FH55 Hotel Calzaiuoli

"My husband and I just stayed 2 nights here, coming from London. It should have been 3 but we had the most terrible luck with our journey out. The hotel was terrific though. It couldn't have been better positioned. The rooms were very comfortable and spotless. Breakfast was a treat. The staff were outstanding. They were kind, warm, welcoming, courteous and professional. Our special thanks goes to Teresa, Paola, Giacomo, Samir, Leonardo and Habiba. We shall return in November."

"Hotel Calzaiuoli is without a doubt a beautiful & well appointed hotel, perfectly located at the very heart of Florence mere meters from Piazza del Duomo, Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, Giotto's Bell Tower, & The Baptistery of San Giovanni. The rooms themselves are tasteful, comfortable, cool, quiet & pristinely clean, all expertly maintained by the most professional, friendly, happy & helpful housekeeping staff. Thank you to Eva in particular for all the chocolates & for ensuring we were kept well hydrated throughout the heatwave. And thank you too to the most charming Giacomo at front of house for being so welcoming, attentive & helpful, in particular for so effortlessly accommodating us when British Aiways cancelled our flights home, & for making sure what we did finally leave in the small hours to catch a flight home that we did so with two large packed breakfasts! The entire team of staff at Hotel Calzaiuoli made a wonderful few days in Florence truly exceptional. I look forward to returning."

"I suppose this is the definition of luxury. The location is perfect—close to everything. There is a welcome note signed by the general manager addressed to us. The complimentary afternoon water has been replenished. I would describe the room as beyond luxurious. The breakfast is delicious, and the reception staff are warm and welcoming"
