The Place is now my favorite hotel in Europe! The staff could not have been more kind, attentive and helpful. When our flight was cancelled, they arranged for a hotel in another city, train tickets and transportation. The dining room is exceptional, breakfast was delicious and the rooms charming. But it is the outstanding staff that makes this hotel so exceptional!

I recently had the pleasure of staying for just one night at Hotel Place Firenze, and even in such a short visit, the experience left a lasting impression. The hotel itself is beautifully appointed, combining modern elegance with the timeless charm of Florence. Its location makes it ideal for exploring the city, yet it also feels like a serene retreat once you step inside. What truly set my stay apart, however, was the warm and genuine hospitality. I would like to especially recognize Michel Cannarozzo, the Front Office Manager, whose professionalism and kindness elevated the entire experience. From the moment of arrival, Michel made me feel not only welcomed but truly cared for. His attentiveness, thoughtful recommendations, and effortless ability to anticipate a guest’s needs reflect the very best of Italian hospitality. Though my stay was brief, it was memorable in every way. I would gladly return to Hotel Place Firenze, both for its beauty and comfort, and above all for the exceptional team led by Michel, who makes guests feel like family.

Paid nearly $2000 for a one night stay and the property did not reflect the price tag. On the morning of our departure, while breakfast started at 7:30am and we came down after 8am, it appeared that no one was even ready to start their work day until well after. After being seated, waited at least 10-15mins before anyone came to offer a menu. Coffee was terrible, breakfast marginal at best. Not a 5 star level experience by any means.

Not only is The Place Firenze a beautiful home away from home, but the level of care they provide is without rival. Lorenzo in particular went out of his way to help us with issues ranging from COVID testing issues to booking fantastic restaurants. Carmen was helpful and warm as well, as were the restaurant staff who made us feel welcome and in a home away from home. Fantastic food and ambience at both the hotel and the restaurant as well. This was not our first stay at The Place Firenze and will certainly not be our last. Ann and Bill
