Hotel Calimala was a great stay! The stay was very pleasant and always was available to answer any questions or help out as much as they can. Since the hotel is located in the heart of Florence, everything is within walking distance (restaurants, Dumo, stores, bars, ect). The proximity is so great that I would recommend not renting a car. Just put on your most comfortable shoes and explore.
Now when it comes the rooms, they seemed smaller than I expected but the hotel’s attention to detail and overall design is gorgeous. The large windows overlooking the city was my favorite. The beds are extremely comfortable as well. The hotel even offer charging converters which I thought was really sweet.
They have two bars/restaurants on premise. One is located in the west building and the other is located in the east building. (Yes, the hotels are split up into two building, but that doesn’t take away from the experience). Anyway, the free breakfast wasn’t as great and could be better, but the steak we had for dinner was pretty decent and the bartender gave us free shots. Overall, I would definitely book with this hotel again. The service, staff, and hotel was nothing less than amazing.
