Room was very clean, however, small. Breakfast is 4 euros per person. Rather expensive for a roll and a glass of water. Staff was very nice. Great restaurant next door that stays open until 1 A.M. and has very good food and prices

We stayed in Florence just one night, and it was our first visit to the Hotel Montreal. The situation was good, the staff were very welcoming, our bedroom was clean and quiet, and the breakfast was excellent. All in all, a very good experience and we would certainly stay at this Hotel again, and recommend it.

We only stayed one night and looked for a cheaper hotel that was close to the train station as we had a early train out of Florence. The hotel was not the cleanest we came across, but it wasn't a pigsty either. The 7AM wake up call by the trash collectors outside in the alley was not helpful to the quietness rating. There is a bar next door that attracts people until the early AM hours, but the noise from their patrons in the alley surprisingly did not carry up to our room. I can see it being intimidating for foreigners to have to walk past that on a nightly basis though as the crowd spilled well into the street and adjoining alley. The room was on the small side and the bathroom was small as well, but if you are looking for a cheaper hotel that is relatively close to everything this is not a bad choice. We would probably look to stay somewhere else next time, but would not be bothered if we had to stay here again.

Conveniently located less than 200 meters from main train station and central bus station. Close to Florence highlights. Helpful staff, easy to find, good for a transition/travel day or for exploring Florence.

We have stayed for just 1 night. The room was really nicely decorated and comfortable. We took a room with a shared bathroom and although the bathroom was very clean in future I would only book rooms with on-suite bathrooms (personal choice). There is a pub next to the hotel and it was a bit noisy at some stage but not too much to keep you awake all night. For the price and location (very close to train station - 5 minutes walking) I would recommend this hotel.

We really enjoyed our very short stay at the Montreal, after the dreadful ho(s)tel in Rome. The Montreal was a real great place. It is excellently located, we would recommend it and we would stay there again.

Imagine hearing a dinging noise going off every few minutes for hours straight, overhearing arguments in languages you cannot understand at 2 in the morning, having a light shining in through the windows as the curtains were not darkening the room, and having pillows that resembled rocks in their hardness? That is what this room was like. I booked the room four months before my arrival. I did not expect to be given a room by the elevator, an elevator which beeped every time the door was opened or shut, an elevator which was the only means of going upstairs as there was no stairs. I also did not expect to have a public phone, with no booth or anything to quieten it only 2 meters from the room, and to have a room facing the street. I was given the worst room in the place, a room which should be given to people who book at the last minute, or come in and ask for a room. I also expected a double shared bath to be shared between two rooms, not five. To separate it, and make the double mean the amount of people who can stay in the room, it should have been written with a comma between the two to mean two separate items, not together as the lack of a comma suggests. This is the rule for English, and also for Italian. (I teach English, so I asked a co worker who teaches Italian, and she said it was supposed to be there in Italian also to separate it). It should have read: double, shared bath, not double shared bath. It was the worst experience of all the places we stayed in for four weeks, even worse than staying at the youth hostel in Venice. It was quieter in the youth hostel, believe it or not.
