Hotel Corona d’Italia

rooms are very small not situated perfect........

Stayed at the Hotel Corona d'Italia as a result of a change of plan. So just booked it based upon the reviews I could find. I was not disappointed. It is a very nice hotel situated in a busy street in Florence. One significant plus is the car parking arrangement - they have a deal with a garage opposite - they park the car and return it when you want. Of course there is a charge but parking in Florence is a nightmare! The room was clean and very comfortable. Of particular note was the breakfast. Despite the fact that the hotel was very busy, the breakfast was excellent, good choice and nothing (including a cafe latte) was too much trouble for the staff. The location is also very good, many restaurants nearby in walking distance. An enjoyable stay - would certainly stay there again when in Florence.

This hotel has a great central location to Florence attractions, and is a short walk from the train station. OVS and the Pam convenience store are close by too. Check-in was not friendly. I expected a bathtub, as indicated with my reservation, and instead had a tiny shower. When I mentioned this to the front desk, a slightly friendlier front desk man told me they were out of those rooms, but I was "welcome to extend my stay" to get a room with a bathtub. The room was comfortable, but much smaller than expected. This stay included breakfast and wifi, which were fine. Overall, everything was fine. I chose this hotel over many options in Florence, and I was a little disappointed not to get what I was expecting.

The quadruple family room resemblance on the website was far from accurate. The sofa bed was broken to start with. The central temperature control system would not go below 24 degrees and had to keep opening and closing the window through the night. No way to shut the towel radiator also, which added further to the overall room temperature. Breakfast was good. Had to pay the city tax separate in cash and would not take payment on card. Not the most ideal situation for international tourist with limited cash on hand.

Great place to stay, close to all the attraction, service pretty good Only thing I would like to have a coffee maker in the room Breakfast area great, staff very helpful
