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

The rather large accommodations on the piazza have the best views...but they also pose a real risk of a noisy night.
Lonely Planet "Very much part of city history, the Pendini opened in 1879 as an upmarket pensione – hence the giant 'Pensione Pendini' lettering dominating its privileged facade on Piazza della..." Full review
