I was pleasantly surprised to find a Pensione at such a good central location which was so quiet. Good size room and friendly staff.I will definitely recommend Pendini and hope to return there someday!

The hotel was very nice, employees very helpful and friendly, rooms were very clean. The hotel was in the heart of the city and it was very easy to walk to most attractions. The hotel provided a very nice breakfast that was included in the price of the room. I would stay at this hotel again without hesitation.

Our room faced the Piazza del la Republica and was excellently located. The staff were efficient and friendly. Breakfast was plentiful and one of the better ones we had in Italy. My only problem was for senior adults, it was difficult to climb into large tub to use shower. I would recommend this property to "everyone", which is an entry that should be included below.

we were allocated a room that was OUTSIDE of the hotel. As far as I am concern it was not safe..... it was required to open an external door go through a dark room to get to the hotel..... thre was noise and we were not even sure what was going on we had problems with the lights, etc... What would be your opinion if similar things happened to you?

The employees are not welcoming at all and the global decoration of the hotel is very old. Please note that a parking is not included in the price and that you cannot park in the center of Firenze (the parking offered by te hotel costs 24 euros for 24 hours minimum). The comfort of the rooms depends from one room to another (our shower was only a small one and the water went in the whole bathroom). However, globally, the room was clean and comfortable.

Wow! Perfect location--we walked everywhere! Literally a 10-minute walk from the train station, 15 minutes from the Accademia, and less than 10 minutes from the Uffizi and Ponte Vecchio. We booked a double for our first night and a triple for the second, since my husband was joining us on the second night, but they graciously gave us the triple for both nights, while charging only the double rate for the first night, so that we wouldn't have to change rooms. Front desk staff spoke perfect English and were most helpful. Internet point was wonderfully convenient! I will definitely stay here again next time I'm in Florence!

we have stayed at the Pendini many times. It has one of the best locations in the city for a very affordable price. It is the ONLY place we stay in Florence!

We do not recommend this hotel. The only two good things we can say about it, is that it is located well in Florence and that the hotel has a nice ancient touch. Besides that, we DID NOT like the service we got from the hotel owner and do not recommend this hotel. When we were in Italy there was a public transportation strike exactly on the day we were supposed to arrive to florence and to this hotel. Desperately, we called the hotel to say we might not be able to get to the hotel because the trains are on strike, but the hotel owner notified us that this is not his problem and that he will charge us anyway for the full reservation. Luckily, despite the strike, our train was the only one to leave from Venice to Florence that day so we got to the hotel on time, just to find out that the hotel charges 20 euro a night for a baby crib. We WERE NOT notified about this by the hotel when we made the reservation, this was not stated in the hotel information on Venere and the hotel owner did not state this in the confirmation e-mail he sent us. We stayed in several hotels in Italy and were never charged anything for our 10 month old baby! The hotel owner claims that he charges full price (as an adult) for babies from 1 year old, which is totally outrageous! We payed for the room upon arrival (also unusual, you usually pay at the end of your stay in a hotel), so generally we got the feeling from the hotel owner that he is kind of a "show me the money" guy. Besides this, the hotel is filled with NOT TO DO signs all around: "no eating in the lobby", "no taking fruit from the breakfast room", "no making any changes in the computer open to guests (for internet) or there is a 200 euro fine" (and what if i am sight impaired and need to enlarge the fonts a bit?) All these signs give you a feeling that you're in school. All in all, do not recommend this hotel due to bad service given to us by the hotel owner,seems he is just tired of guest

Stayed here three nights and we couldn't have been happier. The staff was very courteous and prior to my arrival they were able to book reservations for the major museums there. The only down side was our room had a very close quartered bathroom. It was fine for us but older people my have trouble in the confining space.

Date of Stay: June, 2008
Phenomenal location! And we loved staying in place with a "Room with a View" era provenance. Our rooms were huge. We ended up with a whole other connected room we didn't even use. The bathroom was modern and spacious. We had no view, but didn't spend any time in our rooms anyway. The desk personnel were very helpful at all times and in all ways. It was great to be so close to the Duomo, Uffici and Ponte Vecchio. Lots of good restaurants and even where we had to turn in our car wasn't far away. Get ready for a very small lift and enter on the side street and not the plaza. We'd stay here again.

The hotel was very dirty and gross! Would not recomend this stay at all. Although the staff was very nice I dreaded coming back to the hotel becuase of how nasty and run down the room was! YUCK!

The Pendini is a rather charming, old-fashioned Italian hotel. The staff were very personable and helpful. The furnishings looked a bit worn but the plumbing worked and everything was clean. Breakfasts were uninspired and the coffee wasn't very good. Location was excellent.

Staff was very helpful. The hotel's location is great. Had a great stay.

Date of Stay: April, 2008
Superb location in central Florence. We stayed in two different triples, both spacious and with tall ceilings, one on the Piazza, the other facing away. We enjoyed the view on the Piazza even with noise from the piano bar until midnight. Good service, adequate breakfast. There were quirks of an older Hotel (frayed wall paper, quirky shower in one room, odd entrance to the Hotel) but if you can tolerate those kinds of things, Pendini is an excellent value. We enjoyed our 3 nights there.

We could not have picked a better hotel for our stay in Florence than the Hotel Pendini. The location was excellent - near the duomo, Ponte Vechio bridge, restaurants, shops, etc. Right on the Piazza de Republica it was perfect. Very romantic. The room was very spacious and had a 4th floor view of the piazza. Although we could hear noises from the piazza, including a bar piano, this was fine with us - wonderful ambiance. We would definately stay here again. Can't say enough good things about the hotel.

A very nice hotel in a great location for seeing the sights of Florence.
