Hotel Le Due Fontane

The hotel is in a noisy area, so be ready for an early wake-up. It’s a very convenient base, about 20 minutes from the train station and 10 from cathedral square, with museums just minutes away. We stayed three nights. The rooms, bedding and towels were clean, and the staff were very helpful, especially at breakfast. The bathroom felt dated and could use some improvements. We also had to use our own data because the Wi-Fi didn’t work at all.

The breakfast was generous and really good, and the hotel itself is lovely, fitting right in with the feel of Florence. It’s a great base for exploring the city and has everything you need. Rooms are spacious enough, and the bathrooms are clean and well equipped. The A/C works well, though even on its lowest fan setting it may be a bit loud for sleeping. The tram to the airport takes about 30 minutes. I honestly don’t understand the negative vibe in these reviews.

This was our only hotel in Florence. We loved the location, the breakfast and the staff. The breakfast is great for Turkish guests, given the options in Italy. A special thank you to Giovanni, my friend in the breakfast department. I love you, Le due fontane.

The staff stood out most for us. From reception to the dining room, everyone seemed ready to help and make guests feel welcome. Breakfast was really plentiful, and the staff were cheerful and happy to chat. We stayed one night. Our room was clean, tidy, well furnished, and the Wi-Fi worked well. The location is excellent. The hotel arranged parking in a central garage for an extra fee, which was great for us since we had a car and luggage for the next part of our trip. We’ll definitely return when we visit Firenze.
