My room was a bit gloomy

Beautiful building and perfect position

Authentic Florentine experience outside of the tourist bubble, yet easy to access to sites of interest. Charming staff and beautiful garden setting.

Quirky interior. Beautiful view of the gardens from the terrace at breakfast. Locayed away from the busy centre.

Cecile who hosted us was just divine. This hotel is the perfect escape from the busy side of Florence though so close to everything. A perfect reprieve and a stunning hotel

Breakfast was somewhat limited, with no hot options, and the bed was a bit uncomfortable for my wife.

Beautifully located in the heart of the old town. The room was spacious with high ceilings, and the terrace overlooking the garden was an absolute gem.

Very nice. Close to restaurants and things to see in Florence. Very quiet street and terrace overlooked beautiful gardens. Staff was great and very accommodating. Wished we had been able to walk the gardens but understand the owners privacy. Great!!

Nothing, it delivered exactly what was described.

The property is set in stunningly spectacular grounds, with beautiful views from the terrace and the garden room in which we stayed. Large and spacious, in a quiet location but within easy reach of restaurants and cultural sites. The complimentary breakfast and pastries/ coffee throughout the day was a lovely gesture and welcome after a long day sightseeing.

Very unique and beautiful!

Fabulous hotel in a beautiful location on the quieter side of the city but near to all sights. Huge room, comfy bed (also huge!), spotlessly cleaned every day. Excellent breakfast and complimentary cakes/drinks. We loved going to sleep with the owls hooting and waking up to bird song. There are lovely terraces to sit and admire the private gardens. The staff are friendly, professional and helpful. It was the perfect place to celebrate our wedding anniversary!

Could be a bit more taken care of

Beautiful terrasse with view onto the garden

Nothing really! Maybe a dining option but there are so many good local restaurants that it’s not a problem!

Amazing location, a bit out of main part of town but not far - enough to be nice and peaceful. Part of an historic Palazzo, it really has the wow factor. Gardens are amazing to sit and view with a glass of wine.

We stayed in the annex on the ground floor, where we found noise from the road (loud voices and vehicles ) woke us several times during the small hours of the night.

The surroundings were very grand, being part of a privately owned palazzo, with a beautiful first floor terrace looking over extensive gardens. The staff at Ad Astra are very helpful and friendly. They speak fluent English and made us feel very welcome. They were happy to help with tourist information, advice and restaurant recommendations and even reservations.

Great location and very good breakfast

All good

Loved its quiet location in manically busy Florence. Our room had beautiful view overlooking private garden. Very large comfy bed. Good bathroom. Lovely old fashioned feel with high ceilings and nice parquet floors. Nice lounge to sit in during the day or evening. Excellent continental breakfast. Really helpful staff.

Honestly, nothing! This isn't a hotel with full service reception, bar etc, it's more what in England would be called a private or a townhouse hotel. But we just loved it and had an amazing time in Florence

We could not recommend this accommodation enough. The building is beautiful and the terraces overlook the amazing gardens. The location is very convenient to all of the major tourist sites - 15-25 minutes walk to everything - yet the street is quiet and the local restaurants are fantastic. The staff are unfailingly helpful and the breakfast delicious. I will never stay anywhere else in Florence!

Quite eclectic decorating eg our room had two Ken dolls on the shelf. Cute humour I suppose

Great location with a beautiful private park in the back owned by the owners who share the building. Unfortunately guests can’t access it ??? Like having a Lamborghini and not driving it.

There wasn’t anything that we did not like about the property

The property was immaculate and beautiful grounds

Stayed in September 2024

Since the hotel is older, there were some quirks but nothing worth noting. The hotel does have an old lift, which we used for our luggage - otherwise make sure you’re able to take stairs. Location was a little further away - at least a 10-15 minute walk to get to attractions.

This hotel is very cute! It is located next to a beautiful garden. Hotel staff gave us a warm welcome at entry gates during check in. Hotel provided complimentary drinks and snacks. The room (and bathroom) was very spacious and clean. We also appreciated the chic decor.
