I had the chance to stay (unfortunately only) one night in this beautiful hotel. I was given a nice room on the 5th floor with an astonishing view on the Arno river and the stay - even if shorter - was absolutely unforgettable! the room was spotless, and the bathroom as well. on the last floor there is a bar open until 9.30 pm (after that honesty bar), and in that same place you can have breakfast in the morning. the view is incredibly beautiful because you can see the upper part of the Duomo. from the second terrace, which we did not use because of pouring rain, you overview the Arno, which is also a beautiful view. the staff is very kind, and always paying attention to your needs. for sure we will be back...!

If you visit Florence this is the only place to stay. It comprises the top 4 floors of an old Florentine tower just downstream from the Ponte Vecchio.

The views from the two rooftop terraces are unrivalled and on a balmy moonlight night with a glass of very decent wine from the honour bar and my wife by my side I was in seventh heaven.

The staff are nothing less than wonderful, they even went to the trouble of DHLing my favourite old straw hat, inadvertently left in our room. Don't think hotel, think comfortable town house where you are a welcome guest, I can't wait for my next visit. They do only serve breakfast but quite honestly with so many top quality places to eat within a very short walk you wouldn't be dining in anyway.

One small warning, the hotel is right on the top fashion street in Florence, Ferragamo is opposite for example, so hide your wife's credit cards!!

Room tip: Unfortunately you cannot prebook the rooms with private veranda, I have no idea why, however it's the view from the roof terraces you want anyway

The only mistake you can make with this hotel is not booking it. The location is amazing and very close to the major sightseeing spots. Furthermore, you can enjoy awesome views from the two terraces (views on the Ponte Vecchio and the Great Cathedral).

More details:
- ancient tower hotel
- great breakfast buffet
- very helpful service guys
- free wifi

We recently stayed 6 nights at this hotel. The experience was first rate. The location of the hotel to the major tourist attractions was excellent nothing more than 5-6 minutes walk. The breakfast included was outstanding and the views of the Duomo, Bell Tower and Pitti Palace from the roof top breakfast/ bar area was very unique. Both the Airport and Railway station are located at minimal taxi fares, €23 and €13 respectively. Our room was a very good size and we cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. We would not hesitate to stay here when next in Florence

Room tip: The bar available on the rooftop provides drinks at reasonable prices and it is a very pleasant way to relax before going out for dinner with all the major attractions viewable for this location.

grazie for your kind comment on Tripadvisor.
Your suggestion about location with the taxi fair it's very important to have a better idea regarding distances in Florence, so I'ld like to add that, after you reach the Antica Torre di Via Tornabuoni 1, you can forget taxis or transportation because everything is walking distance!

Stayed here on our honeymoon. No frills in lobby, but amenities on roof are great. Feel like you are taken care. Few rooms in hotel makes for outstanding personal service. Would stay here again for sure.
