Forte16 View & SPA

Excellent stay for my daughters birthday. Short walk into the city centre, but far away enough to get a good nights sleep. Spa facilities were amazing and very clean. Staff always helpful and friendly, even communicating before my arrival. Breakfast has a great choice, catering for everyone and the lady serving breakfast was always very friendly and attentive. Bedrooms were spacious and clean. The views from the rooftop were amazing, and the private jacuzzi session on the rooftop was a perfect way to end our trip. Would recommend and return!

The roof top terraces make this small boutique hotel shine. Stayed here a year ago and it was the main reason I returned. View of sunset behind Il Duomo is breathtaking. Even at night, it's wonderful because the Il Duomo is well-lit. You sit with a glass of wine to toast Il Duomo, Firenze and yourself for really being here Also big windows that open onto a garden courtyard, so very quiet, with comfy bed and pillows. And a small kitchenette for making coffee or eating in. Bonus, while hotel does not have a bar, the desk sells wine and beer. Staff were very pleasant and friendly. It is just on the edge of the oldest part of Firenze, close to Santa Croce, so many things are easily walkable. But, even better, it's at the beginning of a lived-in neighborhood. So less tourists and more locals out and about.

The bedding was so comfortable thanks! Also loved the pool. The hotel was also close to the museums, about 15 to 20 minutes. The view was incredible. The staff overall was great and grateful for Anna’s kindness at breakfast.

I had a wonderful experience at the hotel! The team was incredibly friendly and always willing to help. The breakfast ladies were amazing - they were always smiling and happy to have a chat. The breakfast atmosphere felt just like home, very cozy and welcoming. The swimming pool was clean and the water was warm, making it a perfect place to relax. The spa area was also well maintained, ensuring a pleasant and enjoyable time.

Small boutique hotel with 43 or so rooms. Best part were three roof-top patios - very spacious, lots of seating areas and great views of the Duomo and the hills the other way. Great for morning coffee or evening glass of wine. They were mostly empty so could always find a quiet nook. Cleaning staff re-arranged our room so it was better suited for two singles. And I thank them because it gave us extra space as well as our own little nooks. Enjoyed the opportunity to have a massage. Very glad that we had "garden-view" as it was very quiet. Location was very good for visiting attractions in Florence and also for finding a local neighbourhood that wasn't quite as touristy.
