Frommer's "This old-fashioned pensione in a 1507 palazzo just off the river charges little for its simple comfort and kind hospitality. The rooms differ greatly in size and style." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Located on the second and third floors of a 16th-century building, this central hotel, with its vaulted ceilings, retains an aura of grandeur."
Rough Guide "An unpretentious and very good two-star with 27 rooms [nearly all with bathroom] occupying a sixteenth-century palazzo and furnished in a mixture of antique and modern styles."
Fodor's "An aura of grandeur pervades these clean, ample rooms a block from the Ponte Vecchio." Full review
OysterBudget

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
OysterUpscale
"This luxurious property, part of the Why The Best chain, is central to many of the city’s attractions, especially the Santa Maria Novella church." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"One of the city’s best four-star choices. A standout feature is the fourth-floor breakfast room with its bird’s-eye view of Piazza Santa Maria Novella." Full review
Lonely Planet "The type of seductive address James Bond would feel right at home in, this super-stylish hotel oozes panache." Full review
Frommer's "As the name suggests, this hotel is an homage to the clock, with historic timepiece designs scattered artfully about." Full review
Michelin Guide "A stylish and contemporary boutique hotel...it’s a high-end experience, to be sure, though not an entirely self-contained one; the lounge bar serves light fare all day." Full review
