Hotel President

We stayed at this hotel in 2005 on our Contiki tour. It is located I quite enjoyed my stay at the President Hotel, which is located on a quiet hill outside the center of Florence.

The hotel staff was very friendly. Moreover, the rooms were ok; very clean but for the rest nothing special. I would say more 3* than 4*. The hotel in general and the rooms in particular have quite a retro feeling to them, which is not necessarily bad but I think that the property would benefit from a renovation. The room we was very big and had a good clean bathroom with good running water, that was a good colour of course.

Please be aware that this hotel is not located in the center so for this reason not ideal for tourists I would say. But ok if you have transport. On the flip side the fresh air on the hill on which the hotel is located, is a welcome change to the smog and heat of Florence during the summer months.

It was a bit of a walk if you were to venture into the main part of Florence.
I would overall stay here again, it was a decent place to stay and was generous on the pillows.

I would recommend this place for someone who is looking to save a few dollars on accommodations.
