Hotel Orcagna - Florence

This was our first trip to Europe and expected hotels to be less than great. This one was very nice for the price, good neighborhood. The staff was wonderful, made reservations for us, gave us very good directions and advice. We took the bus into town and waked home along the river. The breakfast was as good as any other we experienced in Europe.

ABOVE TWO STAR STANDARD

The reception lady was so nice and helpful, though her English is not very good, she tried to explain everything to us patiently. The place is not new but it was nice and cosy. The lift is small but quite fun. We parked our car right outside the hotel so it was very convenient for us. The room was large enough for our family of 4. We love Florence more because of the reception lady.

We booked this hotel for our last night in Italy. It was much more attractive than we had expected. Our flight left too early for us to enjoy the breakfast, but a peak into the breakfast room made me sad we could not enjoy it. It is charming and full of a bright yellow. The hotel is quite a way from the airport, so be ready for a good size cab fair, but the taxi driver got us ther in about 10 minutes early in the morning before the traffic set in. It is easy to walk to a bustling neighborhood with shops and restaurants and only a few blocks from the river for a peaceful stroll. The bathroom was the best equipped in all of our lodgings. The honor bar is nice if you need it.

a really nice hotel. great price. simple and very clean. great friendly staff, not amazing english but you are in italy! nice roomy rooms. cleaned room and changed sheets everyday. nice clean bathroom etc. breakfast was simple but good (cereal, rolls, juice and hot drink). lots of advice and maps and recommended sights/restaurants. very highly recommended!!

Cost was a bit high for the fact that the electrical outlets in my room never worked, despite their promise that they were fixing it. Staff was, however, generally very nice and helpful, and allowed us to recharge our electronic devices at front desk. Front desk personnel did not all speak English very well. Could not get an important international phone call made through the front desk due to language barrier. Breakfast was included and pretty good. Location was farther from the city than I would have liked to be, but hotel did provide bike service and was on city bus route. Would not necessarily recommend this if I knew of a better hotel for the price, but am unfamiliar with the area. Perhaps that is the best I could expect for the price.

We were stuck on trenitalia for overnight when the train broke down in the mid of italy's outskirts.... Our mood then was low low low...... But when we got into Orcagna, our mood max again! The room was huge, nicely furnished and clean :) Really out of expectation for a budgeted hotel! Strongly recommend.

This hotel room was so small that one of us had to get up on the bed to let the other one pass by. Bathroom was miniscule as well. Price was cheap. But VERY uncomfortable !! !

Overall, the hotel is very nice. The staff was welcoming and helpful, and the breakfast was good. Our room was also comfortable. The hotel is located in a quiet area outside of the city center, and while it is a bit of a walk from the main tourist sites, we knew that when booking and enjoyed the walk, which was easy for us.

Took the 14 bus from the train station to Via Orcagna stop and walked 2 blocks to the hotel. Front desk receptionist was very friendly and helpful. She answered all our questions and had great suggestions. The room was oddly shaped and small but not uncomfortable. The complimentary breakfast was pretty bad though. The croissants were stale, the milk and yogurt weren't kept cold, and they didn't provide any fresh fruit. But I would stay here again.

Great location, spacious room, Great price, fairly clean!

It was about a 15-20 minute walk from the popular areas and attractions, which can be tiring if it is raining or hot. But, the hotel was great. Best breakfast out of all the hotels we stayed at and the best service we recieved. The woman who runs it treated my wife and I like her children. I would definately go back, we found out our last day that they would let you borrow bikes.

Hotel staff was very friendly. the room was spacious and clean. Easy access to bus stop, although we prefered to stroll by the reaverthe. It was a bit noisy as we staid in a room by the staircase on the second floor. stairs were marble (as everything else in Florence) thus you could hear the ecco of steps up and down the stars. If you are a light sleeper, ask for a room facing the back of the building. Nice stay. I would recommend.

Basic small European hotel. Unpretension, but pleasant near local shops and resturants. Within walking distace of major sites and Campo Marte train station.

Siting a problem with our Hotel Orcagna room, the staff sent us to an affiliated hotel across the street, The Hotel Jane. They said they were upgrading us, but the Hotel Jane was what I would have expected for the price we paid for our room. Not having actually seen the Hotel Orcagna rooms, I can't give a first-hand report on their quality. But Hotel Jane (and Orcagna) are both located in a nice, quiet, clean and convenient neighborhood in Florence. the room at Hotel Jane was small but nicely decorated. It was clean and comfortable. Our room was very quiet, facing a very nice backyard with a tree. The bathroom, while clean and newly renovated was absolutely one of the smallest. They should forget about those bidets in Europe just so that they could give you a couple of extra square feet to move around in! The shower was the tiniest we had come across anywhere. But overall I would recommend the Hotel Jane.

This hotel is located in a place that is so close to the river and the center. If you want to run early in the morning by the river, it gives you an excellent opportunity as well ! People there are so kind and nice. The room is in good order and comfortable. I will reserve this hotel for my next trip as well.

I found this hotel based on other reviews on hotels.com. This hotel met all my expectations. It is a bit of a walk to the city center attractions (about 1 to 1.5 km to the Duomo, about 2 km to the main train station), but I felt that, for the price, this bit of inconvenience was justifiable. The number 14 bus provides convenient service for those who do not wish to walk. It is actually quite close to Santa Croce. The surrounding area is fine and I felt safe walking in the area at night. It is easy to find, and the hotel staff was very helpful in providing us directions, schedules, etc. for our sightseeing needs. Overall, I am very satisfied with my stay here.

The location, although seems to be far away from city centre, but actually is quite convenient. We walked for 20 mins from the city centre. The area near the hotel also has many shops, including a supermarket, Coop where you can buy some pasta and ham home. The room is okay, although a bit small. The breakfast is quite basic, I hope they can improve on that. Hot food is prefered.

LOCATED CLOSE TO EVERYTHING WE WANTED TO SEE! CLOSE TO TRAIN STATION AND BUS STOPS

The staff was wonderful, rooms clean & spacious. We used the bikes they had available to ride around the city and enjoyed sitting in their courtyard. We even stayed an extra night.

A three-block walk from the bus into the center of town and about a 20 minute walk from town. Clean, nice room. Breakfast was very good, and all hotel staff were very helpful. Quiet neighborhood with some restaurants nearby. After leaving we had some suspicion (note: only suspicion) of bedbugs.

Hotel Orcagna was in a perfect and quiet location. We were able to walk everywhere since the concierge provided maps and directions as well as tips for where to go. The rates were very low for such quality service. Our room was also much larger than I had expected for a European hotel. Everything was clean and well arranged. I would recommend this hotel as well as revisit again myself.

In comparison to the other places in Italy that we stayed for the same price, this hotel was amazing. We got a clean spacious room with a nice bathroom and a decent view. Breakfast was adequate and the hotel staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The only downside (if you'd even consider it one) is a 15 minute walk down pleasant, safe roads in beautiful Florence.

We enjoyed our stay. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful and gave us tips to help make our visit more enjoyable. Breakfast was good with freshly made coffee. The hotel is within level walking distance of the old city, but the No. 14 bus service runs near to the hotel and appears to be very frequent.

Very clean. Quiet location. Walking distance to center of city. Staff very nice, very little English, but enough to get by.

It's a good hotel to stay for a night. We were tired of an old unpleasant smell in our room.

Personnel tres aimable, hotel tres agreable et chaleureux. Petit dejeunet complet et copieux.. Sejour parfait grace au plan fourni par l'hotel

Nous avons séjourné 1 nuit à l'hôtel Orcagna, nous y avons été trés bien accueillis, le personnel est compétent et trés gentil, les chambres sont grandes, climatisées et trés propres, nous y retournerions sans problémes.

Hotellet ligger i rimelig avstand til sentrum av byen. Dersom du er ute etter en god seng og at rom/bad er rene og til en rimelig pris, så kan jeg trygt anbefale hotellet.

The service level of this hotel is the highest we have ever experienced around the world. All staff members were very helpfull and smiling. This is a cozy hotel, with few rooms and a good breakfast buffet.

accueil sympatique. chambre correcte. bon petit déjeuner. 15 min à pied du centre ville... rapport qualité-prix intéressant

parfait pour la visite de florence

Parking en sus Hotel trés calme

Accueil trés agréable, personnel charmant. Nous sommes réveillés le matin par les chants des oiseaux.La chambre comme l'hôtel sont trés propres. Effort écolo pour respecter l'environnement ( entretien du linge de salle de bain). La douche du 5ième étage est peut-être un peu étroite .

Die Zimmer sind praktisch eingerichtet und in einwandfreiem Zustand. Die Lage an einer belebten Straße störte nicht. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und ausgesprochen hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück entsprach italienischem Standard, genügte aber durchaus. Vom Hotel aus sind touristisch wesentliche Punkte mit öffentlichen Vekehrsmitteln oder zu Fuß günstig erreichbar.

La proprietaria è molto simpatica e disponibile.

Väldigt serviceinriktad personal som gör sitt yttersta för att du ska trivas. Hotellet är ganska enkelt men kostar å andra sidan inte så mycket heller. Välstädade rum med ganska hårda sängar.

The hotel is on a quiet side street (close to the riverfront). The staff are nice and helpful (some speak good English). Everything seems to be done quietly and efficiently - cleaning, breakfast service (buffet downstairs), etc. Great value-for-money.

Accueil très courtois, avec une bonne situation en matière de parking (ce qui n'est pas un détail à Florence !), bâtiment ancien mais bien entretenu. Notre chambre sur la rue était un peu bruyante (mais pas à un point vraiment gênant), mais très grande, avec une salle de bain impeccable. Personnel très agréable, excellente situation très proche du centre ville historique : on se promène, on revient se reposer...

ett litet hotell där man snabbt känner igen de som jobbar på hotellet. Personalen mycket trevlig. Lugnt läge och ändå hyfsat centralt. Hotellet motsvarade våra förväntningar!

A nice hotel, worth every penny. Centrally located, just a km away from the Duomo. Friendly and informative staff.

Zimmer etwas klein, sonst alles sehr gut. Ca. 15 Gehminuten zum Zentrum. Restaurants und Supermarkt in der Nähe, Lage daher gut.

L'hotel est très bien situé dans un quartier calme à l'extérieur de la zone à visiter. Il faut seuleument 20 mn pour rejoindre la vieille à pied. L'arrêt de bus est proche. L'accueil ( jour/ nuit ) est très professionnel, disponible et agréable

Un hotel très sympa, pas trop cher. A 15-20 min à pied du centre de Florence. Les chambres sont équipées d'une salle de bain avec WC et de la climatisation. Le personnel est très gentil et de bons conseils. Bref, que des compliments à faire pour cet hotel !!

prix elever moin cher sur place en discutant

à 10 mn du centre - le dernier etage (2 chambres) donne sur une terrasse avec une vue sur le toit du Duomo - Ideal pour une famille de 4-5 personnes - Bon matelat

freundlicher,zuvorkommender Service sehr gute Zentrumsnähe, sehr sauber

Quelques améliorations à attendre : rafraichir le papier peint! Avoir une télé c'est bien mais pas une chaine française!!alors que la parabole de nos jours est à bas prix!
