Frommer's Review

Three partners, Andrea, Paolo, and Fabrizi took over this well-worn old shoe of a place in 2005, one of the only remaining palazzi on this block between the Pitti Palace and Ponte Vecchio. The inn's star is the flower-bedecked, sun-kissed terrace offering a 360-degree vista over the Boboli Gardens, the Oltrarno rooftops, and (beyond a sea of antennas) the monumental heart of Florence. Return visitors book months in advance for the homey rooms that have tiny bathrooms and old tiled floors. Street-side accommodations have double-paned windows that really do block the noise, and the worn, dark wood lacquer furniture is pleasantly unassuming.

Facilities:
Concierge; tour desk; limited room service (breakfast); babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; computer w/Internet access
