B&B la Nannina

This is a very small operation on the first floor of a large apar**ent building, located very close to the Florence train station (why I selected it). The staff is great – when it’s available – the one problem with my stay here. One afternoon I walked out of my room to get a utensil, and a sudden gust of wind slammed the door shut, locking me out of my room for 30 minutes. This is one of a few times that I needed something and there was no one around to help. Apart from that, everything else was absolutely perfect. A small kitchen full of goodies was available 24/7, which I took full advantage of. The room was a decent size and comfortable, though the bathroom was laughably small, everything worked out well, including the rock-solid WIFI (once I logged into the right network). The staff was very helpful and polite … when they were there, that is. If you choose to stay here, a suggestion: Make absolutely sure you’ve worked out how to check in, access the property, and plan when you’ll be staying in the room and what your needs will be. You won’t always have someone around to attend to your needs when you may need a little help. Considering that, my five-star rating of this review feels a bit of a gift.

Great clean B & B in perfect location to train and touring Florence! Spacious room, but bathroom was very cramped. European standard I guess. Air conditioning worked well. There is a train right outside your room so if you’re a light sleeper it could bother you. But with AC running it was never a bother to us. Staff friendly and helpful.

We wanted to use Florence as a base for 7 nights whilst visiting Pisa and Siena with relative ease. As La Nannina is very close to the massive train station Santa Maria Novella, the bus station and even the tram service, the prices seemed very reasonable too, so decision was easily made. All those reviews that you read that talk highly of a spotlessly clean property, attention to personal requirements and the efficiency and friendliness of Andrea, Joseph and Roxanne do not lie or exaggerate! You enter through locked security gates, climb one floor to this delightful b&b (there is a lift if required). Only 4 bedrooms with the breakfast area a few steps away from your room. Excellent soundproofing, what's not to love 🥰. The team are always there to help, advise and are so very personable that we always enjoyed our chats and were very sorry to have to leave at the end of our stay. It felt like we were saying goodbye to friends....Because we had landed later in the evening, we chose to take a taxi to the b&b but chose to take the tram on our departure which was ridiculously easy and only 3 euros for the two of us. A very well situated accommodation, very clean and comfy, brekkie included, lots of helpful advice and amusing anecdotes so defo top marks on all counts !
