Hotel Albani Firenze

Oct 2020 - During Covid Time -

Pleased with our stay at this hotel. Nicely located so getting around was very convenient.

The room was comfortable although the hot water could have been warmer for more comfort after a long day of walking around and enjoying the city 😀

Just a 5-minute walk from Firenze Santa Maria Novella station and close to the city’s main attractions, this hotel is ideally located. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and although the rooms are a bit old-fashioned, they are clean, cozy, and make you feel right at home. The beds are comfortable, and the bathroom amenities are convenient and practical. Overall, it’s a lovely place to stay in Florence. The only downside was the average breakfast.

We booked this off Priceline. The hotel is close to the train terminal and very quiet. Porter took our bags and showed us to our room in a beautiful annex. High quality furnishings and architecture. The web site doesn’t do it justice. Only stayed one night but would book for a return visit.

We had a family room (1 king + 2 singles) and it was wonderful. We were here when it was a heat wave 37C outside but the rooms were 20C very nice. Wonderful service. Amazing location. The buffet in the morning was top notch.

Really close proximity to the center of the city although that comes with a lot of people and noise as soon as you go out the door. The staff was friendly and listened to our requests. Some of the interior and main hotel could be made more modern/renovated but the rooms were well prepared, clean and looked stylish

The location was near the train station. Staff were very nice and helpful. And the room was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed to stay this hotel.

Pros: While we checking in there was someone carrying luggage for us to our room, there was a bottle of wine and two small bottle of water as complimentary for the first night.

Location is near to S.M. Novella Station and bus station so it's a perfect.

Breakfast was a 4 star standard and the taste more or less the same throughout my trips in 3 different hotels so no complain.

Cons: the shower pressure was really small and the heater inside the room was not working, after the first night experience we asked the front desk the next morning if they could check for us but ended up the shower pressure was really small, if there is a measurement lowest from 1 to highest 5, the pressure was definitely 1. So we aren't sure if they did send someone to check or not but one thing for sure they never update us after that and the heater switch remains the same as before I complained. It was really cold.

One evening around 7pm - 8pm as the hotel is actually located kinda like an alley and bit darker so a guy was suspiciously following us at our back and we have to almost run back to our hotel and while we ran he speed up as well so it's really scary better not to be alone walk back hotel.

Overall, location and breakfast are good. Service could be improved imo.

It's very nice to stay and hope to re-visit :)

The staff is so helpful n professional. The location is good, easy to assess from the Florence Santa Maria Novella station, to nice restaurants, to Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. As a whole, the inside of the hotel is beautiful.
