Michelin Guide "Situated in the historic centre... Elegant."
Frommer's "There's a certain old-world elegance, reminiscent of an English country manor, to the richly decorated common rooms and the gravel-strewn garden of this 14th-century palazzo." Full review
Fodor's "Though some rooms are small, they are tasteful, and best of all, housed in a 15th-century palazzo that retains some of its wood-coffered ceilings from the 1500s." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Housed in a 15th-century palazzo that was originally a convent, Hotel Monna Lisais located in the city's Piazza Della Signoria." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Close to Santa Croce, the hotel is in a 14th-century palazzo with terracotta floors, white stucco walls and pietra serena (a type of Italian sandstone) detailing."
Star Service "One of the most popular and least expensive choices in town for those whose fantasies run to sleeping and relaxing in an eccentric residential-style dwelling." Full review
