My stay at Residenza D'Epoca Palazzo Galletti was quite a mixed experience. The charm and romantic atmosphere of this historical B&B were enchanting, and the spaciousness of my room, Mercurio, added to the comfort. However, I found the lack of an elevator quite challenging, especially with heavy luggage, and not having free wifi in the room was a bit inconvenient.

The room I stayed in was spacious and well-decorated, with a nice balcony and a huge bathroom. Still, the fact that I had to carry my luggage up to the second floor was a downside.

Service

The staff were genuinely helpful and provided good tourist information, though communication was sometimes a bit tricky due to limited English proficiency. They were very kind and accommodating, which I appreciated.

Palazzo Galletti's location is fantastic. It's just a short walk to the Duomo, making it easy to explore Florence, yet it feels removed from the crowded tourist areas.

Breakfast was served in a quaint cellar. While it didn't impress me too much, it was decent enough to start my day. I found nearby cafes like Il Dolce di Patrizio Cosi even better for a quick bite.

I had a lovely stay at Palazzo Galletti, with spacious and stylish rooms that felt like staying in an art gallery. The location was perfect, just a short walk from major attractions, though the lack of a lift was a challenge with my luggage. The breakfast left a bit to be desired, but overall, the quaint charm and friendly service made my experience nice.

I stayed in the Cerere room, which had gorgeous frescoes and was clean and spacious. The only downside was a bit of noise from a classroom above, but it was manageable.

Service

The staff were friendly and helpful, giving me great tips on local eateries. However, the lobby hours were limited, so it’s good to communicate arrival times in advance.

The hotel is in a fantastic spot, only a five-minute walk to the Duomo. It’s conveniently close to restaurants and shops without being in the noisy tourist hub.

Dining

Breakfast was pretty basic and not super appealing, so I ended up grabbing pastries from nearby shops instead. There are great local cafes just a block away that I highly recommend.

Facilities

I loved the artistic vibe and how clean everything was. There is a nice spa downstairs, although it’s not part of the hotel. Just a heads-up, you'll need to navigate some stairs to get to the rooms.
