Lovely hotel in an amazing location. Perfect for exploring Florence for a few days. The breakfast was perfect. We were a big group so we stayed across 3 rooms and all were outstanding. The A/C in one of them had a hard time keeping cool in the extreme heat but otherwise everything was excellent.

I just stayed at Il Guelfo Bianco in Florence. It was lovely! I had a junior suite which was beautiful and spacious! The staff were very nice and you can tell really sought to help each person individually- remembering you by name, attending to every little detail at breakfast, taking the time to explain all of the best places to see around the city. It was wonderful! I would definitely stay here again!

Staff and location were amazing! The breakfast was more than we expected and it was delicious! We had a room by the elevator and on street side. The elevator has a loud dining noise and the street was a little noisy. Would stay there again!

This was a great hotel! Just blocks from the Duomo and central to all museums. We walked everywhere and were never too far from the hotel. Staff was wonderful and the room was very nice. Breakfast each morning was a delicious buffet of fruits, meats and cheeses and bakery items. I highly recommend this hotel.

Staff were pleasant and helpful and the rooms were spacious, elegant, and quiet. Extra kudos to the cleaning staff for ensuring my room was spotless. Lastly, a fantastic location that is a very short walk from most major tourist sites in the city. Highly recommend this place.

The hotel is perfectly situated, close to everything and far enough away that it was very quiet in the evenings. The staff were amazing and very helpful. The breakfast has something for everyone and we enjoyed a cappuccino each morning before heading out to explore. When returning in the afternoon we enjoyed a glass of sparkling wine.

Absolutely spectacular stay. The breakfast buffet was amazing. The rooms are so beautiful. Amazing balance of maintaining the original style of the rooms (amazing wood furniture!) while keeping it modern and comfortable. My favorite place we stayed on our trip and would absolutely stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Il Guelfo Bianco. It is located in a great location, just a few minutes walk from the Duomo and other areas we wanted to visit. The staff at the desk and at breakfast were very nice and helpful. We really enjoyed the many items offered at breakfast, and loved eating in the garden area. We also enjoyed the Prosecco and candy offered to guests in the lobby area. Our room was clean and large, and even had a small enclosed patio area with a table and chairs. It was an easy walk from the Santa Maria Novella train station, but we also once used a taxi and it was reasonably priced. We would stay at this hotel again!
