Machiavelli Palace Hotel Florence

Séjour à Noel très agréable Attention juste à l'attribution de la chambre ; nous avions une chambre avec caisson climatisation pour le couloir et donc beaucoup de bruit Sinon tout était nickel

Hotel assez bruyant. Le décor économique ne cache pas l'obsolescence des installations. Mini bar vide, pas de journeaux le matin, sommier à lattes manquantes, matelas trés ferme, plus d'eau chaude dès 9h00... Tête de lit noire de saleté.... Point positif ??? L'emplacement. Petit déjeuner correct.

Très bonne situation par rapport à la gare et au centre ville. Le petit-déjeuner est bon et copieux. La literie est un peu inconfortable et la chambre sur la rue très bruyante. Le personnel est accueillant. Globalement, cela reste une bonne adresse.

Bien situé près de la gare et du centre historique, calme, mais absence de vue. Petit déjeuner offrant un choix satisfaisant et copieux.

Très bel hôtel idéalement placé à 2 pas du mercato centrale et du centre historique. Literie un peu dure, mais le cadre compense.Parking 20 € la journée, mais on gare gracieusement le véhicule.

R.A.S hôtel correspondant à sa catégorie

Deux seuls points noirs pour un hotel par ailleurs très bien : un lit beaucoup trop dur et des remontées d'odeur d'égouts dans la salle de bain.

Beautiful room, the shower was small, beds were very very comfortable. Staff was helpful almost tripping over each other to help us in anyone they could. The staff made one feel very welcome as soon as you walked in the door. Only a block away from the train and bus station. Only a block away from the best decorated McDonalds I have ever seen. Only, at the most, a 20 minute walk to all of the important sites in Firenze. Recommended to us and certainly recommended to our associates.

Overall, I should say that I had a good stay at this place. First of all, it is located about 3-5 minutes from Florence's train station. This was very convenient to me as I traveled between cities by train. So, arriving from Venice or leaving for Pisa the following day and Rome the day after (quite early in the morning) was not at all issue. I could easily walk from the station despite having 2 travel bags with wheels. However, such close proximity to the station and its location on a fairly busy street could be an issue at night sometimes, as you may hear a lot of noise from the street compromising on your sleep. It does get quieter later at night and remains so until early morning. The most important reason as to why I gave lesser points on amenities and room comfort is because the sound-proofing in the facility is poor. I could literally hear every word that was spoken in my neighbor's room (not that I intended it) and as they were awake after I had gone to bed, it was too much of a hindrance for me, as I could not go to sleep for quite some time. The second drawback is that there was a constant malodor prevailing in the bathroom despite the bathroom being clean. I am not sure if it was because of a common ventilator duct traversing the floors above and below. The shower area is quite small. I am an average person and for someone who is big, this could definitely be an issue. If you drop your soap, you could find it very difficult to pick it up from the floor. However, these were not major issues to me on the whole. My bed was comfortable. The room was clean. Mine had a balcony attached to it with a table and few chairs. I could sit on the balcony late in the evening and relax. This would be great if you traveled as a couple. There is a restaurant/pizzeria right across the street (Trattoria, I believe) with very affordable prices and does not charge for COVER (this is a common concept when you dine in Italy, more so in Venice). This could be convenient when you return in the evening tired from sight-seeing. Or you could order food for take-out and have it with your partner on the balcony! Staff was very friendly and helpful. They were always happy to provide useful suggestions and directions. My room was tidied every day and it could not have been kept better. The complimentary breakfast that they provide is extremely good. This came in handy as I was mostly seeing places. After a good breakfast, I could postpone my meal until early in the evening concentrating more on sight-seeing and worrying little about where or when I would eat next. If I needed, I could grab a quick bite and go on. For the price you pay for this hotel, I think this is definitely worth it. If I ever get back to Florence, I won't mind staying here again.

I needed a place close to my daughter's apartment so I choose this location whiich was perfect. I had a single and very typical small, small room. I am lucky I am not a typical larger american because the shower was exactly 24"x24". All and all a good value, good central location, morning breakfast was good. It was good, not great just good and that was all I was looking for.
