Piccolo Hotel

The hotel wasn’t our first choice, but we got relocated here by Expedia’s team after our first location didn’t honour our booking. It’s definitely geared towards traveller with a smaller budget in mind. Property is well located, it’s an easy walk to Florence’s city center and is surrounded by a gold mine of restaurants and stores. That being said, the electricity cut out 3 times during our 4 night stay, and we needed to climb up 2 narrow and tall staircases ( 5 flights total ) to get to our room. So be prepared to carry up and down your luggages, there are no elevators. Nevertheless, the staff was always helpful, and always acted quickly to restore the power. They leave an emergency number at the lobby desk for after hours and help came when we called.

Super walkable to most sights and to restaurants. Washrooms are a little small. Hotel staff were excellent. Would recommend if you're travelling on a budget.

Very easy to get around Florence walking or using public transportation. The front desk person was so nice and he help us with our bags and took that extra mile for us to feel at home very nice experience

We chose it for convenience and location and it delivered that way. But it is a 2 star hotel so we were mindful of that… we opened the balcony door and a cockroach went in our room… while chasing it to kill it we moved the beds/ and notice how stained the mattress was and the wood panels on the box ( base) were broke in some areas making the mattress sink a bit. The furniture is very dated and cheap but the linens were very clean as was the room.
