very narrow shower cabin with very low entrance /i hit my head/, very noisy outside, especially my second night, limited breakfast but relatively good price, great location otherwise /next to bus to the airport and the city but you can find even cheaper and more comfortable place some half an hour walk further away as I did - l Angolttto...

I stayed at this hotel with 20 other people for a study abroad trip! In the few weeks we were in Italy, we stayed in over 4 hotels and this one was by far the best! The personal service and handmade cappuccinos in the morning were fantastic! It was the hardest hotel and staff to say goodbye to when we... More

Myself and 20 others stayed at Hotel Hermes for 4 nights as part of a study abroad trip and I couldn't have been more pleased with the decision to stay here. The place was very simple but for a group that spent most of their time outside of the hotel it was perfect! Patricia was incredibly helpful and her staff... More

The hotel itself is definitely a budget hotel - one shared bathroom per floor, and the rooms were nice enough and clean. However, the staff was very helpful, and its proximity to the train station was very convenient, if a bit loud at night. Also, no air conditioning is not ideal in Florence - it can get pretty humid in... More

Was looking for a cheap spot to rest my head while visiting Florence. On the plus side, very close to the train station, less than 5 minutes, comfortable bed, and surprisingly quiet considering proximity to train station. Room nothing to write home about but sheets were clean. Breakfast basic (bread and bread) and served on the early side 7-9. Internet... More

Thank you for taking your time to write your review regarding my little hotel...I appreciate it. Yes, we try to cater to our guests with hospitality as it used to be: cleanliness and cordiality.

Excellent budget stay for backpackers who have an agenda to learn Fiorentine history! Clean and spacious rooms that allow your to unload all your baggage. Awesome breakfast for a budget! Exceptional cuppucino brewed by the staff! Engage in a brief conversation with the staff and you may just be surprised by their responses and recommendations.

This hotel is located right across the street from the train station. you don't need to take a cab. some jerk charged us 8 euros to drive us around the block. the hotel is walking distance from many major points of interest. the staff was very cordial and Patricia graciously made reservations for us for the Uffizi and Accademia.

Very friendly welcome by Patrizia, presummably the owner. Unfortunately, she was often not available. She gave us a lot of good advices. Close to the City center. Just OK for sleeping if you have ear plugs. The local air conditionning system is awfully noisy, as well as the fan in the bath room but this is less annoying. Furniture could... More

This hotel is conveniently located, and well priced. The owner patricia is very kind, helpful and speaks perfect English which was very helpful for us in Florence. it's really for the travelers on a budget, and has your basic necessities (bed, ac, washroom).
