Hotel Montebello Splendid – Firenze

Very nice stay over new year. Good location in a quiet area away from the hustle of the city. Breakfast was good and plenty of food available. Very nice staff. Only downside was that the room was excessively hot and although the hotel helped with a fan, it made sleep a bit uncomfortable.

Stayed here on our trip through Italy. The first impression was nice. That ended at the barely friendly front desk guy. In general the room was nice. The issue was the bath room. The bath tub shower combo is straight out of the 80s. That would not have been the worst thing other than it was filthy. I let the staff know and expected something done. I was told latter that it was just old deal with it. I am pretty stubborn so I clean one of the jets to show it was not old just dirty. The front desk guy that told me it was old tried to back track after I showed pictures but said he cold not do anything as the room was pre-paid. They did take off one meal.

We enjoyed the beauty and location of this hotel. It was a short walk to restaurants and shopping. We dined at the hotel restaurant our first night and had good food and wonderful service. Massimo gave us a wine lesson and was a delight to meet. Thank you for a great stay in Florence.
