Noise canceling window was great, but the one issue is since there is no AC you have to open the window for air. This property was truly great, but I would never stay here during summer months. Great location, amazing staff, secure and safe location. Would stay again!

The hosts were very friendly. I was only in the city for two nights but my host took the time to map out all the major attractions in the city, some that were away from the city center and gave me the best recommendations for where to eat(where the locals eat). Great experience!

Just beautiful, a historic Firenze hotel. The hosts could not have been kinder. The room and bath were clean and spacious. Located in a nice area for walking about getting a meal. I highly recommend Hotel Cestelli!

For a 1-star hotel, I believe we received great value.
The caretakers Allesendro and Asumi were top-notch welcoming and friendly.
No TV in room but gives one more incentive to go outside and take in the vibes of Firenze.
Our room was very clean, no air conditioning but the little electric fan seemed to do the trick. Overall, I was very pleased. Thank you Alessandro and Asumi for making our stay and experience possible.

Location is a gorgeous early medieval building in walking distance from much of Florence's most popular attractions such as the Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery. Staff were approachable, easy to talk with and courteous, even lending me a hand when my flight got cancelled.

Good value, clean & perfect location
I booked a single room with shared bathroom. The hosts were very kind and informative. Nothing was too much trouble and plenty of good advice about the local area. Yes, it isn’t great sharing Bathroom facilities and the water pressure isn’t the best for taking a shower. But all in all, taking into account the class of Hotel, the friendliness of the hosts and the cleanliness of the facilities I would definitely consider booking again. The location is perfect for the surrounding area.

Amazing querky hotel in perfect location. Could have done with air conditioning rather than fan for hot June nights but other than that can not fault anything.

Authentic, beautiful, central room
Great hotel, very clean and a beautiful room. Felt very authentically Italian and exactly the right place to experience Florence properly. Perfect location for train station and anything you'd want to see. Wi-Fi wasn't very good.
