Hotel Rapallo is a little gem! The hotel is beautiful and the staff is amazing! From the moment we arrived, we knew that our stay would be great! We were warmly welcomed by the staff and Lorenzo each time we returned to the hotel. The complimentary delicious breakfast is served in an elegant room, where snacks are also served throughout the day. Our room was spacious and immaculate! This was our first stay at the Hotel Rapallo and it will be our first choice in Firenze! Grazie Mille!

This is a fabulous little boutique hotel in walking distance of all attractions in Florence. This is one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in. It has recently been renovated to a very high standard. Room was very comfortable and the staff were all so helpful. There is complementary afternoon tea/coffee with cakes, pastries and sandwiches in the bar from 5 until 7 every night with I thought was a lovely treat after a day of sight seeing. I would highly recommend this hotel and would give it 5 stars. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Florence :))

Very lovely hotel. Situated about 15 minutes away from the main centre of Florence, a very nice walk and takes you away from the bustle at the end of the day. The hotel is immaculately decorated and very clean. The staff were all so friendly and helpful, and the owner also is very hands on and ensures everything runs smoothly. The little bar is intimate, they serve afternoon tea between 5 and 730 which was a lovely addition. Breakfast is great, and caters for all. I would definitely stay again.

Convenient, clean and welcoming

We stayed six nights, two rooms with terraces on 4th floor; extremely convenient locale, clean and modern rooms; spacious, comfortable terrace to chill out on; excellent breakfasts with much to choose from and made to order. Afternoon tea/coffee and cakes a fantastic way to recharge and relax pre evenings. Bryan at the front desk was happy and welcoming at all times; Praise was excellent: he wore several hats there and took care of us every day so well with a smile; the morning breakfast maitre de and ladies were extra sweet and gracious. Would absolutely stay here again. Thank you, Hotel Rapallo!

I loved it here

I loved this place I had stayed at another hotel for 3 nights it was advertised as 3 stars but wasn’t. I came here and was greatly warmly and able to check in early. The room 403 was clean , bright and comfortable. It also has a terrace. Bathroom products are provided. Breakfast was included again staff were polite and attentive. It rained heavily two days there’s umbrellas to use. My tea and coffee were replenished daily. The bed was comfortable. The only thing is I noticed local young drug dealers nearby day and night I had no issues but it’s winter so it gets dark by 4pm.
