a 13 foot high ceiling with an old fresco painted on it. I found it a pleasant experience to lie on the bed and look up at it. So... More

We really enjoyed our stay here. The room was huge 8m x 8m with ceilings about 6m high. Our room had a gorgeous fresco on it. Granted, the building is old, but so is Florence and we loved its character. Everything worked properly and we also were very grateful for the air conditioning which was very effective very quickly! We... More

I stayed at this hotel, or B&B, for three nights at the very hot start of July 2012, so the air-conditioning in the room was a godsend. I would highly recommend this is a great place to stay in terms of the hotel itself and its fantastic location just south of the Arno and only a short walk from the... More

Positive points: The location is great, right in the center of oltrarno area, very convenient. The room is big and average clean, there were 2 single mattresses with different thickness but quite comfortable. The staff was friendly. The room was quiet. There is a little fridge and there is a TV. Negative points: The bathroom/toilet was obviously added into the... More

Location of this B&B is excellent, about 10 mins walk from the Ponte Vecchio making it close to all the local attractions, but is on the south side of the river arno, making it quieter and less touristy. The room was big and spacious, the 'double' bed was two singles pushed together, we also had 2 other spare single beds... More
