the room was tiny & stuffy. the bathroom was dirty. everything looked very old & dusty. when we finally opened the window, we saw a wall 2-3 meters in front of us & a heap of garbage below. we spent there 30 scary minutes, as we were trying to check out the reseptionist (extremely helpful & friendly by the way)...

If you see the website of GENESIO you could like the hotel, but please do not trust it. It is very good presented BAD HOTEL. Only the location is good. The breakfast is nothing special but is enough (hot coffee, some bread, some pate and cake). I have stayed for 2 days with my wife in double room and I... More

I needed a cheap, centrally located place to stay in Florence for 4 days while I was traveling from Paris to Central Italy. I read several forums in regards to the Hotel Genesio and ultimately decided that the price and location could not be beat. When I arrived I found my room with en suite bathroom clean and very nice.... More

We chose this hotel on the strength of the mostly positive internet reviews, and though it was a reasonable enough place to stay there are a few things that need pointing out as they're not immediately obvious through the hotel descriptions on the various booking sites. The hotel is in a great location less than ten minutes' walk from Santa... More

We booked a room for 2 nights here for our recent trip to Florence and ended up walking out and forfeiting our one night stay. For starters, I'm in the early weeks of pregnancy and when we arrived, we found out that there is no lift to this hotel, which is on the second floor of the building. There were... More

Did not not like the hotel, I had to change to this hotel halfway through my trip as I extended my stay in Florence and my original hotel was full. The Hotel was dark and dingy which made it seem dirty. The staff were very nice and breakfast was just OK. Very very noisy, from the rooms TV's blaring, every... More

The location of this hotel is great. About a ten minute walk from both the station and the Duomo. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms are a good size, clean and nicely decorated with air conditioning. Our rooms were at the back so we didn't hear the street, however I could hear some noise coming from other rooms.... More
