So nice to be located 20 mins or so walk away from the hordes of tourists in the historic centre, and yet still feel very much in the most beautiful part of the city. The neighbourhood is very cool, with some lovely restaurants and bars on Borgo San Frediano just five minutes' walk away. The hotel itself is tucked away from the road, connected to an adjoining functioning convent, and is very peaceful, with beautiful grounds. Staff are very friendly (thanks in Dan the barman, and for Giovanni for really making us laugh). The bar area is divine, we went every evening at 7pm for cocktails before dinner. The breakfast is fantastic, hot and cold food and even some prosecco to get he day started right, with very efficient staff on hand. Rooms very comfortable, very dark so great for sleeping.
