Really hard work going up the stairs but that is normal for Florence. Same applies to parking and finding the hotel. That said the location can’t be beat and the staff were friendly and helpful. The location was awesome and the stay worked out well. Parking was difficult and expensive but welcome to Florence!

Staff and owner were super nice and made us feel like family. Hotel was super unique and gave us a true italian feel. Location was perfect. Lift starts up a few steps, so can be hard if carrying heavy luggage. This was our situation, but quickly staff and everything about this beautiful place, relieved our frustration. I want to go back!!

Andrea, at the front desk, couldn’t have been more cordial or helpful as was his staff. Monty too, couldn’t have been nicer. Very helpful with the luggage. The room was very clean. Breakfast had a great selection. You should take advantage of it. Lots of good places to eat nearby. Many attractions within walking distance. Stayed April 2-5.

Fantastic location and incredible service

Hotel Alessandra is a gem in downtown Florence, just blocks from the Ponte Vecchio. It's nothing like an American chain hotel, but that's part of the charm. Lots of stairs (like everywhere in Italy) - 2 flights to the main entrance. The front desk staff were so friendly and helpful, breakfast was lovely and varied, rooms were large and comfortable. Great water pressure and decent sized shower. Be sure to have a drink on the terrace overlooking the river. Would absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful property! Andrea the owner, will move heaven and earth to make your stay great! Only drawback is you have a flight of stairs to the elevator. Most of the buildings are 500 years old. Only a problem when carrying luggage. The staff is great! Enjoy your stay… We highly recommend them!
