Overlooking the Ponte Vecchio, the Hotel Degli Orafi offers a prime location for travelers seeking easy access to Florence’s historic monuments. The hotel’s slightly disorderly antique décor it is warm and reassuring at the same time. Many rooms have luscious views of the Arno, and a few have their own terraces. One in particular, the room 414, has its own terrace overlooking the river and the Ponte Vecchio and it is famous to be ‘The Room with a View’ (as featured in James Ivory’s film).

Amazing location, steps from the Ponte Vecchio, the room, services and amenities were FiveStar. The staff was helpful, efficient and friendly. Rooftop bar and breakfast buffet room were both spectacular! Two elevators is a critical bonus. The bathroom was the best I experienced in ( tub/shower floor was a bit slippery). The bottle of Rose sparkling upon arrival was classy. Sono molte grato!

This hotel was a great find. Located right on the river near the Ponte Vecchio Bridge. They upgraded us to a suite which was large with a comfortable bed and sitting area. They even provided night shirts. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. One of the best features was a bar located on the top floor. I had an outdoor seating area with a view of the skyline, absolutely beautiful. It was also an easy walk to the train station. My only regret is that we didn’t stay here longer.

This was our second stay in Hotel Degli Orafi - both December 2024 and December 2023. Each visit was superb. Of course, the location is so convenient to the Uffizi and the Ponte Vecchio. We found the staff to be excellent, very professional and very accommodating. The building is fun to explore and discover its history. We loved spending time in the evening in the rooftop lounge with its magnificent views. Breakfasts were wonderful, plenty of coffee made to order. We will happily return next time we are in Florence.

We enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Degli Orafi very much. The staff was very friendly and courteous. Our room was very spacious and we had an incredible view of the Ponte Vechio bridge and the Arno River. This hotel is centrally located to the Florence city center which makes walking everywhere very easy.

The hotel is very well situated and the staff is great. However we were put in a room in a part of the building which is clearly not a part of the original hotel. Some of the walls were dirty and the shower booth was very basic with broken gasket. Not at all to the norm of a 4 stars hotel. This room should have been renovated.
