Hotel Paris

Stayed here twice. Charming, historic hotel in the heart of Florence. Easy walk to all the main attractions. Fabulous staff. Beautiful interior design with amazing views. Very nice, affordable breakfast. Would highly recommend!

Location is just superb! 5 minutes walk to the Cathedral and 10 minutes walk to Uffizi.
The rooms would benefit from renovation but the hotel itself has a history and a nice soul, and the staff conveys a caring atmosphere.
As a radical night owl, I absolutely loved it that tea, coffee, and tasty biscuits were available in the breakfast hall 24/7 for self-service.
And if all people in the service industry were like Signor Massimo at the reception, this world would have been a much nicer place 😊

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. The best thing about this hotel is its proximity to the main attractions in Florence. Second best thing about this hotel is it's history. Look it up. It's an old palace that was converted into a commercial hotel.

The service was also very good. They allowed us to leave our luggage both before and after checkout times in their luggage room for free, which was very helpful for us as we were traveling with small kids and we didn't have to haul our luggage as we went for sightseeing. They also have elevators, so you don't have to drag luggage up and down the stairs.

Now the bad part- which is another aspect of the good part (its proximity to main attractions)- the rooms have old style windows that doesn't block any outside noise at all. Maybe this is how it's with all the old buildings but we had a hard time sleeping through the night. They also have construction going on currently (as of April 2025). I don't know if it was that but on our first night we heard a loud noise like a giant motor from around 5-7am! Noise from the streets is also very disturbing for a good night's sleep. But again, its probably due to the old building and it's location.

Again, no complaints on the service. Their team was very helpful with all of our requests. This review is for prospective guests so that they know what are the pros and cons of the property.

the staff is very friendly
near to the duomo
very good location
near to the train station

Hotel Paris is a gem in the heart of Florence. Housed in two historic palaces combined into one, it offers a unique atmosphere that transports you back 700 years. The building is rich in character, and the 8EU (Adult) breakfast was a lovely daily treat.

The location couldn’t be better—just steps from the Duomo and within walking distance of so many iconic sights. You’re truly at the center of it all.

A special shoutout to the front desk team: Gianni, Vittoria, and Massimo. They were absolutely superb—welcoming us warmly, greeting us each time we returned, and making our stay feel personal and memorable. Their hospitality stood out and made a big difference for my family and me.

Highly recommended for those looking to soak in Florence’s history while enjoying genuine service and a fantastic location.

It's close to the station and the view from the room was amazing!
The room was quite spacious and had a separate bathroom and shower room, as well as two toilets, which was very helpful! The furniture in the room was stylish and I was very satisfied.
I was also happy that they opened the breakfast area where we could eat free coffee and snacks, and I was able to enjoy cappuccino and cocoa. The pistachio croissants at breakfast were delicious and I was very satisfied.

The front desk staff were also very polite and helpful.
It was a wonderful trip.

Second time staying at this marvelous hotel with a large group. The staff is so attentive and really goes above and beyond to make sure your needs are met. From big (packing up breakfast boxes for us all for early morning departures) to small (loaning some packing tape so I could try to get a suitcase through one more flight) they do it all. The front desk staff was always SO kind and helpful to us, and really made our stay a comfortable one. The location is superb--a few blocks from the Duomo, and the hotel itself is like staying in a museum with perfect amenities. Hope to return soon! Highly recommend.

Their communication skills are excellent from the time you made a reservation, reminder emails about upcoming trips & if you have concerns/questions etc, they promptly respond to your email in less than 24 hrs.
Breakfast & snack rooms are nice. Front desk staffs & breakfast crews are friendly & courteous. Being in the middle of the city, sometimes can be noisy at night time; windows won't block the noise. It didn't bother us but woke us up before went back to sleep.

Conveniently located with super friendly and helpful staff. The room was a bit outdated, but it had all the essentials for a comfortable stay. I also appreciated the free coffee/drinks and snacks in the breakfast room!
