Concierge "Hotel L'Orologio is a two-minute walk away, and yet such is the compact geography of central Florence that you're in one of the city's most charming, historic, and tranquil piazzas."
Star Service "This place arrived on the scene with the kind of quality and attention to detail usually reserved for the Ferragamos' small cast of hip high-end hotels nearer the Arno." Full review
Fodor's "The owner of this quietly understated, elegant hotel has a real passion for watches, which is why he chose to name his hotel after them (and why you will see them in many places)." Full review

Michelin Guide "The hotel premises include the upper floors of the building. The rooms are spacious and bright and an outstanding feature is the breathtaking view from the two terraces of the entire town."
Star Service "While the entry-level digs are docked points for being at times pokey, the staff is sensational and the views ensure temporary amnesia." Full review
Fodor's "If you're looking for a room with a view, stop here, where just about every one has a window that frames the awe-inspiring Duomo or the Arno (some even have small terraces)." Full review

Independent "The accommodation comprises comfortable, classically furnished rooms and suites, as well as some apartments...situated on the Arno, so makes a good base for strolling to all the main sights."
