2/10 Poor

Avoid at all cost!
Booked a 2 night stay at this hotel. Before arriving, they communicate to utilize a parking garage as there’s driving restrictions in Florence and can’t access the hotel with a vehicle. When we booked the parking garage, they informed us they opened at 7:00 am and needed 1 hour to get the vehicle. This wouldn’t allow us enough time to drive to the airport to make our flight. When we reached out to the hotel (well within the cancellation period) they told us the owner wasn’t in until the morning. The issue was being pushed, hotels.com was also advocating for us due to the situation and the length of cancellation given but the owner refused to refund the second night. It was bad enough we were robbed of our money, but the icing on the cake was the construction- removing of ceramic tiles which was extremely noisy, our room was beside the front desk which you heard everything, and the bed was by far the worst I’ve seen in a hotel. Extremely hard, and rooms outdated as the wallpaper was peeling. The location is good, but there’s plenty more hotels in the area. We’re frequent travellers and this is by far the worst hotel we’ve ever stayed in. Hoping to save someone a terrible experience like we had. Avoid at all cost!

Terrific experience
The hotel was spectacular, several hundred years old restored to its glory. Our room had an uninstructed view of the river and surrounding areas. Monty at the reception made the visit even more enjoyable, the entire staff was amazing. Great breakfast terrific experience.

I would not stay here again. I booked a room with a Private Bathroom. And I got a private bathroom but my bathroom was not in my room. I was not eve connected to my room. It was on the other side of the hotel. So if you need the bathroom in the middle if the night, this is quite a problem. The mgmt insisted that “this is the room that you booked”. But I can assure you that when I booked a private bathroom in the past, I have never had to ask if the private bathroom was actually IN my room. This was ridiculous to me. The gents were very nice, but I would not stay here again and I would advise you not to also.

The hotel itself was clean and the room we stayed in was spacious. The shower was a little small and didn’t drain very well which was a bit annoying but not the worst thing. It was strange that when we would leave the hotel we needed to give the key to the reception desk and when we returned we had to wait for them to give us back the key. We felt we couldn’t really leave our more important things in the room. The elevator in the building was very old and doesn’t go down to the ground floor, only the second floor, so we had to carry our luggage one flight.

Amazing location right by a very happening square, walkable to all the sites. Super clean room and very quiet despite being right next to the square. Super friendly staff. Beds were great and breakfast was lovely.

The property is very clean, has a friendly staff, and is walkable to many destinations. You cannot access the property by car because many streets are closed off near the property. We had to park at a parking garage which charged 45 euro per night and then we had to walk about 5 minutes with our luggage to get to the hotel. Furthermore, the elevator was not accessible from the ground floor. We carried our bags up several flights of stairs just to reach the elevator, but it is so tiny that we all just kept climbing stairs. I suggest putting bags and 1 person in the elevator. The hotel amenities listed laundry facilities and laundry services; they only have services. In other words I rented the room so that I could wash my own laundry but they do not have facilities on site. Again, the hotel is clean, has friendly staff, and is walkable to many destinations.

The hotel staff was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The rooms were large and impeccably clean. The location is perfect. Everything is walkable from the hotel including the train station. If you are a runner and looking for great trails, run along the river away from the downtown, and in less than 2km will run through a park with dirt trails along the river.

The reception staff here are very friendly and hilarious. The hotel is located very closely to all the tourist areas, the bridge, the Academy Museum, the Uffizi gallery, and the cathedrals, etc. I enjoyed my stay. Stop by the Terrazza Rodo for a drink and delicious tiramisu!

Great location in Florence
This hotel is in a great location in Florence, not too far from the Santa Maria Novella train station and just a few blocks from the Ponte Vecchio. There are a lot of stairs (in case that is is an issue) to access the hotel which is inside of a locked building. There is a small lift part of the way which helps if you have a suitcase. We liked the location as we could walk everywhere. The hosts at the desk were very friendly. We did not do the breakfast with the additional charge but that is an option for those interested. Our room was very quiet at night so we were able to sleep well.

This hotel and the 4 men who work the front desk are absolutely WONDERFUL. My stay was perfect. The location is fantastic, it is on a very quiet street, there are not a lot of rooms so the hallways are quiet too, and all the shopping and dining you could ask for. The employees helped me with every single thing I needed, including calling a taxi, providing me a bandaid to cover a welt from all the walking I did, a map, etc. I can’t say enough good things about Hotel Alessandra. Thank you guys for a wonderful vacation! Hope to come back here at some point!

My husband and I stayed at the amazing Hotel Alessandra for 10 fantastic nights and cannot wait to return for another visit. The rooms in this unique historic building are beautifully appointed and the hotel is situated close to many key locations. Each member of the Hotel Alessandra staff treated us with warmth and grace. The owner, Andrea, made us feel like family. We love, love, love this hotel!
