"This former convent turned boutique hotel is conveniently located within walking distance of the city's main attractions. ... Most guest rooms have a disappointingly stark appearance." Full review
DK Eyewitness "A 16th-century convent is now this superb hotel. The large rooms, some of which are on two levels, are all decorated differently."
Star Service "In a relatively quiet residential neighborhood, around the corner from the superior Monna Lisa, with its elegant and whimsical interiors, this property moves in a more contemporaneous direction." Full review

The off-track location provides guests with glimpses of day-to-day Florentine life that many tourists never see, but make sure to pack mosquito repellent.
Rough Guide "Some rooms are vast split-level affairs, but all have charm and are furnished with modern fittings and a few antiques."

Fodor's "Rooms in this 15th-century palazzo, entered through a courtyard lined with potted plants and sculpture-filled niches, are simply furnished and walls are papered; some have views of the Arno." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Once the leaves fall in autumn, several rooms and the breakfast terrace enjoy beguiling views across the Arno; otherwise, the outlook is green." Full review
