I found this hotel over the internet and stayed there to visit Florence. However the hotel is about 20-25min from the train station, which can be annoying in a rainny day as I got there, and taking the bus wouldn't make it any easier as bus stops are quite far. Room was comfortable and staff was friendly.

Location not the best - 30mins outside the historic centre but taxi only 8euro or so.
However I won't walk along the river at night as there were several prostitutes selling their wares.
Room comfortable. AC worked a little loudly. Breakfast standard Italian.
Staff at reception could have been a lot more helpful - we asked what sites were worth seeing in Prato and she told us to go to Florence! However the duomo, complete with Fra Lippi's amazing frescoes (get the audio guide) is a major highlight of my tuscan holiday. The other churches in Prato and the prison are all worth walking by.

In particular the resturants and pubs had a great atmosphere.

We stayed at the Wall Art Hotel on June 27th, 2008 as a part of our 10-day bus tour of Italy.

The hotel is located in Prato, probably about 30 minutes or so outside of Florence. The decor of the hotel is super-modern, which I love. The lobby is below street level, along with the dining room. There are two small elevators to take you up to your room.

The rooms are also very modern, and also very spacious. There was room for the bed, several closets, drawers, and storage units, and a full-sized table with chairs. Having all of this room was super-convenient because this was our second-to-last night in Italy and we needed the space to do our re-packing before we left.

The bathroom was also fairly large in comparison to others we'd seen. The only thing was that the fan seemed to turn on automatically with the light, but stayed on even after the light was turned off. Hmmmm...

Our tour included dinner at the hotel. Unfortunately, this was terrible. The meal started with a serving of lasagna. Then the main entree was potatoes, green beans, and some really rare roast beef. Dessert was creme caramel. After our terrible dinner we decided to walk a little ways in order to find a snack and some soda. We ended up walking a long way and really had no luck. There is nothing around the hotel, or at least nothing that stays open until 9:00pm.

Overall, this was a nice, clean, spacious, and modern hotel.

A really nice hotel for a good price! Rooms were very nice and clean. The only thing I didn't like was the sound from the bathroomfan. Breakfast was good, staff was very friendly. A little bit away from Florence but easy to get there if you travel with a car like we did.
