Date of Stay: January, 2007
The Bigallo is an excellent facility in the heart of Florence. It is literally a stones throw to the Duomo and is on a main pedestrian shopping street. The hotel is on the third floor of a charming building and a lift is provided. The rooms were exceptionally large considering its location and were spotless. As with most hotel accommodations in Italy, the breakfast was just mediocre. We would highly recommend this property to anyone travelling to Florence.

When we arrived we had to wait outside our Hotel only to find out it was closed. We were moved to another around the corner - we never stayed in our reserved Hotel. We were initially given a tiny cramped room - but were moved the next day upon request.

This hotel is definitely well located, the Duomo is right outside the front door. However, our room was very noisy at night and it was facing the alley. We can only imagine how noisy the rooms are that face the square. This isn't a bad hotel for the price, but certainly not the best we stayed in during our trip (for similar price).

clean and nice, spacious 1 bedroom apartment, centrally located, but tricky to find due to strange system of building numbers in Venice. Toilett bowl was not secure to the floor and needs repair. we arrived very late and charge person was available to bring us the keys ( after midnight ) you just need to find a phone to call them upon arrival... altogether, it was a good experience. It was not an hotel so some questions were irrelevant for this location.

Best room we had on our trip through Italy. The view of the Duomo from our room was amazing. Request the Donatello room. The room was huge compared to rooms in Europe. The size of the room reminded me of a US hotel room. I would recommend this hotel to anyone travelling to Florence. Centrally located and very clean.

When we arrived at Hotel Bigallo it was closed. We were taken to Bigallo's sister hotel, Hotel De'Lanzi. At first we were a little concerned as nobody explained where we were going. However the hotel was clean and in a superb location for central Florence. The room was slightly on the narrow side but our view was onto the Duomo tower. No complaints from us at this price!

Excellent. Steps from the Duomo, walking distance to the train station. You have to take the lift up to the hotel, but once there everyting is beautiful. The most expensive hotel we stayed at in Italy, but worth it.

From: Sung Ho

The location of the hotel is very central, being in a corner building, which forms part of the Piazza del Duomo. The hotel is situated on the third floor of the building, accessed by a small elevator or the stairs (European third floor, meaning third floor above the ground floor) My room had a pleasant view of the 'backyard', looking towards the inside of the city block, where pleasant domestic (real) lives of the inhabitants can sometimes be heard. The room was clean and well outfitted with functional, yet tasteful furniture, including a firm, supportive mattress and a modernized bathroom. The bed cover was even fitted and coordinated with the curtains! (I don't recall such detail in other hotels of this classification.) The nicely furnished public sitting room, by the reception desk, has a superb view of the Duomo and the Via dei Calzaiuoli below, but the breakfast, a continental fare with the addition of cold-cut meats and cheese, is served in a view-less inner area, adjacent to the reception. (Understandably, the rentable hotel rooms are situated along the 'front', cutting off the breakfast room from the spectacular view. A window with a view to the 'backyard' would have made the breakfast room immensely more pleasant by giving it visual relief, as well as more natural light.) Having said that, the main reason to be in Florence, of course, is not to linger over breakfast in your hotel, but to experience the City. For that purpose, the hotel's location is perfect for urban tourists, who'd like a well outfitted place to stay at, which is centrally located. Highly recommended.

The location is almost surely the best in Firenze--literally at the edge of the piazza Duomo. The bell tower was directly across from our window. When the Duomo bells rang I was concerned about sleeping but they do not sound during the night.
 
From: Whitby Rosanne
Date of Stay: April, 2006
The hotel is in a great location-we had a spectacular view of the Duomo.It's about a 10 minute walk to the train station. We had a large triple room, with a loft. The room was updated, new bathroom, very clean. We were also asked if we could pay cash since we were quoted such a low rate (130.00 euros), but it wasn't a problem when we checked out and paid by credit card. The only noisy night was a Saturday night. The bells ring at 7AM...it was a great wake-up call. The breakfast wasn't very good-the coffee was horrible, some croissants,cereal, yogurt, fruit that wasn't that fresh. There is a small elevator to take you up to the 3rd floor to check-in. You cannot beat the location and the rate. I would definely return.
 
From: Sussman Alexander

Being so close to the centre was great. The bell at 7 every morning was a fab wake up call. Hated the boring breakfast and the coffee was undrinkable.
 
From: Hanrahan Janet
Date of Stay: April, 2006
When we arrived at the hotel the door was locked. We rang the bell and someone told us to wait. several minutes later a man came and lead us to another hotel since the Bigallo was closed. The replacement hotel was clean however small for 3 people.

Location- The hotel is in an excellent location by the Duomo and so close to other attractions/areas of the city. It was great to be able to walk to what we wanted to do. Accomodations - The room we stayed in was very spacious and clean and had a great view of Florence. Also, the bathroom was HUGE and had great facilities. The only draw back of this hotel is that they insisted on a cash payment for the stay when we checked out. We could not pay cash and they eventually accepted a credit card. I am not sure why they have this policy, especially since you are reserving the room(s) online with a credit card. Besides the payment issue, the stay was great and I would recommend their hotel for future visitors to Florence.
 
From: Will Hannah
Date of Stay: November, 2005
The location is unbeatable. The rooms were lovely and even spacious by European standards. Be aware of your promixity to the bell tower - it rings for several mnutes every morning at 7am. Anna, the afternoon receptionist, was very helpful. My only negative comment would be that just as we were checking in, we were asked if we could pay in cash as we had been quoted such a low rate through Venere. We ended up paying by credit card which they begrudgingly accepted.
 
From: Forsberg Holly
Date of Stay: November, 2005
First of all: go to the top floor for check in! That might help if added to the sign. We had no problems finding the hotel, just the front desk. Anna was very helpful with directions by email and directions and ideas for dinner once we got there. The room was bigger than I expected, nice clean bathroom. Breakfast was fine to get you going. And the location was amazing! I would highly recommend this hotel.
