Hotel Olimpia - Floransa

room was so bad we ended up not staying here so of course lost the money we had paid. We ended up hetting a beautifulroom in a close by hotel for less money. The hotel Olympia and room had a musty smell. The room was very dark, The window opened to a dark shaft, shower and toliet only had a flimsy curtain seprating them. The lobby of the hotel was very […] dirty... the carpet was not clean. This hotel was not as represented by Hotel.com. it was a huge disappointment. Devamı

The best thing about this hotel was the location - in the middle of Florence, a close walk to everything. It was clean, relatively quiet, decent breakfast, great staff.

stay away, the worst hotel in flotence. i don't think it deserves to be colled hotel. no lobby, located on 4th. floor of run down office builing. please, if you don't ruin your vacation do not book room in this hell hole

Clean, relatively comfortable, as Italian 3 stars go. Staff was really nice and helpful. Loud during the day, but quiet at night, except for the obnoxious German girls staying next door,. The night clerk did ask them to keep it down, but no use. However, that was not the fault of the hotel. Honestly, the location ( in the heart of the historic district) […] was worth putting up with much less. The staff was nice, the room was clean and we were satisfied. Devamı

best location all attractions within 5-10 minute walk room real florentine style when go back to florence would book again

Great staff, rooms are OK and the location makes up for any issues you may have about the room. Piazza Republicca ride outside the hotel door. Close to everything. Probably really a 2 star hotel with a 4 star location. Breakfast is OK!

Right in the center of everything. Within walking distance of the Duomo Cathedral, the Uffici Museum, the gallery where Michelangelo's David resides. Many other tourist/historical destinations. It does share a building with a law office and a dentist's office. As well as a bed & breakfast. Take the lift directly to the desk (conveniently labeled) and […] you shouldn't have any problems. Devamı

Very friendly and VERY conveniently oriented hotel. We had a room on the Piazza - very loud, but only if the windows were open, otherwise very quiet. Comfortable bed, though miserable lighting if one wanted to read. Only substantial "miss" was the bathroom - very small with shower curtain closer than one really wants while showering. Despite these misses, […] we would definitely visit again - the staff were very helpfull and sweet. Devamı

Good luck if you arrive by car because this hotel was very difficult to find since it is in an area where cars are not permitted (unless you are staying here). After many stops to ask directions, we found it very near to the carousel. You can walk to everything easily.

Th best thing I can say about this hotel is that the location is amazing. Centrally located in the middle of all the tourist sites and on a beautiful plaza. The negatives: Hotel is on the fourth floor and the elevator is downright scary. Personnel was rude and disrespectful to me and my girlfriend. Room was ok, but the bathroom substandard. Walls are […] thin, very thin. Overall rating, 2 out of 5. And that high of score is because of the location. Devamı

Basically this hotel has a perfect location downtown, virtually eliminating any transport to move around. The hotel is clean and ok. Full recommendation if you only have a few days to explore Florence.

This hotel is in a great location within walking distance to all the must see sights in Florence.

Not bad... location is near the famous place, room also clear and comportable

The hotel is located on the 3rd and 4th floor of a building, so extremely difficult to find. However the location is fantastic, and the hotel itself is in a lovely traditional building with an implausible amount of shutters.

Minutes from the train station. The location is within walking distance to everything you came to see. Typical accomodations for Europe, but beware of the new tourism tax that you'll pay at check out. It's per person, per each night you stay.

July 2011 may daughter and I stayed at The Olympia. This hotel is in a wonderful location, the rooms are okay and clean... the staff was friendly enough... the bed wasn't the highest in comfort... but the reason I wouldn't stay here again is because of the bathroom/shower set up. When you take a shower (which is literally in the middle of the bathroom […] with no curtain, door, etc.) you are wetting the ENTIRE bathroom (toilet, sink, floor, toilet paper roll, etc.). Very weird and inconvenient. So after my shower I had to get a towel to "attempt" to dry the floor and toilet a bit so I wouldn't slip and fall when coming back into the room. Not an intelligent set up. Devamı

I am traveling with two children, so location is key, as is quiet. We were able to pop back from anywhere in five minutes, and this allowed us to get the best of Florence. Our room was cool, spacious and quiet and the kids loved the bathroom combo as well as the old fashioned lift. Reception staff were really nice , wifi was unreliable, so they didn't […] charge me. Breakfast was great in a room that overlooked the piazza. It was easy to find and I would certainly go there again. The only bed I have slept in in France and Italy that didn't deep like a rock ; I slept so well! Devamı

The hotel is on the 3rd & 4th floors of a very old building in a major piazza within easy walking distance from the attractions. The plumbing and elevator were obviously afterthoughts since the building appears to have been built around the turn of the century (not this one - the last one). Old, but clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful […] . Devamı

Pros: -Great location! -large room with very high ceilings and huge windows -decent breakfast offered (cereal, rolls, fruit, coffee, etc) -late check-in possible Cons: -hotel staff were sometimes nice/helpful, and sometimes a bit nasty -the hotel isn't particularly fancy (but very good value for money) -Shower is over the toilet. Only a curtain separates […] it from the rest of the bathroom. If you arent careful, you get water everywhere. Overall: ideal hotel for a stay in Florence if priority is safe, clean hotel in good area. Great value for money. Don't expect any frills though. Devamı

Right on the plaza... Great location near the duomo .. Lots of stuff to see and do ...

The reviews are right. This hotel is all about the location. The rooms are big, which is nice, but it is a very, very bare-bones hotel. My college aged kids felt it compared more to the hostels they stayed in while visiting Europe. Absolutely no frills whatsoever. No one to help with luggage, air conditionaing that was only moderately effective, an […] odd bathroom. Not a 3-star hotel on any level. However, I cannot down play the location. Right in the heart of Florence. It was all fine, but just manage your expectations. Devamı

Amazing low price, very nice service and good breakfast.

Hotel Olimpia was in a great location and easy to find , just find Piazza Repubblica and its there, its the piazza with the carousel in it and in the same place as the Savoy. Hotel was great, clean, good size room and the staff very friendly. Breakfast quite good for an italian breakfast. Would definitely stay again.

location was great, bed was comfy, room was large and clean, breakfast was not good. Location was fabulous....

We read all the reviews and decided to go for this hotel for the loaction, which is great. The shower was definately an issue especiallly at the 120 Euros we paid. In Europe, the hotel fees go up and down in a true supply and demand fashion. If fewer spots, they have no shame about gauging you. The point being, at 70-80 Euros, i could take that there […] really is no shower in the room, just a curtain that pulls around a rod in the middle of the bathroom. I could have also handled the elevator which is a joke, but at 120 Euros, go elsewhere, doesn't compensate for the location. Devamı

The location was absolutely wonderful- on the 4th floor (a little different for a reception lobby) overlooking the Piazza della Repubblica - the one with the carousel!! Our large room (we were travelling w/3 people) had a balcony & we spent the final hours of our week in Italy enjoying the sights & sounds of Florence from our perch on the 4 floor. Considering […] that the next day was Easter (every church bell in Florence tolled at midnight - welcoming in Easter. Nice). & we were in Italy for likely the most expensive week of the year, we felt that the price was reasonable for the location & hotel ammenities. There was no separate shower... but simply a drain in the floor & a curtain on a rod to pull around & enclose the shower space. I know that medieval buildings are tough to retrofit, but I hadn't seen this sort of arrangement since Girl Scout camp. There wasn't anything wrong about it, just odd to get the toilet wet when taking a shower! The hotel is within walking distance of everything... 5 minutes to either the Uffizi or the Duomo. We can't tell you about breakfast because we left for the airport too early to have it. We were a bit disappointed in the reception staff who frankly didn't seem to want to be bothered by hotel guests much and sure as heck said "no way" when we asked if we could have coffee & juice before we left for the airport at 5:00a.m. The request didn't seem unreasonble, but the desk clerk certainly seemed to think so! Actually, if management from the hotel Olimpia is reading this....the hotel would have rated the absolute best of our 10 days in Italy if the night staff had been even a little bit engaged. Might think about offering coffee to travellers who have just paid many bucks on a hotel room but who couldn't stay long enough for breakfast. Devamı

Not the most updated hotel, but the location is great for the price! Would recommend to friends...

I would recommend this hotel for it's location, which is unparalleled being in the centre of Florence, and for the price which was extremely reasonable. The hotel is on the fourth floor of a beautiful building on the Piazza. Our room was spacious and clean with a tiny bathroom. The breakfast was continental and was fine - plenty to choose from. The […] only issue we had was that the gentleman at reception was indifferent to us, bordering on rude and didn't appear to appreciate any queries.. Other than that, I would recommend this hotel and hope that the receptionist was just having a bad day! Devamı

Everything was O.K. except shower booth. There was no separate shower booth in a rest room.

My family and I traveled Europe for thirteen days and this place was the only bad experience we had. The only good thing about the hotel was the front desk staff. The hotel is located in the fourth floor, with no front desk at the bottom, you have to take an elevator that seems it was built in the forties and only fits a couple of people at a time. […] The room is small and outdated and they don't face the plaza, but an alley. We had to get the staff to clean the bathroom, because there was a very strong smell of urine. The bathroom floor is the same as the shower, there is no separation. My family and I were so turn off by the bathroom that we all decided not to take showers there. We only stayed here, because we arrived late and were leaving early in the morning. During the night we could here the phone ring at the front desk and hear the conversation of the staff. I don't know if it was just in my head, but I could not stop scratching after I woke up. Please, take our advice and find another place to stay in Florence. Devamı

We stayed here for 2 nights and we where very impressed with the hotel. Its on the 4th floor with lift access, room was impeccable, stand in shower was in the toilet roomwhich was a bit wierd but worked ok for us.. breakfast was great and staff are very friendly and helpful.. However what makes this hotel special is the location, smack bang in city […] centre in a beautiful square and mins walk to everything from Duomo to Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio etc.. A lovely little hotel and great value for money.. Cheers Mark from Dublin Devamı

Excellent location, walk to everywhere important. Short walk to the train station and a short distance from the airport that should not cost more than 20 Euros. The walk to the train station is about 10 minutes without your luggage and the trip to the airport in a taxi is about 20 minutes. Make sure that you contract the taxi and not pay more than 20 […] Euros as Taxis in Italy tend to take you for a ride and ruin your wallet. The hotel has an efficient way of helping you out with this. Great sights around and good restaurants in its vicinity and great shops, right beside Zara's. The bath and toilet facilities are a joke and belong to the dark ages. This is not a three star hotel as it is rated. The hype does not much the reality. It is located on the fourth floor and the view from your room is not the Plaza but the back of other buildings. The lift is ancient and does not work if someone forgets to close the clanging doors. Their breakfast has too much sugar. They should have more healthy cereal and more bread. Stuff are friendly enough but could smile more and make one feel more welcome. Devamı

location location location go eat at pirates. clean, safe, close to everything including walking to train station.

The Hotel is in the Heart of Florence, so accessable to all of the main sights. Room was very large for the 3 of us, we had 4 twin beds (2 pushed together to make a king) with somewhat of a view out the window. Bathroom was small with the shower in the middle the shower curtain just went around you-so everything in the bathroom gets wet, especially […] when the 18yr old is finished. Breakfast was great and there was even a small lift. Overall we had a great experience! Devamı

close to everything....great hotel for the $$$

Best location in Florence. It's a bed and breakfast with private bathrooms. It's OK for the price.

This hotel is right on the square. If you like to walk everywhere, this is a great place for you. If you can't walk upstairs or hate small elevators, don't stay here. The welcoming desk is on the 4th Floor. It's a bit run down. Our bathroom lock didn't work. Also, the shower is on top of the bathroom seat. It's kind of odd for Americans, but there is […] good pressure. Devamı

the location is perfect but the shower did not work well and was to close to the toilet. good for short stay

Once you have found your way in, you will discover a friendly First Class hotel which could not be closer for all the must see sights of Florence. would definitely recommend this Hotel.

This hotel is properly situated near all of the major sights in Florence and a little less than a kilometer from the Santa Maria train station. The hotel staff was fine, and the room was clean. The amenities in the room are minimal. If you need a bed and a bathroom, since you expect to spend the rest of your time exploring Firenze, then you should […] be fine. This may be a deal-breaker for some, but do not expect a conventional American shower facility. My bathroom shower was just a shower head that stuck out of the wall with make-shift curtain. This type of shower is common in some hotels in Europe, but it may be unusual if it is your first time seeing one. Devamı

Great location!

This is the perfect hotel for someone on a budget - the location makes this a 5star! My kids and I would even stop by the hotel, just to rest our feet... It was that close to everything. Yes, it did have a weird bathroom, and we even skipped the breakfast the second day (watery juice - nothing exciting), on the whole we could not have been more ple […] ased. Devamı

Un ottima scelta soprattutto per la posizione centrale che ti permette di vivere Firenze centro senza auto e senza orari. Le camere sono pulite e ben riscaldate. L'unica pecca è il bagno, piccolo e la doccia praticamente inusabile visto che si trova dietro la porta non isolata. Farsi una doccia significa rendere impraticabile il bagno. Comunque lo consiglio […] per un week end. Saluti Devamı

Vi havde et udmærket ophold på dette hotel. Intet at klage over og alle blandt personalet taler godt engelsk (den slags er ikke en selvfølge i Italien). Ved ankomst fik vi et værelse med udsigt ud over pladsen (Piazza Della Republicca) mod et beskedent ekstragebyr. Andre er værelserne har udsigt til en meget trist baggård.

Hotellet ligger godt med få minutters gang til mange af de større attraktioner i Firenze. Der er en udemærket service. Dog er morgenmaden efter italiensk standard og derfor for en dansker lidt letbenet. Men en en italiener vil nyde sin latte og croisant. Fra hotellet træder man direkte ud på Piazza della Republica med et stort antal af restaurenter. Der […] er airkondition på værelserne hvilket er rart om natten. Alt i alt en god oplevelse til en fair pris :-) Det er lidt dyrt at parkere i hotellets (24 EUR per. døgn), men luksuøst at få bragt bilen frem og tilbage, når man skal bruge den. Garagen ligger ikke ved hotellet. Devamı

Rezeption unfreundlich und inkompetent Zimmer : ein finsteres Loch mit Ausblick in einen stinkenden Innenhof. Papierdünne Wände. Defekte Klimaanlage. Frühstück aus Papiertellern und bechern. 3Sterne sin weit überzogen. Nie wieder
