Top Basilica of Santa Croce Hotel Reviews

Hotel Albani Firenze

8/10 Good

"We were very pleased with our stay at this hotel. Our goal was to stay in a decent hotel with an elevator and near the SMNovella train station, and we hit it spot on! From there you can walk to or take a short bus ride to anywhere. The hotel itself was really nice and the staff were all friendly, helpful and spoke English well, and it’s nice to have a buffet breakfast with a good selection every day! The AC was adequate. They put us on the top floor with no view, just a skylight which we didn’t mind. Our only complaint was our bathroom, though very large, only had a tub. It was difficult to shower, especially if you’re older like us, It had a hand-held shower and the pressure was weak, But with all things considered it’s still a good place to stay and the building itself is very nice and classic."

Albergo Firenze

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay! nino was amazing!"

Hotel Santa Croce

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, we stayed in the Annex building. Very modern, clean, spacious. The lady at the front desk was so nice and super helpful. The only complaint I would say - and it seemed to be similar in other places in Italy - was fire safety. We got one key for our room, and the entry door to the apartment doors had a lock. If you are inside, you cannot leave without a key, which sometimes felt unnerving when my partner left with the keys. Luckily, no emergency happened, but would be helpful if they had an "escape" button for emergencies or just exiting without a key."
