Hotel is nice. Room was very cosy with very interesting design idea though a little small. The shower in the bathroom which is unbelievably tiny was made as folding screen (like lego).So if you like to have good water spray its impossible cause water will flow in the room as the hole in the floor is unable to absorb the water quickly. Breakfast is poor but for 3 nights stay it was ok. Hotel is just 10 min by bus from the center. So overall it was not bad for me as for a single traveller. And i liked the design idea. The hotel has the face and it attracts!

What a little gem! Monica and her staff are just incredible. We had a lovely welcome and the staff were very helpful. Breakfast was excellent. Our room was very restful and had a lovely painting of the duomo and campanile. The bus stop was right outside and it was great to be able to buy our bus tickets from the hotel. Very handy. We would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone and would stay here again. Ask about the lovely little bistro just a 10 minute walk from there too for great local food and a lovely atmosphere. Thanks again!

It is all it says it is. We had an awsome time there. It is a spotless place to stay,a lot of thought was put into decorating and upkeeping this place, by a true professional lady.In the end, I guess, it all comes down to the personal treatment of the staff. To that I have to say, it was the best we ever saw on our trip. Monica and her staff, where truley the best, bar none.We will defenetly make this place our main stay in that area next time.And again our deeply felt gratitude to monica and all the gang.

Monica was so very helpful and we appreciated her help. Hotel Rosary Garden is a little off the beaten path but lovely - maybe a 15 minute walk to the center of Florence.

The Rosary Garden is a lovely small hotel where all the staff make you feel welcome and nothing is too much trouble. We were offered a choice of room on arrival and choose one with a nicely decorated fresco on the wall. Afternoon tea is laid out in an inviting side room. Slightly out from the centre of the city but bus stops close by. Nice gesture of box of chocs when we left.

The is a lovely hotel and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. There is a regular bus service into Florence and it doesn't cost much in a taxi. This was the best hotel we stayed in while we were in Italy and we highly recommend it. We would stay here again if we visted Florence.

The last time I stayed here I made the comment that wholemeal cereal and bread were lacking at breakfast. Great to find them this time. I would recommend this hotel to anyone except people with physical difficulties because of the small spaces and the entry stairs. Contentissima di vedere che il mio commento sulla mancanza di cereali e pane integrali è stato accolto. Da raccomandare a tutti meno chi potrebbe avere difficoltà con le scale all'entrata. Tornerò!

We were delighted by our stay at the Rosary Garden from the excellent service to the what seemed very spacious and immaculate rooms, especially for a European hotel. The staff were extremely helpful in helping us find our way around and directed us to a wonderful restaurant within a block of the hotel.We stayed three nights and wished it had been longer. Perhaps a little further out from the center than ideal as buses sometimes took a while and while walkable, it was a long haul a the end of the day. In a relatively quiet neighborhood with some limited traffic noise in the morning but on the whole we really warmed to this hotel and would come back again.

The hotel is run by very courteous and lovely people. They made me feel welcome, and were very kind to me. The hotel is charming and the service is very good. It's not very close to the heart of town, but bus transportation is convenient and inexpensive. An excellent stay. Thank you.

All the staff were very welcoming despite my midnight arrival. To be honest all was great except the quality of the breakfast.Poor selection of not very nice brioche and sweet white rolls. Some wholemeal bread would have been nice,as well as fresh juice instead of poor quality bottled, the fruit looked a bit old....what a pity.Other than that highly recommended.

My stay at Rosary Garden was quite by accident, due to an error in booking by my travel agent leaving me in Firenze with no accomodations. Rosary Garden was a very pleasant surprise, and the staff outstanding. The new owner indicated she had just taken over the property and was eager to assure my stay was perfect. I found the staff very friendly and helpful, and all spoke English. I highly recommend them for a pleasant, quiet stay, and their location on the main bus line and across from the HUGE co-op mall is a plus. Note there are several great restaurants within steps of the property that are not touristy and appear to be a local secret. As long as you understand this property is about 4 miles from historical Firenze, stay at the Rosary Garden and go by cab or bus into the tourist area. The rooms are freshly remodled and *spotless*. The owner is one of the nicest people I have ever met. I will stay there again!
