This spring I spent a few days in Florence, attending a meeting, but having some time to relax, too. I remebered the name of this hotel from a night I spent there many years ago, and having found a good offer in internet, I decided to give it a new try. This turned out to be a good choice. The...

Not only was the staff quite possibly the rudest, most unaccommodating that I have EVER come across in all my years of traveling the rooms were cramped and filthy. I have traveled quite a bit in my life and our experience at Hotel Palazzo Benci almost ruined the entire trip to Italy. The wireless internet is touch and go, and... More

Excellent location, a 5 min walk to the central station of Florence, extremely friendly and helpfull staff and most important an excellent value for money. Internet access is free and available in rooms and lobby and clean rooms. Can be a bit noisy from outside at times though with the church bells More

We were impressed with the location of Hotel Benci and the size of the property situated in the heart of Florence, near the train station. The breakfast buffet was good and included in the price. The rooms were a little outdated and the bathroom was small but functional. The only reason we didn't give it five stars for the price... More

The room was small but you don't go to Italy to stay in your room. The location is smack in the middle of all the sights to see. Just a few minutes to the Duomo. I would stay here again. More

We stayed at this "luxury" hotel for 1 night because our reserved hotel room at the other side of the street was with a problem. At palazzo Benci the bedroom was clean and confortable but small, good and clean toilet, fantastic breakfast in a luxurious surrounding. But the staff were arrogant and had a "I'm superior than you" air. It... More
