The property is gorgeous. The concierge is never around and the staff are not knowledgeable about anything other than dinner reservations. Asking about the Uffizi gallery was a waste of time. For the price, I would have expected a concierge that was available.

Italian hospitality at its best - caring, friendly and professional staff, especially helpful was siñor Franchesco who explained everything to us in a very clear way and took good care of us during our 7 day stay Of course for those few people like us who rented a car and drove into Florence it was a nightmare to drive through busy crowded narrow medieval streets to get to the hotel but they have an option to park your car in the nearby garage and bring it on demand Room was cozy, historic and clean ; service at the restaurant was good, so was the breakfast buffet - it would be better if breakfast extended to 11 am instead of finishing at 10:30 for those like us who aren’t early risers / overall staying at Helvetia Bristol was wonderful as was staying in Florence for the entire week/ would definitely recommend!

Great Stay

My family and I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. The location was ideal. Rooms were nice and spacious. The shower was excellent. Water pressure was perfect, which is a big deal to me. Loved that drinking water was complimentary considering Italy is so hot in July and that they provided ample amounts each day. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the $150 hotel service tip that was added onto our final bill. The front desk representative did explain that it was completely optional and that it could be removed, but it made me a bit uncomfortable and I felt obligated to leave it on (which I think is their strategy). I don't feel like that is the proper way to earn tips.
