We spent four days at this hotel and had two rooms as we were traveling with cousins. The hotel lobby and all of the main areas of the hotel were beautiful. However, the rooms were dated, although very clean. The room had a mishmash of furniture, with a plastic chair, a wooden box for the refrigerator that looked homemade with numerous scratches and a wooden bench to hold a suitcase that had also seen better days. There were also no pictures on the walls which didn't help the atmosphere. Again, the room was very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was nice. The air conditioning also worked well. We drove to the hotel and appreciated the parking (for a fee) that was located in the back of the hotel. We were lucky the gate was open when we arrived so we could park our car, However, when we left the gate was closed and we had to go into the hotel to ask them to open it. The site lines when exiting was not good and lucky we didn't get hit when leaving. A button located near the gate so guests could easily exit would be helpful as well as a mirror to see oncoming traffic. The reception staff, especially Rafaelle, were excellent. Very professional and helpful. We really appreciated all of their assistance. The hotel is in a good location with buses and trams nearby. Although we opted to walk everywhere, with only a 15-20 walk to all the major attractions. Rafaelle gave us a great recommendation for a restaurant and made reservations for us. It was called Alla Grigio I believe. It was wonderful and one of our best meals during our 18 days stay in Italy. The breakfast was very good and the staff working there was also excellent. Overall, a great stay and we will recommend to all of our friends and family.

cozy hotel. A quiet environment and close to the city centre. The reception was top-notch. I'm looking forward to coming soon

Stayed at the La Fortezza hotel for three nights in Florence. This hotel is clean and quiet. The staff are all friendly and helpful. A special shout out to the breakfast staff who baked me some vegan croissants and even got me some vegan yogurt!! (If you are vegan - let them know and they’ll make sure you have a delicious breakfast!). It’s a 10 min walk to the train station. Although not right in the centre - we liked this as the centre was so busy and noisy!! We really appreciated a quiet place to rest in between very busy, action packed days. A lovely little hotel.
