Very most special historic place. Other than wardrobe door falling off and getting military police called for yelling when it angered me for I was exhausted hoping to shower and go to bed. I for a moment mistakenly thought it was OK to let off some steam for a moment since other guests my first two nights woke me up many times talking very loudly at 2am, 3am, and 4am with no regard for quiet hours nor the sleep of other guests. I was charged 100 Euros for the wardrobe door falling off upon check out which I felt was unfair for the employee the day before I had spoke with about it said everything would be fine and not to worry about it. I wasn't the only guest who also experienced paranormal phenomenon in this most historic facinating building nearly 500 years old for on my 3rd night when coming out of shower at about 2am, a young women stepped out of her room crying that she'd seen a ghost. I told her it's OK we're just human I cry sometimes too. My stay would had been perfect had I not had a trouble with the wardrobe door falling off sending me into anger and anxiety. It was so horrible having military police at my door dressing me down and then having to pay 100 Euros while put in great fear which was beyond wrong and bad. If you're interesting in Machiavelli, Medici's, and historical Florentine, then a stay in Bavaria hotel will be perfect for it was beyond fascinating to be honest.
Unfortunate the expedia site doesn't allow me to upload photo of place saying they are invalid. Tech glitch.

Such a cute hotel. Literally in the middle of EVERYTHING. You can walk out, make a right and the Milkeria is right there which was one of our favorite spots for espresso and crepes. The shower got hot and cold a few times but it was fine. The only thing I wish the coffee machine to be available for longer hours. It’s only available from 8-11 It is a shared bathroom which wasn’t really an issue but it was always clean. Definitely would come back again. It’s nothing fancy. Definitely old fashioned but the location is great. Staff is friendly too

We traveled as a family with our 2 teenage boys during Christmas. The location was great, just 2 mins from Duomo and right in the heart of many shops and restaurants. The checkin was smooth and great communication through whatsapp. We booked the quadruple room and it was quite spacious with a queenbed and 2 twin beds. The building is a 16th century building and it felt great to see the character in the room with 20ft ceilings, old paintings etc. there is no elevator which was not a big issue for us even with luggage but something to think about. The room cleaning was done everyday, wifi was super fast. There is also no ironbox but you can get one from reception on request. There are many pastry and gelato shops within quick walking distance and several great places for lunch and dinner. The bathroom was new and renovated and was modern however rooms maintain their old 16th century charm - they are however clean and comfy and we had no issues. All in all, a great stay.

my parents had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Florence, just steps away from the Duomo — the location couldn’t be better! The rooms are surprisingly spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready with a smile. And the cappuccino at breakfast was absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Firenze.

Two negative points were the amount of stairs, hotel situated on 3rd floor with no lift and the bathroom was shared. However, the building is 500 yrs old and interior is beautiful. Staff very friendly and informative. As a solo female traveler I wanted to be in the city centre so the negatives were a trade off for safety and proximity to the city. I would defiantly stay again but maybe bring a smaller case :)

Nice hotel, with a few small drawbacks

Lovely hotel, in a good location. Only one bathroom on the floor i was on which made things awkward at times. There was often a loud noise from a boiler or something that was one room away from mine that woke me up during the night several times, but otherwise a good experience.

At the heart of Florence, this hotel is less than a 15-minute walk from all the major museums. It's close to shops, dining, and the Piazza della Signoria, as well as the Duomo. The hotel itself is clean and friendly looking. We had a large room with shower (no toilet) for 4 people, which worked well. The temperature each day there was about 93F/34C, so we took multiple cool showers each day. However, there were three beds (a double and two singles) for the four of us, and only two fans (no a/c). When I asked about another fan, the afternoon staff attendant said that they didn't have any more. Given summer temperatures and no a/c, they should have extra fans. Also, when I told him how hot one of our fans got on the first night, he got very defensive and insisted that no one had ever complained about that before (as if it were our fault). There was a nice coffee area with a good coffee machine (cappuccino, espresso, hot chocolate, etc.) that was free and self-service in the morning. There was also a nice pitcher of a refreshing infusion (lemon grass, I think) that was good. We took advantage of both of these things.

The location was the only redeeming part of this hotel. Our room has no air conditioning and the manager was unwilling to do anything about it. We took a reading one evening and it was 101.8F in our room. We decided to sit a bit in their reception area because they had a small AC unit there. While we were there the manager turned it off because he wanted to “save energy” whilst sitting in his office with an AC blasting. Don’t stay here.

I never forget this trip!

I was in Florence for a week studying. and I had to find a place that was both comfortable and affordable. I was a little nervous about the shared bathroom situation. but there was two on my floor and it wasn't an issue at all really. the people who work here were always friendly and helpful. I really have no issues. I had an awesome stay.

I loved my bedroom and their bathrooms!!! Thank you Vincenzo for your warm and friendly welcoming. He made sure I was ok at all times. You have coffee and tea in the kitchen area.
