Description:
The Albergotto is located in the heart of Florence, on the Via de Tornabuoni, at the corner of Via della Vigna Nuova. Its windows overlook these two elegant streets, as well as the marvellous Palazzo Strozzi. During the 19th century, tourists, both Italian and foreign began to flock in great numbers to Florence, attracted by the beauty of its art, by its pleasant climate and by the green hills that surround it. Via Tornabuoni was Florence's drawing-room, indeed the drawing-room of Europe. Many of the aristocratic palazzos that line the street were converted into hotels, cafès and tea rooms for the benefit of the visitors. The Albergotto continues the tradition of the 'casa albergo', dating from the days when it was appreciated and frequented by famous visitors such as Verdi, Donizzetti, Gounaud and George Eliot; to whom there is a plaque on the façade.

Very disapointing hotel. Couldn't understand why it is rated as a four star hotel. The furniture was old and not very clean, the room was small and had the smallest TV i ever seen in my life. Cleaners shouted in the corridors in the morning. This hotel is a correct 2 star , very bad relionship price/quality.

It is a wonderful cute hotel in a great location. Very central to everything including the best shopping in the area. The staff is amazingly friendly and helpful. It was our favorite place to stay and i would recommend it to everyone. We went for our 10th anniversary and put that in our comments when booking. The staff had a beautiful bottle of wine and a note waiting for us in the room. They gave us a wonderful room with an incredible view. It was so quiet with the windows closed and so very loud with them open. I would caution older people that there is a flight of stairs to enter the hotel. The porter handled the bags up it, but their is no elevator access to the ground floor. The breakfast in the mornings were very nice. Really I have nothing but compliments for this hotel.

This was my second time to Firenze and I will be visiting again and again. There is more to see in Firenze than can be accomplished in only a few visits. The Albergotto Hotel was very nice. The front desk personnel are well versed in English and other languages. They are very helpful and will go the extra mile to find out times and places of events. Make sure to specify that you would like a view of the street if you book online as we checked in for a 5-day stay and were put in a dark room with only a small high corner window and an alley view. I became clostrophobic immediately. In order to change rooms, it cost us an extra 200 Euros for the stay. We were offered to change rooms the next day for the same rate, however, chose to upgrade so that we could settle in and begin our visit. The breakfast is lovely, moderate, but if you have to have a protein based breakfast, you can find it here. We felt that although the room was large and clean, the cost was double the price of our fantastic hotel in Sorrento, and will possibly shop around the next time for a better value. The people and service were great and other than the inflated price, I would recommend staying here. The location is closer to the termini than the map suggests. Just go straight down past the Santa Maria Novella piazza and take a left on a side road to Tournabuone. Use google maps for walking directions.

Only drawback is the flight of stairs up to the lift, need to be quite fit. Otherwise excellent value and location for this time of year. Might be a bit busy and noisy in the summer. This was our 2nd stay and would stay here again in winter.

At breakfast you get an excellent cappuccino. We stayed in Firenze for 9 days. The location of the hotel is perfect. You are in the middle of everything.

I personally like this hotel because it was very clean, organized, elegant and close to everything including designer shops, toursit attractions, S.M.N. station, etc... Internet reception wasn't very good and breakfast could have more variety other than that all was great.

A pleasant hotel in a convenient neighbourhood. We were upgraded to a lovely spacious room with large bathroom, both spotlessly clean. The only downside was the night-time noise from the street below even though we were on the third floor. This seems to be a common problem in Florence. The staff were all friendly and helpful.
 
From: Rolando Necuze, USA
Date of Stay: October, 2007
Our Albergotto experience was wounderful. The staff could not have been more helpful, efficient and organized. The room (and bathroom) were roomy, clean and well equiped. Only minor complaint was that if you need the windows open (for ventilation or temperature adjustments) the noise can be bothersome. Also the stairs to the first level are mildly annoying after a long day of sight seeing, (we saw this at other hotels aroud town). Lugging luggage is not a problem as the bell staff is always there to help. Overall a great, friendly place in a great area of town that delivers what it advertises and we would not hesitate to stay there again.

We loved the location of this hotel which was smack in the middle of what we wanted out of a holiday which was shopping and sightseeing. This is the place to stay if you love shopping for designer goods. This hotel is really lovely but be prepared to walk up the flight of steps before reaching the reception area. People with bad knees and walking problems, this hotel is not for you!! Can you imagine lugging your baggage up all these steps? Apart from this, this is a lovely hotel and a plus point is wifi internet is FREE!!!!! Our room which overlooks Via Tournobuoni can be quite noisy especially early morning when you want to sleep late and get woken up by noisy traffic passing the street below. The hotel can do with sound proof windows. The hotel rooms are quite pricey but worth it.

We only stayed at the Albergotto for one night, however the staff was so friendly and helpful and they even gave us a free upgrade to our room. We had early reservations at the Academia the next morning and they let us eat breakfast earlier than the time it opened being 7:30. Very well located too - close to everything!Would definitely stay here again.

The staff is incredibly helpful, cheerful, and knowledgeable. The hotel is comfortable, in a great location and is most welcoming.
