Green, go! In Firenze

02/04/2024: Great stay at the hotel. Location is great. It’s in front of the T2 tram stop, making travelling to the hotel from Florence so quick and easy. The main train station is about a 5 min walk from the hotel. The hotel is about a 6 min walk to the Duomo, and there are lots of restaurants and shops around the hotel. We had a room on the 4th Floor, which unfortunately faced the construction happening on the right of the hotel. Room was big enough for the 3 of who stayed. The room could do with some TLC, but didn’t spoil our stay in the hotel. An extra touch we appreciated was the free mini bar, which was replenished everyday. It included 4 fizzy drinks, 2 still and 2 sparkling waters, 2 small bottles of juices, a biscuit and peanuts. We did request not having sparkling water but still instead, but this request was never carried out. Breakfast for us, being vegetarian was fine but would have loved some hot food provide. They only had scrambled eggs (which we don’t eat) and sausages. They had a big selection of pastries, breads, teas, coffees, juices, fruits the list goes on! The breakfast room is located on the 5th floor and had wonderful views of the skyline of Florence. You have to get there quick to get the best tables next to the windows. They also provide to go breakfast for those who have early starts for tours. They provide plenty of food. The only issue we had with this is that we requested a veggie bag with no eggs and they provide us with a ham sandwich and eggs! But it was ok as there was plenty to keep us full to lunch. All staff at the hotel, always so nice and friendly. I would definitely stay at the Grand Hotel Baglioni if I were to come back to Florence.

23/03/2024: It's difficult to find fault with a hotel of this standard. Sometimes distinctions should also be made between hotels classified in the same star category. This is the best in everything. Rooms. Position. Breakfast. Service.
