When you arrive at the door of the dark building in a busy street and find out that you have to take an old elevator to the second floor to reach the reception, you think you chose the wrong place. But that's not the case. The Casci operates very efficiently in the upper half of an old building right next to the heart of the main attractions of Florence. The personnel are extremely helpful; they even wrote to us about 2 weeks before our trip (when we made the reservation) to check if we wanted to reserve tickets to the main museums in Florence. Had we not done that, we might have not seen Michelangelo’s David and the Boticelli paintings because there were people queuing for hours. We were two couples with two small children, and the two triple rooms we were assigned were spacious and clean. The air conditioners worked perfectly, and the rooms were very well sound-isolated. Overall, it was a very nice surprise!

This is rated a 2-star hotel, and it shows. Sure, the building is historic and interesting and the staff very friendly, but the rooms are sparsely furnished and fairly basic. Breakfast is OK but uninspired. The location is good, right on the tourist bus route and within walking distance afo lot of places you will be visiting, and there are loads of (fairly ordinary) restaurants in the vicinity.

2 rooms, a double and a triple. Smallist bathroom in our double I've seen anywhere in europe, but the one in the triple was actually large. The rooms and hotel very clean. Hotel occupies the 3rd floor of a commercial building. Some original frescoes from the 1500's still in the reception area. Outstanding location. Great staff.

Hotel is very convenient to the major sites- about a 10 minute walk from the train station. There is an excellent tourist information office just a few doors away. The breakfast is sufficient. The staff is very helpful and friendly. We tried a restaurant that was in most of the guide books- Cafaggi- Via Guelfa- unless you are fluent in Italian- STAY AWAY- the service was so bad we left after the first course. Our worst experience in two weeks of travel.

My wife and I loved the Casci and the friendly staff. Our room was very comfortable, the bathtub was huge, breakfast was terrific, and the family that owned and managed the hotel were very caring and helpful. Their location is superb, too! We were on our second honeymoon, after 20 years of marriage, and the Casci was a hotel we would try to return to if we are lucky enough to do another Italy trip.

The room was clean and certainly adequate by European standards. (We found most rooms to be fairly small.) The staff was accommodating although not particularly warm, with the exception of Paolo who was talkative and helpful in recommending restaurants and making reservations for us. We were able to get soft boiled eggs for breakfast which, although a small thing, was nice since hot items (we later found) are not available at all hotels. I would not characterize the Casci as posh by any standard, but definitely good value for the money.

This is the second time I have been to Firenze, this hotel was much better than the last time I went for less money. Excellent location! We even had the room facing the street, and the sound proofing was amazing, very quiet room. I would return here if I ever returned to Firenze again.

Hotel Casci is special for its warm hospitality of the owners and the location.

The bathrooms were wonderful but the beds were hard,and the double was so small we could barely turn around. Also, the pictures looked much better than the real thing. The breakfast was great though. Unfortunately we won't stay again but, if you are on a budget it is in the middle of everything.
