Mixed feelings

To start , excellent position of hotel. Family run , good communication. I was recommended by a friend. I think they must have had a lovely room. We were in 102. On arrival the heater was on, it had been a hot day and I couldn’t breathe. Tried to open a window but they were sealed shut, you couldn’t see through them due to shutters which were also screwed down. At 11pm we had the bedroom door open for an hour to try to get some air through. Had good nights sleep. The hotel looks nothing like the photos. It’s tired. Breakfast was fine, be careful of the passive aggressive waitress. If she doesn’t think you need something, everyone knows about it. The hotel isn’t 4 star. 3 star at best. I wouldn’t stay again in case I was put into room 102! I would have loved one of the rooms advertised. I could have asked for a swap but my husband is very passive and hates any sort of complaint. Read the trip advisor reviews. Dig deep. If you don’t care about where you lay your head , this is a fantastic hotel for position.

The room decor was a little old fashioned and the sheets were not especially nice, but bathroom was modern and spotless. The location really can't be beat and the view from the tower was absolutely amazing. The breakfast was fantastic, one of the best hotel breakfasts I've had. We would absolutely stay there again.

Perfect Stay in Florence

We absolutely loved every moment of our stay at Hotel Torre Guelfa. We arrived after midnight and the night manager was welcoming and very helpful. Our room was perfect: we had booked via Hotels.com and picked 2 single beds and after a misunderstanding by Hotels.com the hotel made sure that this is what we had. The room was quirky but it had everything we needed and was very comfy and warm which was much appreciated as it is November and very cold outside. For all those expecting a hotel where every room is identical and modern please book somewhere else! This hotel has lots of history and is a perfect reflection of Florence. The views from the tower are outstanding, as good as the Duomo and completely free for guests. The breakfast was delicious and the staff are friendly and very attentive, especially Vivianne. I couldn't fault or suggest any improvements, our experience here was nothing short of heaven!
