Hotel San Giovanni

The family were really helpful. Location was very good just outside the Dome in Florence.

There was no A/C. Very difficult to locate. Very very old hotel and pictures shown in the site do not correspond with the reality.

The location can't be beat--in the center of Florence, 2 min from the Duomo, 5 min from the central market, 10 min from the Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio. It was a fabulous place for exploring the city. There was a supermarket and a good wine store within a stone's throw, and many restaurants and shops nearby.

We did not really have any staff on site--the guy who prepared our breakfast and cleaned, from Sri Lanka, was very nice, but didn't have much info for sightseeing. Shower was miniscule, and bed was rock hard, but worst was having TV on metal arm stickiing out over the only place to put suitcases--nearly decapitated more than once.

Location, Location, Location.... the hotel is right on the Duomo Piazza, which makes the trips around the area so easy. Florence is small and the excellent location of this hotel made it all the more easy. Neat and clean. Toilets just bearable. Excellent 5euro breakfast, really convenient to start the day. Dont miss the candy shop opposite the hotel and a really good value for money pizzeria just 30m away. Try for the rooms facing the square. Triple room is spacious. Although not A/C, insist on portable fans, which are just fine.

excellent location, very central

bed was very hard and very noisy on Sunday night
