Do NOT stay here. We were woken up every morning at 4-5am from the sound of the garbage truck banging in the alley below our room. Both me and my wife had BED BUG bites all over our backs on the second night. We had to bring all our clothes to the laundromat to wash for fear of being contaminated. 2 1/2 hours spent washing clothes when we could’ve been sightseeing and being tourists. To top it off, they lost our sandals when they moved our stuff to another room. No apology from them. We ended up moving to a better hotel down the street for the rest of our stay in Florence. Worst hotel experience I’ve ever had.

Excellent location next to Ponte Vecchio. We stayed in room with river view room was very comfortable, nicely decorated and very clean. But most importantly staff of the Hermitage was unbelievably nice, kind and helpful. We enjoyed every minute of our three day stay. Thank you

Wonderfully located and designed hotel and super impressed with it for our one night in Florence and would easily book here again. Air conditioning was a must and it came through as a lifesaver.

My wife and I chose this hotel 20 years ago for our honeymoon.  The hotel was elegant and the staff was warm.  You can't beat the location and the dinner recs!  We loved it, so we decided to return to Florence for our 20th and wanted to book it again.  This visit was even better than the first!  We arrived after a delayed flight.  They were able to squeeze us in at the rooftop restaurant that's phenomenal!  Also gifted a super good bottle of wine (twice!) to help in celebrating the anniversary!  The room was nice and spacious.  It was a great stay!  Extra thanks to Anna Lisa and all the staff!  The Hermitage is an all time favorite!

We arrived to Hotel Hermitage to stay for 4 nights. When we arrived we were told that there was a leak in our bathtub so we couldn’t shower that day. They gave us a free glass of wine and we thought “oh well”. The next day after showering the water was leaking everywhere around the sink and base of shower. We mopped it up thinking it was just from us showering. We got home hours later and the flood almost reached our bedroom. It was everywhere.

We told front desk and they said they couldn’t repair it until the next day, but if they did repair it, we would need to be out of the room for 8 hours. We did as they asked which is hard in 40 degree heat and not being able to shower. It was unpleasant. We got home to the following MESS (see attached pictures). We went to front desk where the lady was nice but she was working alone. So they had the cook go clean our room floor. It was absolutely disgusting. We asked for a manager and she informed me the manager would contact me the next day. We tried all day to get a new room or a Manager and nothing. Even the day after, no manager. Nothing was given to us. They “allowed” us to sit on the rooftop for a free glass of wine (I’d rather a bathroom) and we waited 20 minutes without being served.

If you want horrible service but a beautiful rooftop patio, this is the place. It’s a stunning patio with grumpy servers who barely come to serve you. It was our second time there.

The hotel had SO much potential but poor customer service in the event of a problem. This hotel was very expensive. I’m so disappointed. All in all nothing was ever resolved. No manager ever contacted us. No compensation. We couldn't wait to get to Bologna to get a shower.
