- Just back from 4 days in Florence and found a wonderful hotel Had a fanatic stay – rooms large – staff very friendly – and location was first class – everything right on the doorstep.
- My husband and I, my elderly parents, and another couple booked rooms at the Hotel Colomba for five nights in October, 2008. I stayed there with my daughter two years ago and knew I would go back if I ever had the chance to travel in Italy again. The hotel is close to the Medici-Riccardi Palace, the Duomo, the Accademia.

Clean and uncluttered
The Hotel Colomba seeks to mix modern comforts with traditional Tuscan style. As a small hotel of just 14 rooms , guests clearly get a very high level of service from Rosanna, and the hotel’s recent renovation mean that the fittings are fresh and up to date. The Hotel Colomba has spacious rooms which are over and above the standard room sizes in Europe ,as the photos attest. Each room has an en-suite bathroom with shower. Guests can expect to find telephone, satellite tv, air-conditioning and a mini-bar as standard in every room. Being in the centre of town can mean noise, not so much from the traffic, but at night when the city livens up in the summer months and people are letting their hair down and enjoying the city. Rooms at the Colomba are all double-glazed so you can sleep at night, or during the afternoon if you take a “riposino” (like the Spanish siesta). Seven of the rooms give views over the city of Florence while the other seven look over an internal courtyard. There are two rooms which are provided for easy access for disabled persons.
Hotel Colomba is situated in the centre of Florence in an elegant Tuscan building that dates back to the seventeen-hundreds. The location of the hotel is perfect for visiting all of the major attractions and artistic highlights that this city has to offer such as Piazza del Duomo, the Uffizi Gallery, Piazza della Signoria and Ponte Vecchio. The convenient location also allows for easy access for travelers arriving by car or train.
