TORRE GUELFA * * *
Charming hotel with spacious rooms equipped with all modern comforts and a panoramic terrace
The building was built in the 12th century and the tower is one of the oldest in the city. That's why, once you enter, you feel like you're in another time. This charming hotel has managed to blend the atmosphere of the mansion with a contemporary art atmosphere. The rooms are spacious, equipped with all modern comforts and the decoration is tasteful! Some have a terrace. But for the others, it is not a problem, because a panoramic terrace accessible to all the customers makes it possible to drink in the open air.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hotel Torre Guelfa during my four-night visit to Florence, Italy. Nestled in the heart of this enchanting city, the hotel promised a blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Here's a detailed review of my experience:
Location:
Hotel Torre Guelfa boasts an unbeatable location in the historic center of Florence. Situated just a stone's throw away from iconic landmarks such as the Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery, the hotel offers easy access to the city's most renowned attractions. Additionally, its proximity to quaint cafes, lively piazzas, and bustling markets immerses guests in the vibrant Florentine atmosphere.
Ambiance and Decor:
Stepping into Hotel Torre Guelfa feels like stepping back in time, as the property exudes a palpable sense of history and character. Housed in a beautifully restored medieval tower, the hotel's interior features a harmonious blend of period furnishings, antique artwork, and elegant decor. The lobby's vaulted ceilings and ornate frescoes create an atmosphere of grandeur, while the cozy lounge areas provide inviting spaces to relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing.
Accommodations:
My accommodations at Hotel Torre Guelfa surpassed expectations in terms of both comfort and style. I stayed in a deluxe room, which was impeccably appointed with plush furnishings, rich fabrics, and tasteful decor. The room offered modern amenities such as air conditioning, a flat-screen TV, and complimentary Wi-Fi, ensuring a comfortable stay. The highlight, however, was undoubtedly the breathtaking views of the cityscape and the Arno River from the room's windows, providing a picture-perfect backdrop to my stay.
Service:
The staff at Hotel Torre Guelfa epitomized warm Italian hospitality, going above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay for guests. From the moment of arrival, I was greeted with genuine warmth and professionalism, and throughout my stay, the staff remained attentive, courteous, and eager to assist with any inquiries or requests. Whether arranging restaurant reservations, providing insider tips on local attractions, or simply engaging in friendly conversation, the staff's dedication to guest satisfaction was evident at every turn.
Dining:
While Hotel Torre Guelfa does not have an on-site restaurant, it does offer a delightful breakfast service served in a charming dining room overlooking the hotel's picturesque courtyard. The breakfast buffet featured an array of freshly baked pastries, artisanal cheeses, cured meats, seasonal fruits, and delectable Italian specialties, ensuring a delicious start to each.
In un Palazzo Storico, splendidamente tenuto ed arredato. Colazione ricca di ogni prodotto e per ogni gusto, servita anch’essa in un elegante ambiente dal quale … salendo 80 gradini si può arrivare alla Terrazza che consente di godere di un panorama emozionante su tutta la città di Firenze.
Camere ampie e confortevoli, dotate di tutto ciò che può servire.
Personale gentile e disponibile… che altro dire? Fantastico!
