Quality and Class. Perfect Location

Just an overnight stay but enough time to experience the quality & magical ambiance that this majestic hotel exudes. The service and help from the front desk was equally impressive. From its historical aspect this hotel was what you imagined the great hotels in history would be like.
From it's solid feel, ornate ceilings & walls and great noise suppression in the rooms, to it's perfect location within the old part of Florence and quite good value, this hotel was a total joy to stay in.
The only disappointing note is learning that the hotel is due for a major modernisation/refurbishment which might mean the loss of its wonderful historic feel.

Granted this is rated only 2 stars so I did not expect much but went for location as well as price. However, it was much worse than I could have imagined. The room was very dirty and was never cleaned in spite of my complaints. The bed was awful, shaped like a canoe & soggy. They claim Raffaello stayed here. I think we got his bed. You take 2 tiny elevators to get to your room. Hotel is very noisey and side street noise all night long. Staff not helpful and gave us wrong directions to local travel agency. 5 Euro breakfast OK, but that's about all. Location not a factor since Florence is not that big a city.

We had a wonderful stay for 4 nights during our honeymoon in Italy. We stayed at some pretty nice places throughout our trip, but this was by far our favorite! The location is perfect- very central to most everything, but located on a relatively quiet section of the street. The room was very clean and pretty spacious (especially for european standards). One thing worth mentioning is the beds in Italy tend to be on the hard/firm side, and it took us some getting adjusted to--not the case with NH Porta Rossa--finally a comfortable bed! The staff was knowledgeable, professional, and INCREDIBLY friendly and helpful- particularly Minea and Andreas. They booked our Uffizi gallery tickets, made several dinner reservations for us, etc. Also, I emailed them a week before our arrival to let them know I am allergic to down feathers and they made sure the room was feather free (sounds simple enough, but was not done at other expensive hotels!) They also gave us a complimentary upgrade for our honeymoon from a superior room to a deluxe room, which was an added bonus. Huge selection at breakfast, which was pretty good. There is also free wi-fi in the lobby sitting area - would've been nice to have in the room, but not really a big deal. All, in all, we HIGHLY recommend this hotel, and would definitely stay here if we go back!

The staff very nice and friendly. They intorduced us two close by restaurants and they were both the best. one of them was family owned and very nice people. The price was good too. The hotel is right in the centre of the city. 5 minutes walk and you will be at Dumo. Defenitely we recommend this hotel.

Great choice for Florence stay
-
Leesha
- 19 Oct 2011
I researched many hotels before deciding on this one to stay a week in Florence. It turned out to be a great choice. First of all the location was great. It is a short walk down river from Ponte Vecchio. Always a great view. This made it easy to visit activities on both sides of the Arno. I recommend walking up to the Piazzale Michelangelo when you first get there while you have the energy and to give you a great overview of the city. We were there Oct 9-16. We lucked out on perfect weather.
We took a taxi to the hotel from the airport which took about 20 minutes. It cost 25 euros, a little more since it was Sunday. At the Berchielli, the staff is excellent. This includes front desk, breakfast and daily maid service. We booked the basic room so was pleasantly surprised to get a nice room on the 5th floor with a terrace overlooking the courtyard. This was fine because we wanted it to be quiet with an inside room and it was. You do hear a church bell but it just made it more charming. The room configurations are all different. Ours included a desk and small stocked minibar with enough room for our own bottle of water. The bed was on the firm side but surprisingly comfortable. We slept well. The bathroom was clean with a shower/bathtub combo. If you like lotion or hair conditioner, bring your own. I thought the blow dryer worked well.
One reason I decided to stay here was because it had a full buffet breakfast. There were scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, thin pancakes, rolls, bread you could toast, pastries, whole and cut-up fresh fruit, yogurt, custard, cereals, cheese, juices, ice, coffees and tea. I like a big breakfast so I don't need to worry about a big lunch and instead use the time to visit the museums and sights. I didn't find anywhere special to recommend for dinner but it was all fairly good with similar offerings.
We took a bus tour to Siena and San Gimingano one day and would recommend that. We also took a bus tour one afternoon to Pisa which I enjoyed but wish I had time to see more on both tours we found on the internet. I couldn't imagine some of these places in the heat and crowds of summer since I thought it was fairly crowded most places we went. Expect lines at the Uffizi and Accademia which we got reserved tickets ahead of time. Also there can be lines at the Duomo both to go inside and to climb up to the top of the cupola for amazing views. May not be good for those afraid of heights or claustraphobic. Plan on going to the Cathedral's museum to learn about what it was supposed to look like. Try and catch a guide for better understanding. Visit the Piazzas especially della Signoria with the Loggia dei Lanzi. We really visited most museums and churches that were recommended by quide books. Something to appreciate and learn in them all.
Plan on visiting the Pitti Palace and take plenty of time to see all the exhibits and gardens. There is always more to see at museums that you think. Prices may seem high for some but it's part of the experience. We also took a train to visit Lucca. Love exploring little Tuscan towns. Do your research and plan wisely so you can see all you want as well as take in the beauty and charm of the area like sunset on the bridges, eating gelato and enjoying evening walks. The city is well lit-up at night. It is full of every high-end name brand store. Plan to have enough Euros on you since most museums just take cash. Also be prepared that the museums don't allow photos to be taken and are well watched. I think so you have to buy the books. Be stealthy. This is a wonderful hotel and place to visit especially if you appreciate art, architecture and history. Yes, there can be mosquitoes so be prepared if you are not covered up.

The hotel is bright, clean, quiet, and has all the amenities you would like.

Good place to stay, could have been better
-
Physician
- 13 Nov 2011
Overall, I should say that I had a good stay at this place.
First of all, it is located about 3-5 minutes from Florence's train station. This was very convenient to me as I traveled between cities by train. So, arriving from Venice or leaving for Pisa the following day and Rome the day after (quite early in the morning) was not at all issue. I could easily walk from the station despite having 2 travel bags with wheels. However, such close proximity to the station and its location on a fairly busy street could be an issue at night sometimes, as you may hear a lot of noise from the street compromising on your sleep. It does get quieter later at night and remains so until early morning.
The most important reason as to why I gave lesser points on amenities and room comfort is because the sound-proofing in the facility is poor. I could literally hear every word that was spoken in my neighbor's room (not that I intended it) and as they were awake after I had gone to bed, it was too much of a hindrance for me, as I could not go to sleep for quite some time. The second drawback is that there was a constant malodor prevailing in the bathroom despite the bathroom being clean. I am not sure if it was because of a common ventilator duct traversing the floors above and below. The shower area is quite small. I am an average person and for someone who is big, this could definitely be an issue. If you drop your soap, you could find it very difficult to pick it up from the floor. However, these were not major issues to me on the whole.
My bed was comfortable. The room was clean. Mine had a balcony attached to it with a table and few chairs. I could sit on the balcony late in the evening and relax. This would be great if you traveled as a couple.
There is a restaurant/pizzeria right across the street (Trattoria, I believe) with very affordable prices and does not charge for COVER (this is a common concept when you dine in Italy, more so in Venice). This could be convenient when you return in the evening tired from sight-seeing. Or you could order food for take-out and have it with your partner on the balcony!
Staff was very friendly and helpful. They were always happy to provide useful suggestions and directions. My room was tidied every day and it could not have been kept better.
The complimentary breakfast that they provide is extremely good. This came in handy as I was mostly seeing places. After a good breakfast, I could postpone my meal until early in the evening concentrating more on sight-seeing and worrying little about where or when I would eat next. If I needed, I could grab a quick bite and go on.
For the price you pay for this hotel, I think this is definitely worth it. If I ever get back to Florence, I won't mind staying here again.

Description
The Orto de' Medici Hotel in Florence is located inside an early 19th Century palace along a tranquil street in downtown Florence, near the Academy Gallery (Galleria dellAccademia) and only five minutes by foot from the Cathedral and the Basso Fortress (Fortezza da Basso). Clients have access to valet parking. The hotel's privileged position makes it a great point of departure for cultural visits to the heart of the city of Florence, shopping and participation in fairs and congresses.
The 42 rooms in the Hotel, classic, deluxe or junior suite, are tastefully and elegantly furnished. From the windows of many of our rooms it is possible to admire the magnificent view of the Medieval roofs of Florence.
The palace hall is accessed through a suggestive corridor painted with frescoes that leads into the Tuscan "Serena Rock" stairway that connects the four floors of the hotel.
Continuing along the corridor, you reach the charming internal garden, guard of a prestigious past: In the late 16th Century, Lorenzo de Medici, "Il Magnifico", set up in Florence a school of sculptors that was recognized as the premier Art Academy in Europe. Among its most prominent students, Michelangelo Buonarroti learned here the artistic techniques that allowed him to create his masterpieces a few years later, which still attract a great number of tourists to Florence. Today a path paved with pietra serena and covered with an iron and glass structure allows our guests to easily access the new deluxe rooms, which will follow small paths embellished with geometrical hedges and saplings. At the centre of the garden there is a fountain surmounted by a small bronze angel (copy of Verrocchio).
The Hotels first floor has two spacious reading rooms with frescoed ceilings and parquet floors. The beautiful dining room, decorated with floral landscapes, borders a large flowered terrace where guests can dine in the open and, during the summer, enjoy a drink and a relaxing evening at the La Terrazza dellOrto bar.
Wi-Fi areas and Internet workstations are always available in our Hotel.

This hotel is so conveniently located! As two girls traveling alone, we felt right at home and safe in the neighborhood immediately. We were convenient walking distance to all of Florence's famous sites and to the train station. The airport is a little further, but the taxis offer a fixed 25 euro fare, so it was very convenient as well. The hotel was clean and the common areas were beautiful! Our room was average, but it was large and clean, and we were given the opportunity to upgrade when we arrived at the hotel. They offered a nice breakfast and wifi which were both very convenient for our trip. When they found out that it was my birthday, they gave me a nice note and some complimentary biscotti. I thought it was a very nice touch. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends. I thought it was a great value, and the convenient location could not be beat!

When I walked up to the hotel, I was thinking that I had made a big mistake. I needed a place to stay just for the evening that wasn't too far from the train station. I was pleasantly surprised.
The interior was much better than the outside. I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. My room was comfortable complete with a safe and refrigerator. Unlike other rooms that I have had in Italy, I appreciated having a shower with full shower curtain. The floors are tile and were clean.
Breakfast was hearty with the traditional breads, cold cuts and cheese. Ordered a cappuccino which was far better than the "American coffee".
The location was fantastic. The hotel is a 5 minute walk to the train station, 1 minute to the markets and the Basilica San Lorenzo, and 10 minutes max to the Duomo and Uffizi Gallery.

We had a very nice stay @ this hotel. We stayed with our 14 yr old daughter in a 'triple'. The room was very clean. The breakfast was great with a big variety of options, including fresh fruit, yogurt, cold cuts, hard boiled eggs, rolls, croissants, 3 - 4 different pastries, rolls, and breads. The location is ideal; within walking distance to The Academia, The Uffizi, the Duomo, Ponte Vecchio, the open market, the leather market, etc. much shopping and many many restaurants. We walked everywhere all week, never took a cab. My parents will be visiting the same area in the Spring and will be staying at the same hotel.

We had a great time at this hotel. We got a room with the view of the square and it was within walking distance from all the major tourist sites we wanted to check out. It was also within walking distance from all kinds of eateries and market places. We found delicious gelato right around the corner and two fantastic trattorias less than 10 min walk away. The hotel staff was helpful and the view from the roof top was fantastic. The room, facility, and amenities do show their age. But everything is kept clean.

A Room with a View of the Duomo
- old traveler
- 6 Apr 2011
We loved our stay at this hotel. It is centrally located, very nice spotless room which we were able to upgrade for a room right on the square with a view of the Duomo for only 30 Euros extra. We were centrally located and able to walk… everywhere. Our pleasant hotel room was a good place to hang out when tired.

Breakfast for the first two days was a little more hearty, but after the tour from Germany left it became a little more Spartan, but there was still enough to fill you up. Floors in room were tile and needed to be cleaned/mopped as you could notice it on a a pair of white socks. 15 minute walk to the Dumo. Staff was very helpful. 10 mins to the Academia.

We travelled through Italy as mother and adult son, when my adult daughter decided to join us in Florence. I tried to change the booking for 2 people to 3 people the day before and it hadn't reached the Hotel. Anyway, they made every effort to accommodate the 3 of us at a very reasonable extra cost. This was very much appreciated. Our room (no 6) even had a small balkony overlooking a charming Florencian backyard.
The internet was provided free, the breakfast was ample, the staff was very helpful with all our questions.
The hotel is located 5 minutes from the centre and 10 min to the Uffizi.
They have an arrangement with a carpark that picks up your car on arrival and deliveres the car back on departure, making it a carefree holiday.
A tip on bike rental close by made it very easy for us to discover a much greater area of Florence then if we would have by foot.

The hotel is in a prime location, I didn't have to take a single cab to visit all the sites I was interested in. The service was great, everyone spoke English well and I had all my questions answered. There are plenty of restaurants close by, but I would recommend taking advantage of the rooftop atmosphere with the meat and cheese platter at least once during your stay.

Unexpected gem

Billa
- 3 Jan 2012
One usually doesn't expect much from a 3-star hotel, but this one beat all my expectations. The staff was friendly and courteous. The room was large, nicely appointed, with a roomy bathroom, refrigerator and even an in-room safe. Breakfast was included and good. And the location was very convenient, about 4 blocks from the train station and within easy walking distance of everything, yet in a quiet spot.

We loved this hotel. It was a short walk to all of the main sights and attractions. The room was really big for a European hotel room. Our room had a skylight which was awesome! Breakfast was good and the staff were all very helpful. My only criticism is that it cost money to connect to the internet. Luckily there was a great bar nearby with free wifi. There were lots of great bars and restaurants really close to the hotel. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel! It was a great value--very high quality considering how cheap it is!

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but once inside it is a grand old hotel. Its a little past its prime but clean and comfortable. Staff is friendly and helpful. The included breakfast buffet is excellent. The location is great. Walking distance to the river, consulate, train station and car rentals. I would stay there again if in Florence. There is a very nice local restaurant across the street.

Very nice hotel

Carmen
- 12 May 2011
We were very glad we chose this hotel. The desk staff was very courteous and helpful. Our room was clean, comfortable and nicely decorated and was very spacious for a European room. The bathroom was also roomy and modern with big,soft towels. My only complaint about the room is that the mattress was very hard but this seems to be the norm in Italy. I guess they just like extra firm mattresses. The complimentary breakfast was very good with plenty of food choices including fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, cheeses and other "heartier" items. They also have a nice lobby area with comfy chairs and sofas for reading and relaxing. The Adriatico is located within walking distance of the train station. Close enough that you can walk it even when pulling a suitcase. It is centrally located to many of the "must see" sights in Florence with lots of restaurants and bars close by. It was a little noisy the first night since it was the night the street cleaners came through. Although the air conditioning was not running yet the weather in early May is still cool and we were very comfortable, we even needed a blanket at night. I highly recommend this hotel and if we ever get a chance to go to Florence again we'll stay at the Adriatico.
