"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."

"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."

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.

"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."

"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."
