Excellent B&B convenient to tram service. It was great to stay in a quiet residential area with easy access to the city centre. Rosella is a wonderful host and was able to give us insider tips on where to eat and where to visit.

stayed from 09/10/2024 to 09/13/2024

chloe

My sister and I stayed here for four nights during our trip to Florence and we had an absolutely LOVELY stay. Rossella is so kind and welcoming and her breakfasts are fantastic! The room was very cozy and Rossella was a great hostess making sure everything was well during our stay. We had an early morning one of the days we stayed with her and she left us a breakfast to take with us. We really enjoyed getting to chat with her and cannot recommend staying with her enough!

stayed from 06/07/2024 to 06/11/2024

The answer from the host:
Thank you so much dear Chloe! It was a real pleasure to host you and your sister! You are lovely girls! I will come to visit you in Arizona One day! A big big hug to you!

brian

The whole establishment is very clean and neat. It is conveniently located a short tram ride away from the S.M. Novella train station and Centro Storico. I was also able to find my way back by bus fairly easily each evening from wherever I ended up during my daily explorations of Florence. Rossella clearly enjoys hosting her guests and we had interesting conversations each morning over the lovely breakfasts that she had prepared. And to top it all off, she even helped me improve my less-than-perfect Italian language skills and provided some excellent suggestions on worthwhile ways to spend my time in Florence. I would definitely stay there again during future trips.

stayed from 09/11/2023 to 09/14/2023

The answer from the host:
Thank you so much for the kind words. I hope to host you again in the future!

nathan

Rosella was a tremendous host, I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a comfortable stay away from the crowds while in Florence. The room was impeccably tidy, and had everything we needed for our 3 day stay. Rosella was super helpful with giving us recommendations for things to see and places to eat in the area. She even prepared a lovely breakfast for us each morning. She also has an adorable cat.

stayed from 07/10/2023 to 07/12/2023

The answer from the host:
Thank you Nathan 🙂

enza

Rosetta, the owner, made my stay so relaxing and comfortable. She made sure I was fed and offered me so much for breakfast. And she made my room exceptionally clean every day. I will be back.

stayed from 06/16/2023 to 06/24/2023

The answer from the host:
Dear Enza thank you so much for your kind words. You will be always welcome in my home. See you soon 🌻

rossella

Rossella was a wonderful host! She was very helpful, her breakfasts were amazing and so were all the conversations we had. The room was great and we were well catered for. The location is great as it was a quick tram ride (or a nice walk) into the center. Would 100% stay again. She was definitely a big plus to our stay in Florence and we'll remember it well.

stayed from 04/25/2023 to 04/28/2023

The answer from the host:
Thank you so much Conall. It was a great pleasure also for me to have wonderful guests like you and Ife! I will have good memories of you two. I Hope you will be my guests again in the future and promise to contact you when I come to England! All the best to you!

christian

Lovely, elegantly decorated gem. Our host, Rossella, was nothing short of wonderful and very helpful. She gave us lots of tips about where to go in Florence, places to visit, where to grab some food etc.

stayed from 04/12/2023 to 04/14/2023

The answer from the host:
Thank you so much for your kind review Chris! I Wish all the best for Andrea and You and really hope to have you again in the future at Casa del Giramondo! Hugs and kisses from Florence!

rosella

Rosella is so nice and welcoming that we were sad when we left. She speaks perfect English and helped us with everything we needed. And the price is the best in the city! The only con is that you need to take a tram or bus to the city center, but it costs 1.5€ and runs pretty frequently.

stayed from 09/07/2022 to 09/09/2022

The answer from the host:
Thank you Ron! It was a great pleasure to have you in my b&b! I Hope to see you again in the future!

romain

Very pleasant stay at Casa del Giramondo B&B in Florence. The owner is very friendly and attentive to her guests. The city center is quickly accessible by tram.

stayed from 05/05/2024 to 05/08/2024

The answer from the host:
Merci beaucoup Romain! Grazie mille!

adrien

We stayed for 4 days as a couple and we loved it. The room is clean and well maintained, the place is quiet and the tram station is only a 5-minute walk away. Our host was very caring with us and gave us some extra tips on places to visit. The breakfasts were quite generous and once again we were delighted. We highly recommend it.

stayed from 10/13/2023 to 10/17/2023

The answer from the host:
Thank you Adrien! It was a pleasure to host you! I hope to host you again in the future! Many hugs!

Thanks for so much kindness, it was very good to find a clean and comfortable room to rest. The bathrooms very clean. The charming lady. We would definitely come back to this place in the future.

The answer from the host:
Grazie mille professore! A presto

franco

I was somewhat skeptical reading so many positive reviews... and after our experience, I must say that this place is everything that was mentioned and more! The distance to the center is not a problem at all, on the contrary, the tram passes very frequently and arrives in 12 minutes, the cleanliness is excellent! Absolutely remarkable, I consider myself very demanding on this point and this place has far exceeded my standards; the comfort of the bed and the tranquility of the place make rest (very necessary after so much walking) extremely comfortable, and as if all this were not enough... there's Rosella, she has a way of offering herself and making you feel at home, with her chats and her breakfasts with homemade food... please, what exquisite breakfasts! Without a doubt, our time in Florence would not have been so special without her presence. Grateful and blessed to have found you! We recommend you and hope to come back soon! Thank you for everything.

stayed from 06/24/2023 to 06/27/2023

The answer from the host:
¡Muchas gracias por las bonitas palabras, querido Franco! ¡Me conmoví! Espero tenerlos nuevamente como huéspedes en mi B&B en el futuro, tampoco me olvidaré de personas agradables como usted y Gabriela. Gracias

pierdavide

Rossella was a attentive hostess to our needs. The location of the property is a bit off-center but in a very quiet area and well connected to the center through the tramway available a few meters from the house. We arrived by car and were able to easily find free parking to leave it and move around with the public transport. The room is clean and welcoming, with everything you need. Also, breakfast ranges from sweet to savory, according to personal tastes. A good landing place to visit Florence without staying in the chaos of the center.

stayed from 07/18/2024 to 07/20/2024

The answer from the host:
Grazie mille! È stato un piacere ospitarvi!

alessia

We stayed for two nights, we were warmly welcomed, the Casa del Giramondo B&B has everything you need, excellent breakfast and very comfortable bed.

It was a short stay with my eighty-year-old mother. We felt welcomed and pampered by Rossella, who manages the Casa del Giramondo B&B. Abundant breakfast and on request, comfortable and very clean room, very functional bathroom. I will definitely come back.

Grazie mille Laura. È stato un piacere! Un caro saluto alla mamma! Vi aspetto!

ketti

With my husband and our 2 daughters we were guests of Casa del Giramondo B&B for a short weekend getaway. The first feeling was that of feeling at home, starting from the welcome and finally with the delightful availability of the landlady, always attentive to every detail. The b&b's location is optimal for quickly reaching the city center by tram, the neighborhood is very nice and quiet, with easy parking. The rooms are comfortable and clean, the breakfast is fantastic and varied. Experience to be repeated and recommended.

stayed from 06/02/2023 to 06/04/2023

Grazie mille Ketti! Un saluto alla tua famiglia e tornate a trovarmi!

Clean the rooms, the kitchen a bit less. Available the manager. Quiet area.

stayed from 04/21/2023 to 04/25/2023

The answer from the host:
Onestamente rimango molto stupita e profondamente delusa di queste sue valutazioni, oltre la recensione scritta con tale sufficienza e del suo comportamento scorretto, visto che durante il soggiorno lei e la sua famiglia siete stati lauti di complimenti per la comodità della camera dedicata ai disabili, motivo per cui ha scelto la mia struttura e che non si degna neanche di menzionare, per la vicinanza al centro tramite la funzionale tramvia a 5 minuti dalla struttura e per l'abbondante colazione dolce e salata (cheesecake, clafoutis di ricotta, strudel di pere e cioccolato, tiramisù alla crema, affettati, wurstel arrostisti, formaggi, crostini e bruschette, nonchè croissant, biscotti, succhi di frutta vari e cappuccino), che vi ho preparato personalmente ogni mattina e che avete puntualmente divorato. Oltretutto mi ha pure lasciato un pensiero di soddisfazione sul guestbook della casa, che recita testualmente "4 giorni passati bene come a casa. Belle camere pulite e silenziose. Grazie di tutto." Mi rincresce ma non posso dire altrettante grazie a lei. Le auguro di trovarsi meglio in una diversa struttura qualora tornasse a Firenze. Cordiali Saluti

donato

A quiet place 600 meters from the tram and 200 from the buses, Mrs. Rossella was very helpful, I would gladly return.

I stayed for 2 days to be close to my husband, who was operated at the Torregalli Hospital in Florence, and I had a very good experience. The location is perfect, very close, I could even walk there or use the Don Gnocchi parking lot, convenient and even closer. Breakfast is included, but I cannot judge it because I had different schedules.

I stayed at Casa del Giramondo B&B for two nights with my partner, small but cozy room, very clean. For breakfast, Rossella welcomed us in the common kitchen area with a good coffee and a wide selection of pastries and juices. Pleasant and family-friendly atmosphere, we will definitely come back.
