I have stayed at the David many times and loved the intimate atmosphere and wonderful hospitality. This was the first time since their renovation 5 years ago and I have to say they kept the best of the old charm and only made it better with the new layout and the addition of an elevator. On the Oltraarno, it makes it less noisy and gives a calming atmosphere in what can be an often crowded city with tourists. The evening gathering of patrons lets us meet our fellow guests over good wine and foulsom delicacies. An altogether wonderful way to experience Florence from an isle of calm.

Hotel David was excellent. Starting and ending with the staff - from the front desk to Marcella at the breakfast room, the staff were fantastic. Our Italian is not great, but they were understanding and spoke English well enough to accomplish all we needed. Breakfast was simple and effective with multiple protein options, fruit and pastries. Happy hour included a couple flatbreads that were quite good (and I have gluten allergies). The wines at happy hour I would describe as table wines. Our room was made up every day and impeccably clean and we looked closely. King bed and balcony were nice to haves and I wish we would have taken more advantage of there courtyard out front - traffic noise while outside, but plenty of trees and still nice. The staff also provided us with several dinner recommendations and all three were exceptional. The staff make the difference at Hotel David. Thanks much Hotel David team!

Hotel slightly our of the centre, with its own parking. Hotel room excellent - large with huge outdoor area. Breakfast was excellent. Great choice, indoor and outdoor tables. Three basic drinks for free per day. Happy hour each day, which was used by a lot of guests - quite a social event! Reasonably priced, for a hotel with a homely feel - we would return

This hotel is a gem located just far enough away from the crazy pace of the center city, yet not too far to be walkable. With a public transit stop right in front of the hotel, it is very easy to go to main attractions. Cleanliness and character are excellent. Quality of included breakfast and social hour were fantastic. Service was responsive and friendly. Highly recommend!

Hotel David was on of our favorite hotels during our recent trip to Italy. The property is charming, clean, and the hotel staff are wonderful! We enjoyed breakfast every morning out on the terrace as well as a wonderful complimentary happy hour. It was a bit of a walk to the main area in Florence, but we enjoy walking when we are traveling so this was not a downside for us, but just a heads up if you want to stay right in the action. We enjoyed the quieter feel of the neighborhood as well. Lovely stay and would highly recommend as well as return for another visit!

Everything was extraordinary at Hotel David. Staff helped with some logistical items before we even arrived. Breakfast and Happy Hour were amazing and the food offered at HH could replace dinner. Perhaps a little farther away from the Florence sights but with the bus system extremely manageable! 5 Star plus!!!

Great small hotel, staff very helpful nothing was too much trouble.

At the other end the stop is right outside the hotel
