B&B Lorena Suites

The place is very central and we had a flexible check-in. It helped a lot with our late arrival. It is quite and very clean. We used it for your city tour in Florence and having the center in walkable distance was great.

The property was easy to find if you know what to look for. They communicated well. We had a problem with the shower getting water all over the floor which evidently was a known issue that the owner was going to deal with. So we had to minimize showers which isn’t fun. It was a quiet location away from the crazy of city center. The lady that cleaned and served breakfast was the highlight. She was wonderful and did her best to communicate with me even thought she can’t speak to much English. We do wish the breakfast was a bit more but it was ok.

Very lovely stay and beautiful team, the room was always comfortable and clean. Breakfast was always on time & served with a smile. There was a lot of construction out the side of the property which may be good to note for future visitors as we got a little lost at check in! Would stay again!

Cleaning lady Arena was excellent. But the management/owner was very rude. But the room was very good.

Bed and breakfast molto carino! Personale molto cordiale e colazione in camera top. Distante dal centro circa 20minuti a piedi (con molta calma),ma con la possibilità di prendere i mezzi urbani (1.50€ al biglietto durata 90minuti). Camere spaziose e come da foto. Letto e cuscini davvero comodi. Nulla da segnalare. Super consigliato

We had a lovely stay at Lorena Suites. The staff were so friendly and helpful despite my embarrassing lack of Italian. Our room was large and beautifully decorated with plenty of places to store our items. It was clean with an excellent cold shower - just what you need after exploring all day in 40 degree heat! Air conditioning was also very welcome as was the well stocked mini bar - this felt reasonably priced in comparison with local shops and provided a few local Italian aperitivo as well. We had a balcony which offered an excellent view of the sunset over the tuscan countryside. When we arrived and realised we were on the 5th floor, I was very grateful to note there was a lift available to take us and our bags up. Lorena is roughly 20 minutes walk from the duomo but you aren’t too far from other points of interest. We spent €10 in a taxi to get there from Santa Maria Novella station and it was €18 to get back and the host was very helpful in arranging this taxi back for us. When we arrived, the taxi driver pointed out a restaurant on the corner (out of the gates and turn left) which he said offered the best bistecca in Florence. We were dubious but tried anyway and it was incredible - if you want authentic Italian cuisine and company would highly recommend skipping the walk back into the busier areas and going here instead. It is worth noting that some of the rooms face onto quite a busy main road. While this was not an issue at night, in the morning this was quite loud from early on - best to make sure the shutters are fully closed as we found this (plus a couple of bottle of chianti Classico) made for a peaceful lie in. All in all we had a wonderful stay in Lorena Suites, all was fantastic and we cannot wait to find an excuse to come back and visit!
