We had three beds in a single room, the third being foldaway! I had to wipe squashed misquitos from the wall and there was loads of dust under the beds.Breakfast was great if you liked cheese and cakes. But the staff were very nice.

This is a nice hotel far enough from the tourist areas to be quiet but only a short pleasant 10 min revieside walk away. having they pool on the roof is super as it often gets very hot. The roof restaurant has great views, super food, great service and is also cheap. all in all a great pace to stay

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Kraft Hotel during our visit to Florence. All staff were very helpful and friendly and we were very well looked after. We will definitely stay at the Kraft hotel again.

Great stay. A little off the beaten path but quiet location is a big plus. Staff was great; triple was very well-sized, with totally renovated bathroom. All in all, would stay here again.

Rather pricy for the area, but price hyped up due to ongoing fair. Bed size sufficient for 1 person but small for 2. Lovely roof terrace, sad it was January. Walking distance to most 10-15min. Taxi service very good, arriving fast. Friendly staff with a bit of humour. They all spoke good english

We were very pleased with our accomodations at the Kraft Hotel. Staff were very gracious and friendly, our room very pleasant, clean, and quiet. Everything done very well, including breakfast. No complaints whatsoever. A bit removed from the hustle of the city, but close enough to get to the sights with ease.

We stayed at Kraft for four nights after having stayed at a somewhat lesser hotel in Rome. The quality differential was apparent to us immediately. The staff was courteous and helpful and very accomodating. They were also able to help in arranging for transportation for us by train to a more obscure location in Tuscany. The beds and showers were much better than they were in Rome, and we had internet access in our room through the TV (although the interface left a little bit to be desired). The facilities were also great. We were particularly happy with the pool on the roof which was very welcome in the late afternoons after we returned from sight-seeing (we found Florence to be very, very hot in mid June). The roof also had great views of the city, as the hotel is just one short block to the river, and maybe a 15 minute walk to the Uffizi. The overall location of the hotel was perfect - away from busy intersections, yet within walking distance of all of the major sights in the city. Our one criticism of the hotel was the restaurant, where we found the food to be not so good. However, the bar was nice and offered decent snacks during the day and evening. The complimentary breakfast offered by the hotel was also of higher quality than we might have expected. We would definitely recommend Kraft to friends and colleagues looking for a nice place to stay in Florence.

This is a european hotel in the classic style and tradition. As such, it is a bit understated, but the rooms are large, the staff attentive, and the public spaces very nicely and comfortably appointed. It is located in a quiet part of town, more residential and a significant walk to the sights. It also shares a campus with the U.S. Consulate, which means there are guys with Uzzi machine guns prowling the neighborhood. Needless to say, we felt the safest here of any place we stayed during our trip. If you do book, be sure to make a note to visit the rooftop patio. The views are out-of-this world! They front desk didn't remind us that it was there, and none of the guests I talked to were even aware of it, and it was the best part of our stay. My only complaint had to do with the street noise. With the wondows open, the car traffic on the back side of the hotel was very disruptive. We were there in April, so it wasn't hot and we didn't need the A/C on, so we opened the windows for the fresh air. We paid a high price, in terms of lost sleep, for this decision.

I enjoyed staying at this hotel and would recomend it to anyone. The location is not far from the center of town. (maybe a 20 minute walk along the river) The room was spacious, clean and tub was great for soaking up after a long day of walking around the city. The front desk was very helpful about getting tickets for the museum and giving directions. Good choice.

location was good and everything looked nice, but our AC sounded like a semi truck and never shot out any cold air. We were also without hot water two mornings. Breakfast was good.

The pool is VERY small. Location was walking distance to all the main sites in Santa Maria Novella area. Although there are many other hotels that are even closer to everything. The hotel was fine, but I would try a different hotel the next time.
