Amazing location right by a very happening square, walkable to all the sites. Super clean room and very quiet despite being right next to the square. Super friendly staff. Beds were great and breakfast was lovely.

The property is very clean, has a friendly staff, and is walkable to many destinations. You cannot access the property by car because many streets are closed off near the property. We had to park at a parking garage which charged 45 euro per night and then we had to walk about 5 minutes with our luggage to get to the hotel. Furthermore, the elevator was not accessible from the ground floor. We carried our bags up several flights of stairs just to reach the elevator, but it is so tiny that we all just kept climbing stairs. I suggest putting bags and 1 person in the elevator. The hotel amenities listed laundry facilities and laundry services; they only have services. In other words I rented the room so that I could wash my own laundry but they do not have facilities on site. Again, the hotel is clean, has friendly staff, and is walkable to many destinations.

The hotel staff was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The rooms were large and impeccably clean. The location is perfect. Everything is walkable from the hotel including the train station. If you are a runner and looking for great trails, run along the river away from the downtown, and in less than 2km will run through a park with dirt trails along the river.

The reception staff here are very friendly and hilarious. The hotel is located very closely to all the tourist areas, the bridge, the Academy Museum, the Uffizi gallery, and the cathedrals, etc. I enjoyed my stay. Stop by the Terrazza Rodo for a drink and delicious tiramisu!

Great location in Florence
This hotel is in a great location in Florence, not too far from the Santa Maria Novella train station and just a few blocks from the Ponte Vecchio. There are a lot of stairs (in case that is is an issue) to access the hotel which is inside of a locked building. There is a small lift part of the way which helps if you have a suitcase. We liked the location as we could walk everywhere. The hosts at the desk were very friendly. We did not do the breakfast with the additional charge but that is an option for those interested. Our room was very quiet at night so we were able to sleep well.

This hotel and the 4 men who work the front desk are absolutely WONDERFUL. My stay was perfect. The location is fantastic, it is on a very quiet street, there are not a lot of rooms so the hallways are quiet too, and all the shopping and dining you could ask for. The employees helped me with every single thing I needed, including calling a taxi, providing me a bandaid to cover a welt from all the walking I did, a map, etc. I can’t say enough good things about Hotel Alessandra. Thank you guys for a wonderful vacation! Hope to come back here at some point!

My husband and I stayed at the amazing Hotel Alessandra for 10 fantastic nights and cannot wait to return for another visit. The rooms in this unique historic building are beautifully appointed and the hotel is situated close to many key locations. Each member of the Hotel Alessandra staff treated us with warmth and grace. The owner, Andrea, made us feel like family. We love, love, love this hotel!

We LOVED staying at this hotel. It's so charming and filled with character - surprises like old typewriters and telephones and a generally interesting and lovely vibe. The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming. A few minor drawbacks to be aware of - steps to our bathroom in our room were tough to navigate at night a musty smell (but much compensated for by the beautifully decorated space). Only wish they would have prepped us better for the nightmare of driving there - no one should do that. Park the car outside and take public transpo (Hang on - is that possible?). Overall we really loved staying there and would highly recommend this hotel.

Very nice rooms with all amenities. An older hotel with a small elevator. Cannot fit all luggage. Must do a couple trips to get it up and down. Lots of stairs. No help from staff with luggage. I loved the older hotel experience. Breakfast worth ordering. Offers any coffee from bar. Eggs, bacon, bread, nice sweets. Order breakfast the night before.

Lovely hotel about 10 min walk from many major sites. Staff was friendly and helpful. Our room overlooked the river with a great view. The room was well maintained and kept clean on a daily basis. The only challenge was the stairs leading to the elevator but the hotel management was very upfront about this fact and the walk up was worth it for this great hotel, in our opinion.

It’s old fashioned in a good way. Employees were wonderful. Suggested restaurants and made dinner reservations for us, booked taxi to airport for us. There is a little terrace on roof that we sat on and drank wine. Room was very clean and had everything we needed. Great location! Walked to museums and restaurants and the river. Would definitely stay here again

I highly recommend this Hotel. Charming and spacious hotel with an exceptional staff! Safe, clean, quiet, convenient to key locations....boxes all checked. This well managed hotel is a 1930's throwback with charming decor in lobby and hallway and classic leather punched room keys you leave/ pick-up at the front desk. You immediately appreciate this hotel as soon as you meet Monty, as he welcomes guests at the front desk. In fact, the entire staff were very friendly and helpful. Even with all the charm, this hotel had all the modern amenities one would expect. If that wasn't enough, Hotel Alessandra has a private terrace (usually empty) that has a view of the river and overlooks a centuries old church bell tower that is lit up at night, we found it to be a perfect place to share a bottle of wine to end the day!
