    spacious room
    jacuzzi-style tub
    helpful staff
    accessibility issues
    steep stairs

    The location was perfect for exploring Florence, with many famous attractions just a short walk away. I loved the spacious room and the fantastic jacuzzi-style tub, which provided a great way to unwind after long days of sightseeing. The staff were accommodating and helped me plan a memorable vineyard tour that I'll cherish. However, accessing our room was challenging due to the steep stairs and a small elevator that wasn't very accommodating for larger luggage, making it less ideal for guests like myself with disabilities.

    historic room
    hard bed

    Great location with beautiful views

    Had an amazing stay! The room was really cool and old, like 600 years or something. Front desk was super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was perfect with a view! But man, that bed was kinda hard, and some noise from outside was annoying. Still, worth it for the sights and the breakfast vibe.

    limited storage

    We enjoyed our stay with a beautiful room that had an amazing rain shower and some great cozy spots to relax. Just a heads up, the room could use a little more storage for clothes, but overall, we had a fantastic time! 😊

    quirky layout

    I had an amazing stay! The rooftop terrace views were breathtaking, and breakfast on the terrace was one of my favorite parts. The room was surprisingly spacious and clean, but I didn't expect the layout to be so quirky. I would definitely come back!

    prime location
    responsive staff
    breathtaking views

    La Scaletta Al Ponte Vecchio is situated in a prime location, just minutes from the iconic Ponte Vecchio and a short stroll to other attractions. My room was a decent size, well-equipped with necessary amenities and a bathroom featuring excellent water pressure. The staff was responsive, addressing my air conditioning concerns promptly. The rooftop terrace provided breathing views of the city while enjoying a refreshing drink.
