Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Artists' Palace Florence enjoys a prime location, right in the heart of the historical district and very close to the Duomo. Many guests appreciate the beautiful views directly overlooking the San Lorenzo Piazza and the convenience of accessing nearby restaurants and attractions on foot. Rooms are often described as spacious with high ceilings, though some guests have noted the air conditioning can struggle in these larger rooms. The in-room Nespresso coffee maker and tea service is a much-appreciated touch.

a somewhat underwhelming stay

undersized air conditioning shoddy repairs

the location was acceptable since most attractions were within walking distance.

the air conditioning struggled to cool the roomwith a high ceiling. i also noticed the bathroom needed some repairs and previous repair attempts looked sloppy. a small table was the only provided surface, and i could have used more.
