This wellcoming hotel was completely renovated in 2007 in order to offer a warm and elegant atmosphere. Our motto is: modernity in the classical tradition of Tuscany.
The public areas are on the third floor and the characterised by a modern but at the same time classical design.
The breakfast room, where a tasty buffet breakfast is served in the morning, is absolutely cosy and unique. The bar lounge together with the common room, with its sofas, books, newspapaers, Tv and internet access are the ideal places to stop and relax.
The hotel offers 2 types of rooms based on the size: Standard and Superior.
Some of the Superior also have a comfortable living room, some look out on the Cathedral, other on the roofs of Florence and some others have private balconies.
The atmosphere is warm and cosy with pieces of ancient furniture together with modern details. Bathrooms follow the same logic: spacious, functional and comfortable.

This hotel is situated in the middle of the city, on a narrow street in a long line of other hotels. We did not expect a view, and were surprised by the sight of the nearby Duomo from our balcony, along with an interesting courtyard.
The hotel was a little more "budget" than we'd imagined when we booked it - we were thinking "boutique." The air conditioning was not working and it had more of a youth hostel feel. There were school groups there as well. Still, the room was very large with ample storage.
I would recommend this hotel for students on a budget. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was continental and the common areas were tastefully decorated.
Many restaurants and shops are within steps of the hotel. It is also very close to Firenze Centrale, the train station. If you are dragging wheeled luggage be aware that there are cobblestone streets, very narrow, crowded sidewalks and some streets may be under construction. You can easily walk it, but if you're at all tired from traveling, it might be easier to hail a cab.
We stayed here for 2 nights in May, 2008. The website is www.kursonia.com
