If you are mad about avariciousness, Hotel Bijou should be your choice, since you are provided with nothing. Breakfast isn't included, beds are narrow, rooms are lit with one lamp only (no reading lamp near the bed), just one scroll of toilet tissue in the extern bathrooms and no refill when it's depleted. After protesting my colleague and I were... More

I recently booked a room at Hotel Bijou in Florence to stay two nights. I am a college student so price was definitely the key factor here. I booked a double room with a private bathroom and overall the room was very clean, as was the bathroom. We went to check in and were switched to Hotel Annabella (which is... More

we didn't expect much when we booked this hotel and that's why we probably were not disappointed. The room was clean but oldfashioned. There was a lot of noise from the busstops in front of the hotel. Luckily we only stayed one night. It is the ideal hotel for backpackers and young people who don't have a big budget and... More

We stayed here four nights while based in Florence. The staff were very nice and helpful. Their only downfall is the fact they are allowed to smoke in the common area even though it is a "non" smoking hotel. The price and location were right for us, but you get what you pay for. PROS-1) clean rooms and bathrooms; 2)... More

We spent a very pleasant hotel stay. We were satisfied with the accommodation, also with the willingness of staff with the level provided breakfast. Rooms are tastefully decorated, the rooms and bathrooms are clean. The building is very well located with respect to the train station and very blízlo center. We liked the rooftop terrace, from which a beautiful view... More

2 star hotel close to the train station. There is no metro system in Florence so be prepared to walk a lot which is lovely, as everything is within close proximity to the hotel. Beds were comfortable enough, rooms huge and airy. Wifi costs €2 for 24 hours. Staff friendly and accommodating. Would recommend to anyone visiting the beautiful city... More

This was a simple find in florence. Close enough to the action of the duomo, yet far enough to be silent. Street vendors 1 block away for convenient tourist garbage shopping. Great restaurants all around. An distinguished clientele, average age 30 and alone. No party people. Incredible collection of books and guides. Charming layout.

Staff helped us assemble bicycles. Owner stored our excess luggage for 2 weeks free. Great location next to train station. Quiet and mellow. Clean room and good Internet service. Fabulous price. Fast check in and check out. No mosquitoes.

I stayed 1 night at Biijou after a very long flight. I selected this hotel because it is close to the train station and bus station in Florence. I had a room with a full bed and a ensuite bathroom. The hotel is very clean and comfortable, as well as it is very reasonably priced and good for those who... More

We spent two wonderful days at the Hotel Bijou: our room was very clean and welcoming, and the rooftop terrace was simply amazing! Another convenience: the location near the train station. Do not miss it!
