The hotel and room were spotless and had everything you needed. The staff, in particular Alina at reception, were wonderful and very accommodating! We also found the location of the hotel to be perfect and easy to walk everywhere from.

I had a wonderful stay at A Glimpse Hotel in Florence. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the friendly staff and immediately felt well taken care of. The hotel is quaint, spotless, and beautifully maintained, which made it feel both cozy and comfortable. The location is perfect centrally located and easy to walk everywhere, yet still quiet and relaxing. Breakfast was really good, with plenty of fresh options to start the day right. Overall, this hotel felt like a hidden gem. I truly enjoyed my stay and will absolutely be staying here again the next time I’m in Florence.

Close to Duomo, very nicely decorated, excellent breakfast, friendly staff. Only thing that we didn’t love was the air conditioning didn’t work very well and the room was a bit too warm for a truly relaxing sleep.

Great walkable location near main attractions. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. A small hotel with breakfast included that suits a one- or two-night stay in Florence. Paid parking is just steps away.
