Hotel Renaissance

Wonderful stay at the Hotel Renaissance. We upgraded to the room with Turkish bath. It was 100% worth it. Very relaxing and amazing. The room was reasonable sized and pretty with faux frescos painted on the ceiling above the bed. The breakfast was the most limited we had in Italy, but tasty and quaint. The hotel location is awesome. Very walkable go everything. (Tip about Florence: the Duomo is not worth the wait to visit inside. Head to Santa Croce instead.) The only hits hiccup for us was that we were told we had to pay the local tax in cash when we checked out. We were at the end of our trip so had already spent all of the cash. At check out they pointed to a small sign hidden amongst the other things on the reception desk. This should have been told to us at check in, not check out. Also, the taxi fees to the airport are deceiving. The €24 does not include a fee for your luggage. Lol! Who goes to the airport without luggage. But that wasn’t the hotel’s fault. Overall a great stay. We were very pleased and would most definitely stay again.

Not s hotel at all. More like a bnb. And not a good one. Getting a taxi was bad news. Almost missed our flight

Excellent we always stay in here

Hotel smelled. There is a flight of stairs up to the elevator. Did not receive any help with the luggage for that flight of stairs.

This is one of the nicest hotels we’ve ever stayed and that’s in comparison to $500 /night chateaus. To add to it, it’s right in the heart of the historic city. The concierge carried our bags to our room and a valet shuttled our car away. The owner took us for a private paid walking tour in the morning. You can’t do better.
