This 140-year-old hotel inhabits a 17th-century palazzo just a block over from the train station. Mario Noce and his staff stand out for offering rather a far higher level of service, quality, and antique atmosphere than most hotels in the station area.
Rooms often come with iron headboards, antique-repro dressers, and fresh fruit and flowers. One of the most convenient places to stay in Florence since 1872.
Frankly, I've always wondered why Mario doesn't charge more for his stylish rooms and impeccable service—not that I'm complaining about a great hotel maintaining moderate prices; I just wonder.
This joint would easily cost twice as much were it located at a chicer address (and can be downright cheap in the off-season as it is).
