About Hotel Alessandra

Just 820 feet from the Uffizi Gallery, Hotel Alessandra is set in a 16th-century building, once a noble residence. It offers air-conditioned rooms and free Wi-Fi throughout. All rooms come with a TV and telephone and most have wood floors. Bathrooms are all private. In addition to the free Wi-Fi service, guests also have a free internet point. A large buffet breakfast is served until 09:30 in the hotel's cozy dining room. Staff at reception are always happy to help and can arrange museum tickets and offer useful tourist information. Florence's famous Ponte Vecchio just 656 feet away, while Florence Cathedral is less than 10 minutes away on foot. The Alessandra Hotel is set in a historic building and so the elevator is small. The building's entrance has a staircase to climb before reaching the elevator. License Number(s): 048017ALB0141

    Room and bathroom were excellent . Staff was excellent Didn’t like steps, elevator, mosquitos in the room. The second the guy showed us the mosquito thing for the room, we decided to leave. Elevator was too tiny.

    The hotel was very comfortable and great location , very good staff , only reason I’m giving 8 it’s because the stairs , it’s located at third floor and for families with bags it’s hard , other than that , very good Stairs

    This was such a perfect fit for our girls trip. Helpful and friendly staff. Safe and comfortable accommodations near everything on our list. Hot shower and large bathroom. Delicious cappuccinos in the mornings. What more do you need? That first flight of stairs with luggage to the lobby is a doozy. But well worth it.

    The location and cleanliness

  • Engine customer Jun 2026

    Location was phenomenal and the staff were very friendly and kind. Room was ample size for a family of 4. The walk up was a bit much after a long day of sightseeing and the odor at the front entrance was pungent. However the hotel itself was fine.

    The stairs to get to the room.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Location, staff, amenities, breakfast Breakfast room was a bit tight but worked out well.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    We enjoyed everything about our stay at the Hotel Alessandra! From the wonderful location to the helpful, friendly staff to the delicious breakfasts, we would highly recommend the hotel. A larger sign would be helpful, especially because the numbers don’t seem to be consistent on either side of the street. We missed the entrance, not just once, but twice. ?

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    The room was very nice and spacious. The staff were excellent. The breakfast was very good. The location was excellent. We found the beds a little firmer than we like but was ok. There was 2 flights of stairs to get to the elevator and then when we got to the lobby, our room was one flight down. So lots of lugging suitcases.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Can’t beat the location it was such a bonus to oversee the river with terrace. The building with broken bell was nostalgic and pic perfect. Location was great and staff were very helpful and professional.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    The bed was not particularly comfortable, as it was made up of two single mattresses with a gap in the middle. The room was also quite basic and missing some standard amenities, such as a kettle. Considering the price, it feels quite overrated.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    The noise from the restaurant below, especially late and early stacking and unstacking tables. The one-person elevator was out most of the time. Make four flights of concrete stairs with luggage very hard, both up and down.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Beautiful old Italian theme and feel! Loved it and the old fashion elevator. The stairs, there are a few steps you must take to get to the office.

  • Engine customer Dec 2025

    Great location in the city center. Beautiful historic building; rooms very spacious and clean. Bathroom recently upgraded and modern. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Recommended parking available a few blocks away for extra fee. Had to carry luggage up a flight of stairs to reach the elevator.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    There was nobody to help me with the suitcase specially the first floor does not have an elevator, so you have to drag your suitcase all the way up to the second floor, heads up elevator is so small barely you can fit in the elevator with your suitcase.

  • Engine customer Nov 2025

    The location and staff were amazing! The room was giant for Italy, we were able to leave our bags after checkout and the hotel had an elevator!

  • Engine customer Nov 2025
