The hotel is small but very nice. It is clean and quiet. The rooms are not new but are well maintained. The operating lady is very nice and helpful. Breakfast is simple: bread, croissants, jam and honey, yogurt, cookies, coffee, tea, orange juice and more. There are no eggs and no vegetables, but it was diverted enough for us. The hotel is well located- around 10 minutes of walking from the center train station, and less then 10 minutes to galleria dell’accademia. (Note that in these hot days we preferred taking the tram when arriving from the train station , which reduced the walking time with our suitcases). We enjoyed our stay very much!

Lovely apartment in a quiet and convenient location. It was about a 15 minute walk from the Duomo and Uffizi, less to the Galleria dell Academia. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Parking garage was just a couple of blocks from the building. All in all, we had a lovely time and Moraq was lovely to deal with. Heads up—if you’re staying in the queen apartment, it’s on the top floor and there is no elevator.

The apartment is close to the train station, but it's on the third floor and there is no elevator. The place was clean, the staff eliminate the garbage daily. The place has a kitchen, but it doesn´t have basic tools for any kitchen. There was no keetle or teapot where to boil water, the host knew about this and she did nothing to solve the issue, also there is no cutlery for all of us even when the reservation was for 4 people.

Gem of a spot

Fantastic location for a trip to Florence. We stayed in a 2 bed apartment, which was spacious for our family of 4. It is on the top floor, which didn't affect us in terms of access, but there are many steps! A/C only in hall, which didn't really extend to bedrooms - in the intense summer heat this did impact comfort. Fans are provided and were well used! The owner was incredibly helpful, recommending places to visit and eat, also allowing us to store luggage before check in and after check out.

Very nice, easy going and accommodating host, on site all the time, ready to help if you need it. Nice simple Italian breakfast served in the morning. If it's busy you might need to wait your turn.
About 15 min walk to the main basilica and the tower. About 10 min walk to the train station.
It's an old palace and so the facilities are in tune with the old style Florence, so do not expect modern hotel-like interiors. You can borrow books and games as well.
We liked it very much and would recommend it, no doubt.

Excellent place to stay in Florence.

This was a lovely bed and breakfast and a great place to stay. Room was clean, spacious and serviced every day. Breakfast in the morning was basic, but more than enough. The owner is extremely helpful with ideas of places to visit, buses and hints and tips for the city. The accommodation was 10 mins walk from the station and about 15 mins walk from the historical centre. The only slight downside was being next to the breakfast area my room could be a bit noisy first thing in the morning, but that's mostly on me for not getting up earl enough! I will definitely stay here again when I return to Florence.

Bait and Switch?

I called this B&B a day before arrival and was told all was ready; we had two rooms for two nights. On arrival we were advised that they had \"overbooked, but hey! It's all good, because I have you another place very near by, where my father stays when he comes to visit me!\" This was a hotel rather than a B&B, and it was totally unacceptable if for no other reason than the room temperature. While our room was marginally acceptable, the other was an oven, and we ended up with that couple on the floor in our room with us. When we called the desk they did nothing but say they would deal with it the next day. About that time I started to wonder what the hotel cost, as opposed to the B&B and found out it was substantially cheaper. Then I wondered why anybody with a B&B would send their father elsewhere to stay. Also, the location of the hotel was further from the places we wanted to visit, and at the edge of a residential area, so there were no really convenient restaurants or taverns. To go anywhere you had to cross a major street with traffic & trains to dodge. After one night I could not deal with the hotel another so I booked a new hotel and spent even more money to be able to sleep the second night. I ended up paying for 4 room-nights to get two in a lesser place. I honestly feel that the original B&B owes me money and I would like to hear from anybody else who had a similar experience. It felt like a pure bait-and-switch and it offended and angered me.

Good Value in Florence!

Really nice B&B located just a 5-10 minute walk from Train Station. Room was very nicely decorated and clean. Really nice dining area, which opened into a courtyard where you could eat as well (as long as it's not mosquito season). Hostess was very informative and accommodating, but a bit condescending. Breakfast consisted of a warm croissant, sometimes a yogurt, pre-packaged bread/biscuits, coffee and juice. Not exactly what I had expected from a place calling itself a Bed & Breakfast, but the atmosphere was nice. Wi-fi did not work in my room, so I had to sit in the hallway or breakfast area to get service. Make sure you are not allergic to cats or have problems with pet hair as my clothing was full of cat hair from sitting in the hallway seats. It was very close to the historic areas of Florence and made for a nice home base from which to view the city. Lots of common areas in the B&B as well.

Lots of stairs and no air conditioning!

The hotels is located near the train station in Florence and has great wifi. That is about the only good things. What no review tells you is that you have to climb all the way up the building with your luggag!. There are 76 steps, which we counted as a joke after returning from a day trip where we climbed the Tower of Pisa (which by the way has 251 steps, to give you an idea). There is also only a small AC in the hallway of the apartment. That air doesn't reach absolutely any of the bedrooms! It was 97F during our stay and We were so hot that I ended up sleeping on the floor in the hallway one night because I was sweating profusely. Also the pictures do not look like the apartment at all! The only thing I can think of is that we were put in another apartment all together and that the owner put up her apartments pictures since her and her family live there. I honestly do not understand how this hotel is rated so highly.

A Recommended Bed & Breakfast in Old Town Florence

Our stay at Casa Barbano was pleasant, comfortable, and overall enjoyable. The hostess was wonderful, responsive to our queries/needs, and friendly! We did not have any major issues overall.

Good place to stay when visiting Florence.

Very nice & helpful owner. Quiet location with easy access to main sites of Florence. Basic but adequate breakfast. Accommodation clean & tidy. Lots of stairs to get to some rooms so if mobility issues check room allocated.

Cultural break

Pleasant, friendly owner who gave us lots of local information and sorted out bookings. Characterful property within easy walking distance of town centre, station and restaurants.

A bed and breakfast worth you time in Firenze

The building dates from 1838, young by the standards of Firenze. If you sleep a bit late and hear a baby's cry, do not mind, it is the child of the cleaning lady. The rooms and service is very well done.
The breakfast is simple: coffee, orange juice, yoghurt, hard roll, either brioche or croissant, and coffee - delightful Italian coffee!
The property is a 10 Euro taxi from the train station, just 7 blocks. It is but 5 blocks from the mercato. There several pizzerias, bars, restaurants within a few blocks.
The location is quiet with little Street traffic.
Would we stay again? In minute!

BB@B in F

Casa di Barbano is located a mile from the RR station and another mile from the Florence Historic Center; it's relatively easy to find. The area seems safe &quiet. A lady speaking good English appears to run everything, except cleaning; she owns the place.

Small b&b that needs some TLC

Our room was a bit disappointing, but the building is well located.

Handy for station & San Marco

This B&B is very reasonably priced and located in a quiet area handy for many sights.However breakfast was very basic, bakery products & jam -nothing savoury -although coffee was good. Also furniture was a bit worn and bed very squeaky, bedroom was large (high ceilings) also making it hard to heat.

Stayed here with family in two rooms for two nights and enjoyed our stay very much. Rooms were clean and nicely decorated. Easy walking distance to the train station and not far from the historical sites. Our hostess was exceptional and would definitely stay there again.

great little place

Well located and quiet. Just a bit hard to find. you need to read the brass plaque beside the door as there is no big hotel sign.
