I stayed 4 nights in Rocco Forte Hotel Savoy in the end of October.
Hotel entrance with the bar to the right
Location
The location in convenientin 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. It has a relaxed atmosphere, and I also liked the design both in the common areas as well in the rooms. I used the concierge service to get tickets to the Uffizi gallery to skip the long queues.
Room
The rooms is a bit small. I also prefer to have shower and bathtub separate, which was not the case in my 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.
Dining
I also had breakfast once and some wine and a light meal in the bar/restaurant twice. The food and wine was fine.
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.
Overall
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. |
