“This family-run hotel, close to the Cestello Church, offers something larger hotels often miss: a personal touch. I think the location in Oltrarno strikes a good balance, removed from the main tourist crush but still near enough to walk to the Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi. The views over the River Arno add a layer of Florentine charm, best enjoyed during breakfast.”
