The hotel location is close to the historic centre. We could easily walk to all the sights except the Accademia which is a bit further away. But everything else is a quick walk away - Duomo, Uffizi, Bargello, Arno river. This is a historic building so it comes with its own quirks, like no lift, a slightly cramped dining area. But these did not bother us at all. It is a bit far off from the Firenze Santa Maria Novella train station if that matters to you. One needs to take a mini bus to reach the nearest bus stop and then walk a bit through the narrow streets. So you would be better off travelling lightly and avoiding heavy luggage. The staff( owner perhaps?) was most helpful and welcoming. He gave good recommendations for dining options nearby. He helped me and my daughter to carry our suitcase up the staircase. He gave helpful tips and oriented us to the neighbourhood. Since we had enquired about kettle availability in the room prior to our arrival, he had arranged for a kettle too in our room. I also have to call out the fact that he even graciously made arrangements for an early breakfast for us one day as we had to leave very early for a day trip to Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa. No other hotel that we stayed at during our 2 weeks travel in Italy, Belgium and France had done this. I would highly recommend this hotel precisely for these 2 reasons - the excellent location and service.
