Our family has stayed at this property 3 times in the last 3 years and I have referred a number of friends and acquaintances. It is best considered an apartment rental than a hotel. The spacious accommodations and the reasonable rates make this the ideal place for a family to stay when in Florence. It is conveniently located in San Niccolo directly across the Arno from the heart of Florence's center. It is a 15 minute leisurely walk along the Arno River to Ponte Vecchio or just 5-7 minutes to the closer Ponte alle Grazie which is only a couple minutes from the Basilica Santa Croce. The small but adequate kitchen made the stay even more economical and more intimite as we enjoyed shopping at local food shops allowing us to have breakfast and snacks in our apartment instead of having to go out for every meal. The maid service was a couple times a week but this only made the experience more private and there was always someone at the front desk in the mornings to speak with if there was anything we needed. The property is clean and well maintained. Some of the modern amenities are a bit outdated like the television in the room but there is wireless internet. There is no parking if you arrive by rental car but I would not venture to drive in Florence anyway. Taxi is the most convenient way to get around if your destination is too far to walk but most sites were within 20 minutes and walking the streets of Florence is definitely a part of the experience. A walk up the hill behind the property to the Piazza Michelangelo and even further up to the basilica San Miniato al Monte is good exercise and offers beautiful vistas of Florence. Getting taxi service required a little instruction from the hotel manager. If you call from the telephone in your room the taxi service is alerted to your location and usually arrives within 3-5 minutes so be ready to go when you call. The pleasantness of our stay was highlighted by the friendliness and accessibility of the hotel manager who spoke English and always had a smile and helpful tips for our stay.

My husband and I spent a week at the Serristori Palace while we explored Florence and Tuscany. The location of the hotel, a ten minute walk across the Arno to the Duomo, was outstanding. Our apartment was spacious and we had a gorgeous view of Florence from our balcony. Our neighborhood had many wonderful restaurants, a great bakery, and small but well-stocked grocery stores. The hotel staff delivered excellent service and helped us navigate bus routes and locate great restaurants and gelato. Serristori Palace and our week in Florence were the highlight of our month-long trip to southern Europe.

We spent 2 weeks in Serristori Palace in July 2010 . Great hospitality.Great owner. So many thanks to Daniela .

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at the Serristori Palace - Signoria apartment. It was on the first floor with a balcony and we had a lovely view of the Arno. It was across the Arno from the Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio which we felt was nice because it was quieter and peaceful. The apartment was well serviced with all the amenities to cook and serve, it was well maintained and very clean. Daniella at the front office was wonderful and spoke good English. She was very helpful and courteous. You end up spending much lesser than at the hotels because you don't have to depend on room service and laundry services because you can do everything yourself. We will definitely go back there and stay longer as our trip was very short.
