Pros: - very modern decoration - hote room eas clean and tidy - reasonable room rate - good room size at European hotel's standard Cons: - not too close to city centre. It takes 10 - 15 minutes' walk - could be very noisy if your room is at the main street but not at the back - limited gym... More

We stayed at Athenaeum Hotel for 2 nights. The rooms were clean and comfortable. This hotel is not in the heart of Florence but everything is a 10 to 15 minute walk away. We enjoy walking so this was not an issue for us. The staff was not overly friendly but helpful. The breakfast was very good with plenty of... More

My friends and I spent 3 nights here on our Italy tour. The hotel is very modern and the rooms were decent size. It was very convenient to the Duomo and other attractions like Piazza della Signoria, Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio. We did use the bikes for the afternoon. The breakfast was very good and they were very helpful recommending... More

We stayed here for 6 nights during a vacation in Tuscany. We had a room with a European king on the rear of the building. We had a small balcony and did not hear any street noise, only heard the fountain in the courtyard. The bathroom was tight but adequate. The USB ports for charging phones was useful. The hotel...

This hotel is not central. On checking in we were told of a ridiculous Firenze Tourist Tax of four euro per night per person. The reception staff were indifferent and at times rude, it seemed that when you needed to find out information it was a real effort for them. The bar is rarely manned and we had to ask... More

My husband and I were given this weekend away in this hotel as a present. I must say that it was quite central, the classic room was quite small but had all the necessary facilities. Quite noisy, being on a main road. €23 a day for parking. €4 a day per head for tourist tax!! Buffet breakfast nothing particular about... More

The front desk, bar and restaurant staff were exceptionally welcoming and helpful (I was travelling on my own and needed taxis, directions etc.) and the hotel is ideally situated for business locations as well as walking down to the Ponte Vecchio and Duomo (approx 15-20 mins). Room of a very good size for a "standard" and a handy fridge with... More

Hotel Athenaeum is the perfect hotel for your visit to Florence. After my fist visit there last week, I can't go back and I can't wait to recommend it to my family and friends. This hotel has it all -- it has the most amazing breakfast (fresh breads, pastries, meats, fruits), wonderful bar, exceptional restaurant, hotel gym and more. BUT... More

My husband and I came to this hotel on our honeymoon to Italy. On the surface, this hotel is modern and artsy, and wowed us 20-somethings...at first. Although the rooms are somewhat small, the decor and use of space was good. Looks aside, I would not recommend that anyone stay at this hotel. As a whole, the staff was either... More
