Location is close to everything but away from major loud streets. Room was large and very comfortable. Dimitry is very helpful and even walked us to the nearest taxi station which is very close. Great bargain for the great location!!

Excellent facility. Dimitri was so friendly and bent over backwards to please. Large well appointed immaculately clean room with good breakfast. 800 yr old building. Just minuites from all historic area sites and shopping. Excellent restaurants also a few steps to just walking minutes away. Highest recommendation! A+++

Stayed here with my boyfriend for just a night but had such a lovely experience! Communication was great and the instructions for our late check in were easy to follow. The room was clean and comfortable and the surrounding area was peaceful while still having lots of dining options and being easily walkable to all of the sights and museums around the duomo. We will definitely stay again when we find ourselves back in Florence!

Fantastic B&B! Very nice owners and in a great location. Very affordable as well. Breakfast included from 7:30-9:30 which is a great deal but would wish for it to be extended a bit longer.

Our stay was amazing! We felt well taken care of and the property was very flexible with our check in time. The location is very central allowing us to easily walk everywhere in Florence. Our room was very spacious and comfortable and exactly what we needed for our 3 night stay. Breakfast was good too!

This B&B is in a perfect location for walking around Florence. You are near enough to most of the famous sights and there are many good eating places nearby. Luciano, the proprietor, had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable.

The hotel is at the center of everything, extremely convenient. Room is spacious and exactly like the pictures. It is amazing to know the building is 800 years old, which makes us feel so special about our experience. The breakfast is awesome. We loved the place and will come back again.

My husband and I had a delightful stay at Locanda Orchidea. Luciano runs a great B&B. The rooms were spotless and we enjoyed the daily breakfasts. Luciano was flexible in check-in since we arrived late and he was very helpful in providing logistical information. The B&B was in a very convenient location. I would recommend this B&B to anyone visiting Florence.

We had a wonderful stay. The room was spacious and comfortable in a charming historic building. The manager stayed a bit late for us so could be there for our check in. The area is wonderful with many quality restaurants nearby and super close to the center. One thing to note: This is not a B&B. There is no breakfast offered. While it is true that breakfast was not mentioned in our reservation, there are pictures of breakfast in the listing and, by definition, B&B is bed and breakfast, so we were a bit confused by that. The gentleman explained that the hotel is under new management and no breakfast was offered. I think Expedia should remove B&B from the title (The hotel plaque on the building does not have B&B) and remove the breakfast photos as well. That would clear everything up. Please, do not let the lack of breakfast stop you. This is a wonderful place to stay! And there is an amazing bakery/coffee bar a block away ;)

Love the property, very clean and beautiful, very well kept for been a 800 year building. Restaurant right in front of the hotel and shops. Close to everything. Love Luciano, very attentive and really good communication for our late arrival. Good breakfast. One of the most wonderful stays. Absolutely nothing bad to say.

The location is perfect, and the tiny hotel is perfect too, lovely spacious rooms, well-appointed and with excellent bathrooms. All the charms of an old historic building but every modern convenience as well. And the staff could not be more helpful and kind. My family stayed here in 1996, and we loved it then, but it has been very much upgraded since then. I would never think of staying anywhere else in Florence.
