It was the perfect place to stay for a few days around Florence!! Very conveniently located, walking distance from all the sights. The owner Is amazing, always making sure you have all you need and that you are confortable. The room, just like the photos, very nicely designed and with an awesome view of river Arno!

Amazing place! Don’t think twice, just book this. The staff were so friendly! Amazing view to the river. Our room had a little balcony (worth getting a room with view) where we sat and drank Prosecco enjoying the surroundings. The reception has snacks and a full bar free of charge for guests. We drove there. There is a parking space just in front of the building to drop off your luggage and then we kept the car at one of the garages nearby, which takes care of the ZTL permit for you. We walked to all main attractions. Great restaurants at just a 5-minute walking distance. When I come back to Florence, I’m definitely staying here again.

Beautiful, air-conditioned room with mini fridge with complimentary water/juice/beer and a balcony overlooking the river which is perfect for enjoying a glass of wine or coffee.

Lovely host and lovely suite right on the Arno. Very quiet, clean, comfortable. Rooms are pretty, not pseudo-modern-sterile. The host, Francesco, is very kind. We will definitely try to stay here again

The view from the room with a balcony is as beautiful as advertised. It is worth paying extra for it. The hotel is super central, in a lovely and safe location. The amenities were great and the host was very generous with snacks and drinks. The puppy co-host is adorable. Highly recommended, cannot wait to come back.

This place was amazing! Francesco the host was a great welcoming host. He showed us a map of the city and gave us tips on places to visit. He also had a common area with a fully stocked refrigerator with wine, water, beer and champagne for us to take from which was no extra charge. The room was amazing and bed was very comfortable. I cannot recommend this place more! We will definitely be staying there again next time we are in Florence!

The location was amazing, right on the river with incredible views of the sunset. So close to everything, made all the museums, piazzas, restaurants really accessible. The host was incredibly friendly, helpful and the hotel itself was very clean, well decorated, air conditioned. The common area with open bar made it feel very luxurious - when I first arrived he popped a bottle of Italian sparkling wine for a me and brought it to my room! Would highly recommend and I would stay again if I return to Florence

Perfect hotel in the centre of Florence. The river view was gorgeous! 10 mins walk to main attractions and train station. Surrounded by restaurants and cafes. The free fridge/ bar situation was incredible as was the service! Could not have hoped for a better hotel/ stay in Florence.

Incredible stay. Staff extremely friendly and catered to our every need - Our little balcony facing the river must be one of the best locations for a sunset wine in the whole of Florence ! Beautiful.

Residenza Vespucci was a dream hotel for us. My 94 year old mother and I travelled to Florence for a week in May 2023.
Upon arrival, we met Francesco, the owner of the hotel. He was gracious, warm and welcoming. His dog Lapo (the trusted hotel concierge) was calm and soft and lovable. His presence made us feel at home.
Our room was the Grand Suite which had a huge (but narrow) balcony directly facing the River Arno. The rooms are lovely, and large. There was a king sized bed for Mom, a very comforable pullout for me, and two clean bathrooms.
The hotel has an elevator, so it was easy to get Mom in and out of the hotel.
Mom and I spent hours every day on that balcony - drinking tea, wine, and Francesco's homemade Limoncello. We watched a beaver enter its lodge, rowers and anglers, people walking dogs, foot traffic. bicycles, traffic, scooters.....and the birds were wonderful - Night herons, seagulls, swifts, Igrets... You can see the Ponte Vecchio from the balcony, and the moon rising over the river is magical.
The balcony itself was a wonderful outlet for fresh air, beautiful moonlight, and activity to watch. Particularly for someone who has limited mobility.
And then there was Francesco. He is the consumate host!! Caring, compassionate, and genuine. Every day he provided little thoughtful services and kindnesses. One night Mom had a medical event and Francesco had a physician attend the room in 15 minutes.
We have rebooked! *****

The best experience in Florence. I have been several times in Florence, but this time my stay was extraordinary in the Residenza Vespucci. My room had a very nice balcony with amazing views! I had the opportunity to do a lot of videos and pictures for Instagram. The host is very nice and kind person.
You can reach any touristic, historic and interesting point walking from the Residenza Vespucci.
It is 5 minutes walking from the train station.
Now, this is my favorite place to stay in Florence.

Great stay, great location. The view from the balcony is unforgettable beautiful! We booked the suite that had separated sitting room with two full bathrooms and one wrap around large balcony, it was so comfortable we felt like we were staying at a nice Italian home, not a hotel. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

I love this hotel. Our suite, with a large living room and separate bedroom had three small balconies virtually sitting over the Arno. Awesome views. Perfect location. The lovely young woman who runs the hotel makes you feel that she is personally responsible for assuring that your stay in Florence is her personal responsibility. I fell on the street and asked her where I would find an emergency room. Knowing I would have a long, long wait if I went to nearest hospital emergency room, she found and booked me at an excellent private clinic, and had a pair of crutches waiting in my room upon my return. It’s like having family in Florence
