From Highway A1(exit Firenze nord) and A11 you can reach Via Cavour by following the signs for Viali di Circonvallazione and Centro. Traveling down the Viali you arrive at Piazza della Liberta', keep your right hand, and turn onto the right ( before the beginning of the avenue) Via Cavour heading towards the center. After approximately 900 meters you will see our hotel on the right side where you can then park your car in front while you check in and bring in your luggage. Due to the limited traffic zoning of the center of the city it is not possible to park your car on the street for an extended period of time, and therefore we offer the use of a nearby garage where your car will be parked by an attendant. The cost per day is € 20,00

Date of Stay: August, 2008
The hotel Gioia is a palatial gem.It has a very comfy and modern feel because of the furnishings and it has a lift/elevator. The room was spacious, clean and had great A/C which we needed in 95 plus degree weather. The room was quiet and had a wonderful bathroom with shower. The hotel is ideally located within walking distance of the railway, Duomo, Point Veccchio and Galleria de Academia. We walked everywhere. The best part was the helpful and friendly staff. There was Pascuale for breakfast, Tizano helped with finding sites, a local market and restaurants and Franco helped us find a Farmacia to get drops for an eye infection. We were included in the morning breakfast even though we booked through Venere.

We really enjoyed our stay here. This hotel was everything we could have asked for. It was walking distance from the train station (about 10 - 15 minutes). It was situated on the main street that linked all the attractions, which made it very easy to get everywhere. There was a supermarket, where you could buy all your drinks at a low cost just two doors down. The hotel room was spacious and our view overlooked the main street. The washroom was extremely narrow and a tight squeeze, but the room was beautifully decorated and very cozy. The breakfast was not so great. It consisted of bread, croissants, jam/peanut butter/butter, orange juice, coffee (which we wouldn't recommend drinking).

Was extremely handy to the centre of Florence and we walked to all the major attractions. A lovely room and a pretty decent continental breakfast. We really enjoyed our stay here. A little noisy due to ambulances using the main street below

Tiziano and his personal are very very kind. They treated us very well, as a family and gave us all chances to have an excellent holidays. The hotel is located in an excellent place, and you can go walking to every places. The large distance is 15 minutes or less. Our room was big, quiet and clean. Absolutely recommended hotel!!!!!!!!!!!!

The hotel is located very close to the historical centre. The staff were helpful and although the facilities appeared to be a little dated, there was everything we needed. Finding good hotels for a reasonable price in Florence is almost impossible and this one is a good compromise.

There's always something like a game to book only according to reviews on the net.But as soon as we entered the reception I felt that this was right. The welcome was warm, polite and made me totally confortable. A frist expression that only grew stronger. The hotel is very central. We had a room into the garden at it was quiet, big and clean.

The only saving grace of Gioia was the cleanliness of the rooms and the people at the desk. The entrance put us right off it is very dirty and unwelcoming as are the external surrounds. When we compared it to other 3 star hotels we had stayed in it was extremely disappointing.

Date of Stay: May, 2008
We asked for standard rooms and they were on the street. The noise was not a problem at night and the sound of church bells a delight. Elevator antique but a definite plus. The breakfast was plentiful and there was a good choice. Very nice staff. Overall a very pleasant stay with a wonderful location in the heart of Florence.

Really nice hotel, clean and comfort. Very nice and friendly staffs, all of them! Ideal location, very close to everything. Could see bell tower from our window (Room 52). less than 5 minutes to Duomo; 3 minutes to Michelangelo's David; less than 15 minutes to Uffizi/Piazza della Signoria/Ponte Vecchio; about 10 minutes to railway station. Best pizza and T-bone steak nearby. There is an huge open market right around the street corner. nearby.

A pleasant stay with no problems basic hotel but reasonably priced and clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent location would stay there again.

Date of Stay: March, 2008
I like the hotel: location, room for size and quiet, staff is nice and very helpful. However, for this price I got much more in Rome. So, in mine opinion, it is a little overpricing.

Most friendly and helpful staff in all of the places we stayed in Italy. The hotel, although not new, was kept very clean. The showers were interesting due to the fact that the shower head was located in a corner of the stall, making it difficult to get under. The location is only a few blocks from all of the sights, shopping and retail, and train station in Florence. A short walk to everything.

Hotel Gioia was very nice and comfortable, the room and the bathroom were a good size and having the lift helped as well with our heavy bags. Good location close to the train station and Duomo and Academia. Only thing that wasnt the greatest was the breakfast compared to other european hotels i have stayed in but overall would definately recommend and would stay here again.

I had a excellent stay at Hotel Gioia. Given it's location in bustling and condensed Firenze center city, it was an unpretentious yet comfortable place. The street side room was a bit noisy but an acceptable trade off to have a "window on the city". The staff was very gracious and helpful. I would stay here again...

Date of Stay: September, 2007
The hotel staff were very jovial,friendly and helpful.The breakfast was adequate.Location was great, close to train station and most of the main attractions.The room faced the street, but we didn't hear any traffic noise.The bed was comfortable and there was adequate closet and drawer space.The shower in our room was very very small.All in all a very good stay.

The two best things about Hotel Gioia are the staff and the location. We spent two rainy days in Florence but the location and the staff allowed us to follow our trip plan without interuption or delay. They provided directions and even supplied umbrellas to get us to our destinations within the city. Close to museums and many fine restaurants. Highly reccomended!

I stayed with my wife at the hotel for seven days and met up with two others travelling from Austrailia. It was very good value for money and really central, very clean and welcoming. My wife was very fond of Pasqualia the morning waiter who was charming. We would recommend this venue to all types of groups but especially for families. We will stay again next year.
 
From: Michael Smith, USA
Date of Stay: July, 2007
Rooms big but not nice. Musty, noisy (floor squeaks, etc)and not comfortable. Very hot in Florence at the time and their air conditioning was not up to the challenge. Food poor. I was disappointed and moved to another hotel the next day. This is a decent choice for a cheap hotel, but not cheap enough to justify it.
 
From: Colleen Campion, USA
Date of Stay: July, 2007
Hotel Gioia was marvelous! The people at the front desk were exceptionally helpful and freindly. I would recommend this hotel highly to any travelers. We stayed in two triple rooms and the rooms were spacious and comfortable and clean.
 
From: Lana Witkowski, USA
Date of Stay: June, 2007
This hotel had a really friendly gentleman working at the front desk. He was welcoming, and helpful with all our traveling questions. The hotel was the perfect location...it was walking distance to the Academia museum, as well as a huge street market. We also were walking distance to the Duomo and Ponte Vecchio. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.
