About

Horto Convento

Guests consistently highlight the warm, efficient staff—named in reviews for their personal recommendations—and the balance of a serene setting with easy access to Florence's main sights.

Staff went out of their way to cater to every need. On-site private parking was a real bonus, and the location was ideal—just a short stroll to the main sights and the centre.
