The hallways were a bit noisy at night, but I blame the other guests not the hotel ... Price was wonderful considering the location was so central ... You should included how helpfulthe staff is; and how wonderful the family's restaurant is ... I hhve recently described Hotel Giglio as an authentic European Hotel, nothing flashy but clean, well run, frendly and most importantly I will stay there everytime I travel to Florence

Hotel Giglio is great- I felt very welcomed upon my arrival and taken care of immediately. My room was great and available when I arrived (which was pretty late at night). I had called ahead to make sure my late arrival would not be a problem and they assured me that my room would be available and someone would be waiting at whatever hour I arrived! ... I really felt that the staff at Hotel Giglio were taking care of me. They were able to answer all of my questions, call cabs when I needed them, and even warned me that a large group would be eating breakfast the next morning but that they would seat me in a separate room if that would be more comfortable. They helped me to figure out how to change my plane ticket and get in touch with a travel agent when that was necessary. They were very helpful and personally caring! ... Checking out was pretty easy and painless- it was exactly as I expected. ... This hotel is right in the heart of Florence- a few blocks from the Duomo and other major museums and attractions. It is pretty quiet and peaceful and is a beautiful little hotel!The staff are so friendly and personal- they all seemed to know who I was right away and were very helpful. And the breakfast was delicious and had a variety of options- in a pretty little breakfast room- a great way to start your day.

Very welcoming and helpful. I had left my paperwork at home and the receptionist did not raise a problem as they had all my details. ... The room was very quiet and cleanliness was exceptional. The bathroom was good and the double glazing kept out the road noise from outside. ... We had to leave early in the morning, so checked out the night before. No problems.

We actually arrived having just had my wife's purse snatched on the street! While this was maddening, and difficult to work out, the Giglio staff (Maria and Marco) were wonderful, and helped in every way they could. ... Our room was absolutely lovely, with a small balcony overlooking a quiet tree-lined side street. ... A little friendly oasis in the busy, vibrant city of Florence.

Friendly receptionist - happy to talk in English. ... Very pleasant - will go back ... A large old building, full of character, with very high ceilings, about fifteen minutes walk from the city centre - but quiet. Although the building is old, the interior has been thoroughly renovated in good taste, so the rooms are very comfortable.

Map on site is very poor quality whan printed and road names become difficult to read . A clearly written desciption of how to get there would have been helpful. ... It was very nice and we enjoyed our stay a great deal. ... It was a shame to leave. ... It was quick and easy to book in advance. ... Clean , beautiful and friendly.

The hotel staff was very welcoming and informative about our many options for dining and site seeing. I believe that the staff member's name was Luca and he was very up to date on every detail. ... We loved the size and friendliness of the hotel and it's staff. Very much enjoyed our stay in the fabulous city of Florence. ... Charming, friendly and warm. The staff could not have been more hospitable. We would definately return to the Hotel Giglio!

This hotel is one of the best hotels we have stayed in. Marco and his staff are the most helpful we have encountered. Their restaurant recommendations were outstanding. At every opportunity they made feel that we were one of the family. ... The best.

A fine little hotel on the second floor - friendly and welcoming, comfortable beds and bathroom, clean and accommodating. They were comfortable in English and other languages, yet let me practice my Italian helpfully.

Great hotel, not in the heart of the city so less crowded, easy walk(10 minutes or so)or bus ride into the city. Staff was excellent.

The location of the hotel is great, it's almost right where all the attractions are. ... I think you should post the directions on your website or link us to a europe map site. ... I think if you have more than 6 people to a family you should get a discount or a group discount for more than 10 people or even a discount for more than 2-3 rooms. ... The website is fine. ... The atmosphere is great, very clean, great break fast, and Maria and Marco are very friendly.

Clean and neat, left very early in the morning (4am) no lights in the hallway so it was challenging to negotiate with suitcases. ... No breakfast or coffee available due to the early departure hour.
