The double room with a balcony offered a nice view, but it was closed off during the stay, which was disappointing. Breakfast featured fresh coffee and juice, which was a nice touch.

Power outages were a recurring issue, affecting the shower and contributing to an unpleasant smell in the bathroom. The noise from trucks and street-cleaning equipment blurred the lines between day and night, making sleep challenging. The toilet flush struggled to work consistently, and the presence of street noise, despite closed windows, was notable. Lastly, check-out felt chaotic, as there was no one available to assist.

Il Sorriso might as well call itself a NO Sorriso. The breakfast was laughably poor, and it's a shame that the noise from the road was so distracting at night. I also expected a complimentary upgrade, but alas, it seems being a guest here means no extra privileges—how disappointing! Almost gave it a good review, but just couldn’t.

Strong match for a quick stop in Florence with great value. I loved how Fabio stored our luggage and offered breakfast while we waited for our room. Watch out for local street paving, it can be a bit uneven!

A terrace with a view

Il Sorriso Bed & Breakfast offered a wonderfully welcoming experience. The terrace was a perfect spot to enjoy breakfast each morning while absorbing the sun and the beautiful surrounding architecture. The room was spacious and impeccably clean, making it a delightful retreat after a long day exploring Florence. The host was incredibly hospitable, providing excellent local recommendations that made our visit even more enjoyable.

However, the noise from the nearby road was quite disruptive at night, making it a challenge to sleep soundly. The check-in process felt a tad complicated, as it had to be done remotely and required some advance communication via WhatsApp.

The location was perfect for exploring Florence, with several attractions just a short walk away. I especially loved the charming balcony off my room which made for a lovely spot to unwind. Angelica, the host, was very accommodating and checked in on my arrival time, making the whole experience feel personal. The clean and stylish room also added to the overall enjoyment of my stay.

We had a lovely time in a spacious double room with a balcony. The clean and beautiful common terrace was a great spot to unwind, and the property is conveniently located about a 15-minute walk to the Accademia and a block from public transport. Antonella, our host, was incredibly attentive and provided excellent local recommendations.

The breakfast options were a bit limited for our taste.

Our family loved staying here, especially the roof garden where we enjoyed breakfast with stunning views. The location made it easy for us to visit attractions, and we found the staff to be friendly and helpful throughout our stay. It was a lovely spot for relaxation.

My wife says that the dining options were limited for kids.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Il Sorriso. The spacious room had elegant decor and a charming balcony that offered a lovely view. The rooftop terrace was a delightful retreat, and breakfast was delicious, featuring fresh rolls, meats, and coffee made to perfection.

Street noise at times.

The property boasts a fantastic location, just a 15-20 minute walk to major sights and surrounded by great restaurants. The room was impeccably clean and cozy, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration. However, the noise from the busy street proved to be a nuisance at night, making it hard to sleep soundly. Additionally, the breakfast offerings were somewhat limited, lacking variety that one might expect in such a setting.

Large terrace for breakfast, and comfortable bed. Traffic noise was bothersome at night.

The spacious room and delightful outdoor dining area made our stay blissful. The staff, especially Omar, were super helpful and responsive to our every need. Breakfast with freshly squeezed juice, coffee, and pastries was superb!

However, the traffic noise at night could be disruptive.

A Gorgeous Escape in the Heart of Florence
