Lovely location in Florence, close to major sites and not too far from the train station. The free breakfast included whatever coffee you want and had a large variety for different styles and preferences of food. The tower of the hotel is really nice to visit at any time of day, with a great view of the city and valley. The bathroom was decadent with a double vanity, huge shower and double windows and bench.

My favorite was the fresh-made cappuccino every morning! Great variety of pastries, juices and breads. Cereal, yogurts, cheeses, meats, eggs provided a great variety! My only suggestion, fresh fruit would have been a nice touch instead of canned peaches. There was a bowl of fruit available but no bananas, melons or berries offered during our stay. Staff was friendly and attentive! We stayed in the Jr Suite which was spacious with a full and 1/2 bath. Perfect for families. Plenty of extra pillows and bedding for a chilly night. Sitting area was noisy due to street activity and vendor carts early in the morning. Bedroom was away from street and quiet. It’s an older building so don’t expect upgraded windows, insulation or fancy tiles/marble. It was clean and staff very friendly. Location was undeniable the best! Central to everything we wanted to see!

- Excellent location, located in the historical center of Florence, close to sights (Ponte Vecchio is 2 minutes away) and there’s a store right in front of the hotel which is very convenient - If you arrive by car, the hotel works with a garage close by that guarantees safe access to the ZTL restricted traffic area of the city, so you don’t get a fine. A driver comes and takes your car to the garage and you pay for parking when the car is returned. - The tower terrace is a nice perk that offers a beautiful 360 degree view over the city and it has a rooftop bar - The room was big, comfortable and clean and it didn’t face a main street, so it was very quiet. The stairs in front of our room led to another small terrace with tables and chairs and a nice view of the Dome and the Palazzo Vecchio. - The second sink in the room was helpful because it had extra counter space for your items and it was far enough from the bed - The air conditioning functioned properly and the elevator was helpful - Breakfast was delicious and fresh, with a good selection. We will definitely stay here again

We had two favorite things we loved about our stay. First, the location was exceptional, and we could walk to all the sites and shopping we wanted. Second, the breakfast each morning was exceptional! There was such a wonderful variety of both hot and cold foods, the pastries were amazing, and the cappcuccinos were delicious. The setting for the fabulous breakfast was beautiful, and the wait staff were very attentive and kind. Honestly, it's the best breakfast spread we had during our two week tour of Italy! Thank you!!

We loved everything about Hotel Torre Guelfa! We traveled as a family with a 5 year old and this hotel was perfect. The check in and check out process was easy and quick. The breakfast was amazing every morning. The staff was friendly and Vivian was so kind every morning. The location was better than we expected!! Everything was clean and great. The front desk is very helpful. They were able to assist in our taxi ride to the train station. My family highly recommends this place!

Location, location, location is the Key and it was great!!! The fact that it is very close to Ponte Vecchio and the Duomo added awesome features to the hotel. Also this Hotel has a Magnificent view of Florence especially at night. They have a tower that opens 24 hours a day with a bar. This make this hotel stands out. Its unique and charming. I would stay to this hotel again. Thanks to Rick Steves to recommend this hotel. The breakfast are wonderful. They have a lot of selections and more than enough for everyone. The Staff are so helpful and friendly. Vivian is so nice and love her scrambled eggs and Cappuccino.

Absolutely perfect location on a quiet side street right next to the Ponte Vecchio. Everything you wanted or needed to see was within a five minute walk. All of the staff were excellent. The breakfasts were over the top and the service was perfect. Don’t forget to go to the rooftop bar for one of the best views of surrounding old town Florence. Great bed, clean and a really nice bathroom and shower. Well ventilated and air conditioned

The hotel was centrally located which was super easy to visit the city with the family; 2 young kids (10 & 9). We only had to use a taxi to/from the train station to the hotel. Everything else was literally within walking distance. The room was very spacious for the 4 of us and the hotel was extremely nice. It is a historical landmark and the tower, which is easily accessible, provides fantastic views of the entire city.
