We had a fabulous stay. The hotel is amazing b a superb location. Very, very close to both the train station and the tram stop for the airport. The staff were very helpful and made some great recommendations for restaurants. We were also able to leave luggage at the hotel before and after check in and check out. Will definitely stay at the Hotel Embassy again

Convenient, full-service hotel
My family stayed at Hotel Embassy during a brief trip to Italy over the holidays. The hotel was very well located near to the major sights, yet did not suffer from street crowding common with other tourist hotels. Very clean rooms and services.

Very nice room, and set up. We stayed in a family suite with a bunk beds for 2 kids. We reserved 3 such rooms for our group. They are all clean and cozy. The rooms were newly renovated. The bathroom is definitely a highlight. Very nice shower room, strong water pressure. 2-3 mins walking to train station which we took every day to downtown Zurich. Highly recommend.

Superbly placed hotel for rail travel into Florence and onlt a short walk from the major sights of the city. Staff were incredibly helpful both on check in and check out and the room was lovely. Breakfast was fine. Location is less inviting at night but all city train stations have similar problems.

Good location. Staff were lovely. Room was big and clean. Shower was great. Only two slight negatives we're the bed is a tad hard and it can get noisy from activity in the hotel, depending which room you get. We had a room that got a bit of noise from people walking past, although it didn't really bother us as we were always too tired from enjoying Florence to notice!
