Hotel Monna Lisa

This is an excellent boutique hotel with Italian charm. The hotel was very well maintained, English spoken everywhere, the beds are comfortable and the bathroom sufficiently large enough for us North Americans. The courtyard was fantastic. What a great spot to just chill. The courtyard was nicely light at night. The breakfast which was included in our fare was very good and you could sit outside in the courtyard or look out unto the courtyard. There was also some personal service during breakfast. As a tip, best that you take a taxi from the train station as it's too long a walk with luggage. The hotel is central so walking to all the sites are easy.

Stayed at the Monna Lisa for 4 nights and it was delightful. The staff were very welcoming whether at reception, in the restaurant, or at the bar. Our room, number 35, was excellent and all that we could have wished for. The hotel was in an excellent location for numerous restaurants and the many cultural highlights that Florence has to offer. We would definitely stay here again.

This hotel is a gem! Would stay here again in a heartbeat. The hotel has an authentic feel with so much history and THE BEST BREAKFAST EVER! Shout out to Ramith for making our breakfasts so enjoyable. The location, food, rooms, and staff are perfection.

I absolutely loved our time at Hotel Monna Lisa while visiting our son who is studying abroad in Florence. We actually broke up our stay at the hotel by staying 2 nights and then visited Lake Como for the weekend. We then returned back to the hotel for 2 more nights. I am so happy we did, it was like coming home after our stay in Lake Como. We had a triple room that was actually 2 levels with 2 bathrooms. It was perfect and extremely quiet. One of the reasons I selected this hotel was the garden area. I spent every afternoon relaxing in the garden after long days of sightseeing and walking! Breakfast was fantastic, and there was even turn down service each night which was a pleasant surprise. The front desk was so helpful both before and during our stay giving us restaurant recommendations, directions, and calling taxis, always with a smile. I absolutely loved the vibe of this hotel and all it's charm. Hotel Monna Lisa was exactly what I had hoped for while visiting Florence. I HIGHLY recommend.

This hotel was phenomenal. The staff helped me with a lot of requests and made my stay so much better. I would definitely recommend this hotel and stay there again. The hotel is centrally located to the center of all the places I wanted to visit.

Perfection. It's like the scene from the Wizard of Oz, where Dorothy enters the Land of Oz for the first time, except here you are exiting the cobblestone steps of Florence and entering a magical, colorful place with a fragrant garden where you can sip an expresso in the morning or a spritz in the afternoon, and adventures await you just outside the from door. The Hotel Monna Lisa has an amazing staff: Gabriel, Andreas, Laura, Erica, Francesco, Marco, Vincenzo . . . the list goes on. Unobtrusive turn down service while you're enjoying pasta or a bistecca Florentina on the town in the evening. A breakfast buffet that puts all others you've seen to shame. The superior room is spacious, the bathroom is perfect (water pressure and water temperature the acid test for me of all bathrooms) the linens and furnishings gorgeous. Location cannot be beat. You are 10-15 minutes FLAT walk to the Ufizzi, Galleria, Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, etc and minutes away from restaurants that cater to your every culinary and gastronomic desire. I know I like to try different places whenever I visit, and this was my first time in Florence, but I can't imagine staying anywhere else.
