During my stay, the hotel was undergoing a large-scale renovation. Half of the entrance was sealed, the lobby became smaller, and the rooftop restaurant with a view was closed. It looks like this project will take more than a year to complete.

The service was extremely poor. The fire alarm rang at 5 o'clock in the morning and lasted until nearly 8 o'clock. The hotel did not explain or apologize. There are a lot of people at breakfast, and there is almost no service. The house is super old. The penthouse suite has a good view from the terrace, but nothing else. I feel that the overall hotels in Italy are very poor. The price is still very expensive.

I had a wonderful stay at the newly rebranded Excelsior, a Luxury Collection Hotel, in Florence. Although there was a change to my itinerary and the reservation was modified at a reasonably late time, the staff on the property went above and beyond to accommodate me during the busy summer travel period, despite the hotel being at high occupancy. I wish to extend a heartfelt recognition and thanks to Ilatia, who was so warm and offered assistance at great length to ensure the stay was a comfortable and memorable one. The property is a historic building with a rich history, and a refined and up-to-date interior that preserves its legacy. The staff explained during check-in that the hotel has hosted many distinguished guests over the years, including celebrities. The guest room allocated was on the top floor and came with a lovely private terrace, featuring plenty of outdoor seating and a fantastic view of Florence and the Arno River. Overall, I was very impressed with the hotel's service, amenities, and location, which is within a short walk of all major sights and restaurants. I highly recommend this property and look forward to returning next time I visit Florence.
