Introduction <img alt="Hotel entrance with the bar to the right" src="/forum/hotelreview/uploads/userreviewimages/672403/images/Rocco%20Forte%20Hotel%20Savoy.jpg" style="height:495px; width:660px">Hotel entrance with the bar to the rightI stayed 4 nights in Rocco Forte Hotel Savoy in the end of October.&nbsp; Location The location in convenient&nbsp;in the centre of Florence next to Piazza della Repubblica. Service Personally I liked the hotel; it is a small hotel and it has a personalized and friendly service.&nbsp; It has a relaxed atmosphere, and I also liked the design both in the common areas as well in the rooms.&nbsp; I used the concierge service to get tickets to the Uffizi gallery to skip the long queues.&nbsp; Room If you get a window table or sit outside, it is also a good place to do some people watching while enjoying your chianti.&nbsp;The rooms is a bit small.&nbsp; I also prefer to have shower and bathtub separate, which was not the case in my room.<img alt="" src="/forum/hotelreview/uploads/userreviewimages/672403/images/Rocco%20Forte%20Hotel%20Savoy%20Room.jpg" style="height:495px; width:660px"> Dining I also had breakfast once and some wine and a light meal in the bar/restaurant twice. The food and wine was fine.&nbsp; Gym For those of you who, like me, like to do some exercise while traveling the hotel has a fitness room. However it was rather small and not too well equipped.&nbsp; Overall <tbody> <tr> <td> <p>Since this was my first trip to Florence, I have no comparision to the other hotels mentioned in the opening post by DavidO. I only walked by the St. Regis and Westin.</p> </td> </tr> <tr> </tr> </tbody>
