B&B Repubblica

This room was spacious, very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The location of this B&B is perfect, a short walk to all the main sites. The breakfast at the sister hotel was perfect with plenty to choose from and a short walk from the B&B. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. This accommodation was perfect for our short break. It is worth noting that of a night it can be quite noisy as you’re situated above a busy street, which of course cannot be helped. Depends if you want a to sacrifice noise level for a good location. It is also worth noting that they do not turn on the A/C until April which is understandable. We were fortunate with the weather so it was quite warm in the room, but didn’t affect our stay too much.

Not close to the check in hotel. Had to lug 5 suitcases about 6 blocks down cobblestones streets through crowds of people. Room was very plain. Fridge did not really work. The bathroom had a step up and the shower step up was about 2 steps up. The shower was very skinny. I'm 5 foot and 115 lbs and had a hard time taking a shower in it, the shower head was on the middle of the shower. No shelf for your shower items, I had to put them on the shower floor. Housekeeping never restocked toilet paper, we ended buying some when we were out. They did keep our luggage for us at the check in hotel when we checked out and our train wasn't for a few hours. The location was really good,but if your looking for quiet this hotel is not for you. There is a small coffee area with cookies everyday. We walked everywhere, except to and from the train station, we took an Uber. Recommend going to the Accademia museum, wine window at Babae, Osteria Santo Spirito (make reservations!), the Ponte Vecchio bridge, Piazza de Michelangelo at sunset, City market, sit by the canal at Signorvino.

This property is located in the center part of Firenze, within 5-10 minutes walk to most attraction sites you want to visit in town. The room is in good condition and clean. Something I dislike about this place: (1) check in/out location isn’t the same as the BnB, I had a taxi dropped me off outside the BnB but only found out you have to walk to another hotel to check in and come back to the BnB with my suitcase back and forth (this can be tiring and troublesome for some people); (2) the breakfast is not complimentary. Before my arrival, I received a welcome message from the property manager also mentioned the breakfast will be served at the 7th floor of Hotel Signoria (they didn’t mentioned there is a fee for it) and I took that as a complimentary breakfast. I only found out on my check out date that they charged me 15 Europe for the breakfast. With the same price you can have much better breakfast at a decent cafe. I highly suggest you skip their breakfast. It’s overpriced and it didn’t taste that good; (3) this place gets noisy at night. There are people (probably drunken individuals) yelling out or speaking out very loud at night (after 11pm). Also, the trash truck also picking up trash and making super loud noise after midnight. This is not the property’s fault, but if you are a light sleeper, please avoid this property and find another accommodation.

Amazing hotel. The check-in process was a bit complicated but the room was wonderful with a spectacular view of the piazza.

The Best place to stay in Florence!!!

We were really pleased with B&B Republica. We highly recommend a balcony room. The building is stunning, old style with a vintage lift and beautiful features. The room was large and well equipped. We had a fridge, large bathroom, excellent air conditioning. The balcony was great to have, to relax and read and have a drink in the evenings. The location is phenomenal, we were minutes from every attraction in Florence. Genuinely loved our stay.
