Close to Duomo, very nicely decorated, excellent breakfast, friendly staff. Only thing that we didn’t love was the air conditioning didn’t work very well and the room was a bit too warm for a truly relaxing sleep.
Nikki, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great walkable location near main attractions. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. A small hotel with breakfast included that suits a one- or two-night stay in Florence. Paid parking is just steps away.

Room was very well done. Very comfortable king bed. It was clean, quiet, and quaint. Walking distance from everything. All my wife and did was walk around and we enjoyed every moment. Staff and concierge were extremely helpful and accommodating - it was perhaps the best part of the hotel. They never said no. I will definitly come back here when I revisit.

Jake, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Glimpse Hotel is in an excellent location—walking distance to all the main sights, making it ideal for first-time visitors. The central setting does mean it can be noisy, but that’s expected in such a vibrant area. The service was outstanding—staff were friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Breakfast was excellent with great variety and quality. A few drawbacks to note: the mattress wasn’t very comfortable, the shower is inside a high bathtub which can be difficult to get in and out, and there’s no real lobby area to relax. Overall, a great base for exploring Florence.

Sanctuary in Busy Florence

We had a wonderful stay at Glimpse. The entire staff were so helpful and friendly including Alina, Yulia, Bernardo and Mario. I could not have asked for a better location. The hotel was just a few minutes from the Duomo and everything else was within walking distance. Also the free breakfast was amazing!
