Staff was very friendly and breakfast was great. Location was awesome with everything important in short walking distance.

They now do an online check in which was a little confusing because there was some conflicting information in what they sent out, but staff was there anyway when we checked in during the day which was smooth.

It took me 45 minutes to figure out how to get to the room, there was no remote for the air conditioner to another 45 to get air, the towels that were on the bed were still wet. When I turned on the air conditioner, the smell of mildew and mold, filled the room which caused my chest to close up. I inspected the air conditioner to find mold and mildew. I walked outside, called the property after being there just a few hours asked for a refund of the following two nights not for the day that I was there property completely refused. Traveler be warned.

If you are coming to this establishment with luggage do yourselves a favor and avoid at all cost!!!!! We arrived with luggages for a 5 night stay the building had no elevator and the place is on the highest floor. When I spoke to the host to see if there was any way someone could come down to help us she said at the moment nobody is there but she will let me know if she can have someone help us on the day of our checkout. She never got back to us, so a day before the check out I messaged her to see if she was able to get someone to help us out she replied back saying \"Unfortunately our guesthouse doesn't not have a porter service, we are deeply Sorry.\" I definitely wouldn't recommend this establishment to anyone. Terrible service!

The room was extremely dirty. Even after we requested cleaning the next day, they didn’t remove the hairs, and we had to take a picture and send it to show how bad it was.
There was no extra toilet paper, and when we called the staff, they said we had to wait until the next day to get one.
The heater didn’t work, and they told us they don’t turn it on until November.
Overall, very poor service and maintenance. Not recommended. I would never book here again.

This b&b is fantastic for the right people. To be clear, it is a fourth floor walk up with NO elevator. If this works for you, then the location is great. It’s walking distance to everything and yet not in a main square, so it is quiet at night. It takes some direction following to get in the first time, but everything was very well explained.

Of all the accommodations I have stayed at in my life, this one was the worst. I am by no means one to complain, but it was awful. The door to our hotel room was lodged when we returned for the night around 10pm. Nobody would answer our calls for hours, there was nobody around, and the building had no cell service. We ended up stranded with nowhere to go, our bags were stuck in the room, and we had to find a hotel for the night. When we tried to inquire with the staff the next morning, they shrugged and said they wouldn’t help or refund us.

Door issue aside, our room had no windows and was a major fire / safety hazard. It was also incredibly dirty.

Overall 0/10. Would not recommend.

The room was good for being in an old building in old city, as long as you can actually get inside. We knew this property was not manned 24 hours. They give you an emergency number for off hours. THE STAFF DOES NOT PICK UP WHEN YOU CALL IN AN EMERGENCY SUCH AS BEING LOCKED OUT OF THE BUILDING. I had to climb over the front gate (aprx 9-10 feet tall) when the key fob stopped working and they wouldn’t answer despite calling every number they gave us for aprx. 3 hours. The staff member that was supposed to be monitoring the emergency number responsed the next day by telling me “I was sleeping”. I would NOT recommend this property.

If you want to stay in a Rococo residence in the heart of historic Florence (5 min from the Duomo and from San Lorenzo and Cappelle Medicee), in a spacious room, with delicate allegories painted on its ceiling and with a charming view over back gardens, courtyards and hills - this is a perfect choice. Shoutout to Daniele and Adriana, perfect hosts going to great lengths to make travelers feel at home. It is important to note, however, that the B&B is located on the third floor and there is no elevator. There is also not a permanent receptionist but arrangements are made so one is not needed at all times. Quiet. Gated building.

The property is very close to the main cathedral, downside is it is on the third floor and hard to access as there is no elevator so be mindful of this if you have heavy luggage, there are probably 300 steps. My room was not very functional, no hot water the first day and no water the last day. I had to contact the reception several times to fix the water or wifi. The wifi was never fixed. The staff also was really hard to communicate with as they speak little or no English. Also if you expect to get any Expedia gold perks you will be disappointed. I asked for my 12 EUR food credit on arrival and they initially said I would not pay city tax to compensate for this but that was not the case as they ended up charging this at the end. The table lamp of my room was broken and the air conditioning makes a loud noice all the time. The bed is uncomfortable. So in general it’s really hard to sleep like this. I bring up these issues at the end of my stay (to someone over the phone because the receptionist doesn’t speak English) and they did not offer apologies nor compensation.

Very good stay at Quattro Poetti. Very clean rooms with great decor including a fresco in the breakfast room. (Seems everyone in Florence is a painter)
Stayed for 3 nights and no issues at all, no noise from the street and very comfortable beds.
Breakfast was plentiful and replenished whatever time you arrived.
Would recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in the centre of Florence.
There is quite a few stairs to climb, which the hotel informs everyone about, as long as you don’t mind that it’s a great place!!

We liked the location and the helpful staff. The breakfast was more varied than during our last stay. Despite it's location in the centre, it was very quiet and peaceful. What we were not keen on was the quality of the room. It was quite small and very basic in terms of decoration and furniture. The bedside tables were so small that we could hardly put anything on them and had to have books etc on the floor. The quality of the room was a distinct contrast to the one we had stayed in during a previous visit. We also didn't like the fact that it had an external bathroom. This admittedly was my fault as I did not realise that i was booking such a room. The external bathroom was very narrow and not comfortable to use.

We highly recommend paying for the hotel breakfast - we only did the last day and wish we had the whole stay. The only negative is the walls are pretty thin - we could hear every door opening and closing and full conversations from the room next door.

Hotel was in lovely Florentine style and we had a very nice traditionally decorated room with view towards the mountains and a 12th century ceiling painting. Was very quiet and we had a good night's sleep. Breakfast was lovely; a mix of hot and cold food. Location is fabulous, just five minute's walk to the Duomo and easy to access sights in the opposite direction just as San Marco and only about 20 mins' walk to main train station for day trips.
