Very busy place but a great place to people watch. Be sure to make reservations if you want to climb to the top. If you want to see the church go super-early or later in the day.

The square is crowded but the building is beautiful. Built in traditional red, white and green marble, the massive structure is truly breathtaking. Be prepared to dodge a multitude of tourists as you journey through the square and through many side streets filled with shops of all variety.

My sister and I stayed here in August in 2016 for 3 nights and felt very relaxed in this hotel. There was scaffolding outside our window but we did not end up worrying about that. We were exhausted from lots of traveling, walking and flights, so Duomo View helped us relax. The air-con was good, sounds from the Piazza were minimal and wifi was excellent. Facilities were brilliant in our room, and breakfast was nice. Amazing location, it was easy to visit the shops downstairs to buy pizza and gelato, and a chemist was nearby so my sister who was getting sick was able to get what she needed. The majority of her illness disappeared while staying at Duomo View, since it was so relaxing, even though she got the illness as we arrived in Florence! Downside was the homeless people on the doorstep, not moving for us, but helping us talk to the staff on the intercom. Steps into B+B were a lot, but a small elevator helped us out. Only saw concierge once, but we were out most of the time. I enjoyed the B+B more than I recall the bad parts of the weekend we were there.

The staff seem really nice and helpful ( when there ).I could not ask for a better location in Florence. The only serious issue is checking in. Nobody is there past 1 pm. We got to Florence closer to 1:45 pm and were locked out. We called every number several times , with no answer. We were able to get in with a couple about 30 minutes later. The building is business/ loft style. So we carry the luggage up the 1st flight of stair to catch the elevator. The couple that let us in, said there was in a envelope left INSIDE with the keys. It seems like it should be a better method. It's pretty frustrating standing outside knocking on a door for 30 minutes with a small child, until someone happens to be going in the building. After, I was able to make contact with someone via text as instructed in letter left inside for me ( How was I to get inside?? ). The person whom I was contacting had the nerve to say they saw me calling! What if the couple decided not to let us in ??? Just crazy. Anyway, the bathroom is shared ( gross and unaware when I booked ), the floors are dirty, I don't believe the television worked either ( Would not have mattered anyway ), and they bed linens are worn out. This is also walking distance from the train station.

One of the most stunning buildings I have visited. The best deal is the all inclusive pass which is 18 euro. It gets toy into the Duomo main, the crypts below, the tower climb (about 415 steps), the baptism chapel, and the dome (another 460 steps), and the Duomo museum. Great deal with amazing views and some exercise!

Nice location, but...... Non-resident smoker on front steps who wouldn't move every time we entered and exited. No entry lobby or reception. 15-20 steps up to first landing (don't bring a lot of luggage). More steps to tiny, but charming elevator. 3rd floor hall door sticks. Our 2 twin bed room was minuscule. Beds sag and we could feel springs. No place to open suitcase or hang clothes . View completely blocked by scaffolding and billboard type screen. Don't be large (over 5'4 and 120#) - you won't fit in the shared shower. Piazza location means street conversations, music, party noise until 4 am and street cleaners and delivery trucks starting before 6 am. Overpriced.

Great location and close to all of the action but still quiet at night. Comfortable bed and good breakfast delivered to your room in the morning. No frills room but cozy with a small private balcony. The only downside is no access to a fridge/kitchen. Our room has a shared bathroom but it hasn't been a problem for us. We are really enjoying our stay!

Very average place. Go there only if the only thing you care is the view, because the rest is quite bad. The rooms are old and not super clean, expect some dust here and there. For being a B&B I have to say that the breakfast was one of the worst I've ever seen. The croissant were overcooked and the choices were very limited. If you happen to be here, save some money and avoid the breakfast, you can get a better one with the same price anywhere else.
