Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Hotel Kraft from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Kraft is generally considered a great choice, offering spacious and clean rooms that many find tastefully decorated. A highlight for many guests is the rooftop area, featuring a heated pool with lovely city views. The breakfast, with plentiful and tasty options, is served on the 5th floor, where guests can enjoy amazing panoramic views of Florence; however, some guests have noted noise from nearby rooms. Situated a pleasant 15-minute walk from the center and close to Santa Maria Novella church, the location is convenient, with quiet residential streets and easy access to restaurants and shops.

The reception staff provided excellent service. I enjoyed the rooftop pool. The area was just outside the main sites but an easy walk into them. The restaurant was lovely. I particularly enjoyed the fillet steak. Though it was not combined with the pate combination I anticipated.
The noise isolation was not adequate. I could hear the sounds of chairs moving on the tiled floor at various hours. I could hear the German guest next door coughing as if he were in my room. I found it disruptive. Though I understand the hotel's historical value.

I appreciate the kindness of the personnel. The restaurant located on the fifth floor offers amazing views. I liked that breakfast choices are varied and delicious. Dinners were some of the best food I had. The staff shows friendliness and offers support.
I found mosquitoes in the room. I did not speak up right away. I noticed a device to deal with mosquitoes, but I did not know what it was for. In future, I will report this issue sooner.
