Concierge "A takeover by Spanish hotel group NH has brought the place up to international standards, forfeiting some of its individuality in the process."
DK Eyewitness "While the current building dates from 1500, documents confirm that a hotel stood here as early as 1386, making this one of Italy’s oldest hotels."
Rough Guide "It retains something of its old ambience while the rooms have been fitted out in crisp but luxuriously modern style."

The street noise gets through even the double glazing, so light sleepers will want to request a room off the road.
Insight Guides "Every bedroom is different in this gorgeous 15th-century palazzo: some have original frescoes, and some overlook an inner courtyard or the cloisters of Santa Maria Novella."

Ask for a room overlooking the courtyard since the streets can be quite noisy.
