Relais Grand Tour and Grand Tour Suites offers a non-hotel experience. Upon arrival, the sense is more of entering a home, which I believe the B&B was before conversion to taking guests. We were in the Actor Suite, a lovely, clean, well-appointed room on the ground floor. The two of us had sufficient room for our luggage, and appreciated the... More

We stayed here for three nights last week. Truly fantastic place. Extremely central - walking distance from all the sights - with very friendly and welcoming hosts. The bedroom and bathroom were decorated beautifully, with tasteful furniture and pictures. We had a room overlooking a small garden and pretty rooftops, and it was silent at night. The fridge was useful,... More

Felt like we had our own apartment. Room was huge and so nicely decorated. Cristina was super helpful with booking museum tickets, dinner reservation and answering all our questions. Great price for a lovely stay. More

Cristina connected with me before I left the States and set up my museum reservations. Her easy hospitality meant the world to us. Giuseppe was very gracious and helpful, bringing my suitcase up the stairs and chatting. It didn't matter that the shower was tiny; we so enjoyed the historical character of the room. The hotel is situated on a... More

The 5 of us stayed for 4 nights at the B&B, taking 3 rooms on the 2nd floor. Although initially surprised, we became comfortable with leaving our room key in a shelf when we left the B&B each day. Our rooms were clean and comfortable, although I find the shower cubicle in our room a little small (my husband and... More

Charming! We (2 couples, budget travelers) spent 2 nights here in mid-October 2011. Lovely antique furnishings in a beautifully restored house. Comfortable rooms; welcoming, helpful owner and staff; great wifi. Perfect location for our time in Florence. Short walk to breakfast at Café Nabucco -- coupon included in the room price. Fine, but language barrier made it difficult to determine... More

My wife and I stayed in the Mirror Suite for 2-nights in October. Cristina is a wonderful host and our stay was magnificent. This was our first trip to Florence. Based on other places we have stayed in Italy, I rank the Relais Grand Tour very high. We would definitely stay here again. The 14th century property is very charming... More

My wife and I stayed three nights in May. Our upstairs room, facing a courtyard, was quiet, tasteful and spacious with private bathroom, mini-fridge, coffee making and reliable wi-fi. The location worked well for us as we could easily walk to central Florence’s highlights as well as the train and bus stations. The breakfast coupons provided flexibility both with respect... More

I can't say enough about Christina and Giuseppe. They are truly kind and welcoming hosts. The b&b has tons of character and charm, and the suites are big and very comfortable. I will recommend the Grand Tour to friends, and I hope to return to Florence and this b&b in some time soon. More
