“Cozy B&B with Friendly Hosts”

I stayed at this beautiful little B&B for about 12 days and nights while I was working on an art project for a local university. I was booked in a single room for the first part of the trip, but I absolutely loved the room with the kitchenette that I enjoyed at the end of my stay. It was the perfect little refuge after a long, hard day of work. The breakfast was perfect, as was the rooftop view. The atmosphere was incredibly relaxing and serene. Everything was perfectly clean. However, what I appreciated the most are the warm, helpful, and generous hosts. It is so rare to find people in this world who are so genuinely kind. I have friends in Florence who work at fancy hotels that I can book at a discount, but I would choose Locanda dei Guelfi B&B over those places the next time I need a room in Florence. I'll take cozy over stuffy and austere any day.

“Perfect location”

Thank you for a lovely few nights stay. Great location and very friendly and accommodating owners. Clean room and bathroom and a very comfy bed. Roof top terrace is a bonus for a view of the city. No lift so be warned it’s a lot of stairs! Nice / basic breakfast and no tea or coffee facilities … more

Thank you for a lovely few nights stay. Great location and very friendly and accommodating owners. Clean room and bathroom and a very comfy bed. Roof top terrace is a bonus for a view of the city. No lift so be warned it’s a lot of stairs! Nice / basic breakfast and no tea or coffee facilities in the room, but if you ask they will provide. Would recommend this B&B to couples or perhaps a couple of friends travelling.

“Cute B&B”

We loved staying at this hotel. It was quaint and just what we wanted! It was great exercise going up and down the 6 flights of stairs! The staff proactively helped us carry our luggage up when we arrived and down when we left! The breakfast each morning was delicious! The rooms were comfortable… more

“No Elevator and 70 Steps Up”

It was an unexpected chore to tote a heavy suitcase up to the 3rd floor. Thankfully my wife got some help both up and down. The hotel was clean and very traditionally decorated.

It was an unexpected chore to tote a heavy suitcase up to the 3rd floor. Thankfully my wife got some help both up and down. The hotel was clean and very traditionally decorated. The room was good size and contained a Q-sized bed. The bathroom was clean and had new fixtures. The location was a short walk to the Central Market and railway station. Breakfast was a regular Italian, with boiled egg, cheeses, cure meats and pastries. We wanted to take a taxi to the airport in the morning but had some issues. The breakfast lady/hotel clerk spoke no English. She called 2 taxi companies but communicated to me there were no taxis available. (there was going to be big protest that AM) I was somewhat concerned about getting to the airport on time by taking a bus. My wife, who speaks French, spoke to the woman who suggested to her that we take the tram. Goggle Maps hadn't suggested the tram - it opened in Feb 2019. It costs 1.5 euros each goes directly to the airport from across from the train station. It was a real time and money saver.
