“Hotel Palazzo Dal Borgo occupies a 15th-century Medici palace in central Florence, a location advantageous for visiting major landmarks. The authentically historic vibe extends to the rooms, some of which, though small, display original frescoes. I appreciate the quiet courtyard-a relaxing space among lemon trees-and the consistently helpful staff, all adding to the hotel's unique character.”

The location was really good. It made exploring so simple. i adored the breakfast served in the lovely courtyard. the staff were helpful with directions and suggestions. it created a romantic atmosphere.
the junior suite's bathroom needed some updating. the shower stall had some hard water stains. the shower head was also a bit loose. i found a couple of cobwebs near the ceiling in the second room. that really bothered me.

Really good Stay in a Historical Setting

helpful staffbreakfast assortmentconvenient locationgaudy wallpaper
The staff were helpful. They arranged an early breakfast for our day trip. The breakfast included a wide assortment of pastries, fruit, cheese, cereal, juice, and coffee. I found the location very convenient, it was close to the center of the city. The 'Superior' Room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. I appreciated the space it offered.
The room furnishings and the wallpaper were red. I thought the color was too gaudy and really didn't suit my liking.
