Hotel Ferrucci

The bed was very comfortable and the staff were mostly very helpful. View out onto the Arno and roof top terrace available (but a bit cold this time of year)

It’s much further away from the centre than I’d realised so what we saved on the hotel price we spent on taxis as it was cold and wet so not a pleasant walk - in summer we probably would have walked it (about 30 mins from duomo) The decor was clearly very beautiful once but is now very tired and hasn’t been well looked after when completing work (beautiful fresco on our ceiling with a big area of polyfilla around a smoke alarm in the middle of it). We couldn’t get the heater to work the first night so was very cold - you have to switch to the snowflake symbol, not the sun, to get hot air (?!) The facilities are very basic - not even a kettle in the room - and they had a problem with the kitchen so we couldn’t get breakfast there as we’d booked.
