Hotels Near Pegna in Florence

This was the best hotel in Florence for us. Location is perfect, steps from the cathedral and the Piazza Vecchio. All of the staff were incredible, I remember Diego, Nino and Andrea helped us with every question we encountered. We were in room 319. A spartan, but immaculately clean room overlooking the outdoor restaurant below. The bed was comfortable. Lots of pillows. Hot water, big tub and shower. A few tips… Ask for a fan when you check in. Italian air conditioning doesn’t compare with Oklahoma a/c. If they don’t have a fan, walk out the lobby, turn right and go about 200 meters and find a hardware store selling, you guessed it, big strong electric fans! About 30 euros. There’s also a big grocery store that way. Covid test to test enter the USA? There’s a pharmacy close to the grocery which will take care of the test, give you a written report, for 1/3 the cost of the clinics who are advertising there. Results within 15 minutes. The roads are narrow and the buildings are tall. It’s hard to see the landmarks. Get a map. You can get lost or turned around easily. We did. The breakfast is good. You can ask for bacon and eggs in addition to the regular buffet breakfast. American coffee? Across the street. Code word= Grande Cafe Americano. You’re welcome. I look forward to staying in the Albergo Firenze again.

Nice hotel, near the bargello on via ghibillina. easy to get to, has a ramp to access with a wheelchair. staff were prompt and courteous. our room was the family suite and had 2 sets of stairs to access. we were told that the room was not accessible, but not why. we choose to keep it as it was easter weekend and did not want to be without a room. we made it work. the shower was quite nice and had 1 bed with 2 sleeper sofas. had a microwave, stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher, but no wine glasses? odd. has a rather nice included breakfast, and is quite easy to access various things in Florence. unfortunately, their bar is only open during special events, but there are plenty of places around to get a drink. I would definitely stay again, but would get a regular room. as for suggestions and improvements, I think they should include some wine glasses in the family suite and detail the stairs up to this room. as for people with accessibility issues, you can stay in any other room here quite easily and comfortably and I would recommend it.

The hotel is located very close to Florence’s sights but not on a main tourist route and with some great restaurants nearby. Rooms were spacious, well maintained and clean with modern bathrooms and USB power points. The staff were friendly and the buffet-style breakfast included scrambled eggs along with fresh bread, cold meats, cheese, pastries, cereals, etc. The spa (pool and sauna) is small but atmospheric and is limited to six people, so must booked at reception in advance. There are no towels in the spa but I was told I can take them from my room, just wish I’d know that before I changed. Our shower didn’t appear to have hot water so we had to switch-on the taps in both the shower and sink for the water to heat. Once we'd been told this it wasn’t a problem, but we had to wait for an hour on our first night before maintenance arrived and explained. Perhaps the receptionist will be told or it will be fixed for other guests? There was tea/coffee making facilities in the room but the maid often forgot to leave any replacement tea/coffee or cream. I know that’s a minor issue but when you have to queue at reception on multiple days to ask for more tea it becomes a little annoying. When we return to Florence Casual Rinascimento will be our first-choice hotel, but I’ll pop some teabags in my case next time.

Next to the old bridge in Florence, 403 river view suite, the living room and bedroom have floor-to-ceiling windows facing the Arno River, the location is good and the scenery is good, but the heating is not too hot. On the third day, we were upgraded to the larger family river view suite 405 next door, with a dining room for six people and two bathrooms, which is even better👍🏻 The hotel breakfast is also very rich. recommend!

I loved this quirky old hotel. It is old fashioned in the best possible sense; very well situated close to the train station, the Duomo and the centre of Florence - so a perfect location for shopping and sightseeing. The rooms could do with some refurbishment but are air conditioned, kept very clean, and everything works. Doubles are generous in size, single rooms are small. Breakfast is continental with cheese, ham, muesli, croissants, cake, coffee, tea, hot chocolate and detox water. Most importantly, the staff here were unfailingly courteous and helpful. They really could not do enough for us, from letting me borrow an adapter, to recommending excursions, booking taxis, and accommodating a late check out. There are trendier, more modern hotels in the area, but that is reflected in the price - you get what you pay for.

Few minutes walk from the station past McDonald’s (exit the station from the left). Hotel is set back so can easily be missed. We had a room for three, one double bed and a low camp bed. Rooms made up everyday and towels changed frequently. Wardrobe with plenty of hangers, safe, complimentary water in fridge. I asked if we could have a kettle and this was no problem. Bathroom quite big, shower cubicle with toiletries. Lovely white, big bath towels. Great location for lots of great restaurants and only minutes away from attractions. Rooms are quite warm but there is air con. Breakfast consists of yogurts, fresh fruit, breads, croissants, scrambled eggs and great coffee. Hotel staff are so helpful, even printed out our tickets for one of our trips. Would stay there again, next time exit the train station from the left!

I had problems trying to find a hotel in Florence at short notice and ended up booking a room at this hotel. First I should explain that this hotel is on the second and third floor of a building. I was given a room by the stairs, which by the way are made of wood I think, so the noise of people going up and down was terrible. There is a lift, but it will only take you from the ground floor to the reception, so if you have a suitcase and you are given a room on the third floor, you have to drag it up the stairs, near to where my room was. My room was big enough, with 2 single beds, and a bathroom almost the same side of the room, painted in red! and very dark, even with the light on. The room and bathroom were clean and my linen and towels were changed every day. Breakfast was good, plenty of choice, eggs, cereal, fresh fruit, cheese, cold meat, etc. Unfortunately the reception area was dirty. There are 2 or 3 settees with a material cover, which has not been washed for some time. The location of this hotel is excellent. 15 mns to the Duomo and 30 mns to the Ponte Vecchio. The guys at the reception were very helpful, polite and one of them, on the night shift, (regrettably I did not ask his name) never stopped smiling. Great service. Would I recommend this hotel? Yes but make sure you are giving a room away from the stairs.

Room is not crammed as it has two partitioned sections within the room. Two bunk beds as you enter and the other walk in section has 1 bunk bed and a single bed 👍👍👍 The ensuite separate toilet and bathroom is a really good provision too 👍👍👍 Kitchen is basic but has 2 microwave and 2 fridge where you can store some foods. There’s also a restaurant that provides meals with menu variety

The hotel is within walking distance from the Cathedral/ historical city. The hotel has parking space available that needs to be booked in advance. We had big room with view on the garden. It was quite, nice and clean. The room we had has also kitchenette. If next time in Florence I will first try to book room in this hotel.
