This is the oldest hotel in Florence, already in the 1300's, it was an inn well known to Italian and foreign travellers. It is the hotel's long and illustrious past which have given rise to its' reputation today as an eccentric and inexpensive hotel in Florence.

The 78 rooms are dispersed throughtout this 14th century Renaissance building, no two rooms are alike and as a consequence it is our policy not too show them on this website - we do not wish to flatter to deceive as our rooms do differ greatly in terms of size.

The old staircase, the welcoming dining room used for breakfast, the 2 elevators, the furnishings - furniture, rugs and period ornaments. Recently the famous Italian Film Director Dario Argento the master of horror recorded a few scenes in our hotel lobby...

Apart from the Hotel's location very near the Ponte Vecchio, our biggest selling point is something that no other 3 star hotel Florence can boast - we have our billiard room and host professional tournaments. Use of the billiard table is strictly for guests of the Hotel Porta Rossa Florence.
