A clean, well-maintained B&B with huge bathrooms by any standard. Our 3-bedroom suite was well furnished and very comfortable. But...it was really loud at night. Perhaps the location (right by the Vespucci bridge) was the issue, but unless you are a heavy sleeper (ear plugs) or are a group planning to stay up late, the sound of cars, trucks, scooters and definitely police vehicles never stopped throughout the night. The perk of this building's solid construction is also a downside as the sound reverberated from the street, through the windows and curtains and made it tough to sleep. I can't speak to the rooms in the front, and its a shame because the facility is tastefully decorated, offers a great view of the Arno and is located in walking distance to just about all of the major sites, not too mention the host was extremely nice and helpful, but unless you're a heavy sleeper, I have to reserve a recommendation.

Beautiful location on the Arno river with views a balcony in main suite area and bedroom. Very clean, very pleasant. Wonderful central location to Duomo and Uffizi and view of Ponte Vecchio. Highly recommend. Very noisy due to streets surrounding. Bring earplugs for a more restful sleep. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful time! The place was incredibly warm and the view was incredible. The location is excellent because it is right on the river and a two block walk from the Ufizzi. Franchesco, the innkeeper, was extremely nice and accommodating. It was an all around great experience. I would recommend it to anyone!

Residenza Vespucci was fantastic! We nearly shortened our week in Tuscany in order to spend more time in our suite. We had the corner suite, and it was amazing. Very spacious with amazing views from balconies on two sides of the building. Our host was very good to us, spoke English, helped us with museums and taxis, and more. Well worth the price. Very spacious, excellent location. This place is a must! Absolutely cannot say enough about this place!

We loved the Residenza Vespucci!! The rooms were beautiful with balconies overlooking the river. The location was great - an easy walk from the train station and to all the sites. The owner was very helpful - making last minute reservations for us at the Accademia and giving us a great restaurant suggestion. The continental breakfast could have been improved with the addition of fresher fruit and perhaps some fresh local breads. Otherwise an excellent stay.
