“Hotel Astro Mediceo impressed me with its nod to neoclassical style, paired with updated comforts, and I especially like the on-site bistro that focuses on traditional Italian cooking; plus, its location outside the bustling city center is a real advantage. The staff's dedication seems to cultivate a welcoming atmosphere, and the thoughtful touches, such as personalized meal options and bicycle rentals, elevate the experience. In my opinion, it's a solid choice for those seeking a more intimate Florentine experience.”
