This was the best of the 3 hotels with visited on our 10 days Italy honeymoon. Perfect location, great service, beautifull room (really beautifull: view on one of the cities main squares, very nice furniture, new bathroom but kept in traditional style, confortable bed). Virgillio who is looking after the place was really nice, friendly and helpfull. The place is... more

Casa de Garbo is one of those places most travellers dream about but rarely experience. Perfect. We've stayed there twice now and will be back early in 2009. Cleanliness is outstanding, helpfulness and friendliness great, the apartments and rooms are brilliant. All services close by and all of Old Florence quite literally at your front door - some days you... more

We stayed at La Casa del Garbo for three nights from June 29 until July 2nd. The hotel could not be more conveniently located. It is right on the Piazza del Signoria which is the center of Florence. We were steps from the Palazzo Vecchio and the Uffizi. We were traveling with another couple and we had the Elenora Room... more

We spent three nights at Casa del Garbo in the Gemma Suite, and it was outstanding. The room looked exactly as it does on the CdG website. We arrived on Anniversario di Liberazione (the April 25 celebration of Italy's liberation from the Nazis), so the Piazza was hopping from morning till the wee hours. However, the suite had excellent windows,... more

spend 4 nights in the lovely house during October I can find virtually no fault at all, maybe except the lack of a lift, but hey...what do you expect from a totally renovated but still traditional house in the dead centre of Firenze? all the personnel there tried their best to make our stay unforgettable (Giovanna Elvira, Tomaso and Virgilio)... more

Absolutely loved Casa Del Garbo....a beautiful home away from home in Florence. To start off the location is perfect, probably the best in Florence, on the beautiful Piazza Signoria, across from the Uffizi and the statue of David. The room was lovely, the atmosphere at the B+B I believe (I don't think it's a hotel) warm and comfortable. The room... more

We were so pleased with our stay and would stay again - absolutely. Location is perfect. Gentleman that prepares breakfast is exceptional. Breakfast was fresh and good. Professionally run with obvious and well deserved pride. more

Before arrival I had contacted the Casa del Garbo for help to overcome the obvious difficulties of arriving by car, directions in negotiating the one-way system and have somewhere to park for 4 days. The rapid and helpful email responses on these and other queries from both Giovanna and Martina was exactly how I found them on arrival: welcoming, courteous,... more

My husband and our two young children stayed one night at Casa del Garbo, after landing in Florence. It was absolutely perfect. Warm and professional service from Giovanna, immaculate apartment with everything we needed (microwave, fridge, great shower and bath, wonderful view of the piazza), breakfast served in our "dining room" the following morning, and a location to die for.... more
