Interesting experience in mideaval tower

We really liked the stay in the tower. The view is breath-taking and was the highlight of our stay in Florence. It's centrally located, close to major sights.Property management company is responsive. We didn’t have hot water on a night we came in. They fixed it next day. I’d suggest to provide household supplies based on number of days guests are staying. We were there for 6 days and had only 2 tablets for dish-washer, 1 garbage bag.Overall good experience and I can recommend it for other travellers.

Top of Firenze

The apartment was lovely and the pictures are accurate. The location was perfect, halfway between the Duomo and Santa Croce. The views were amazing but you pay for them by climbing all the stairs to the unit. If you are in good condition this apartment is for you!

Out of breath!

This property is wonderful! GREAT location! Florence was our favorite, shops were convenient, food was delicious! But this property is not for you if you aren’t physically fit! Too to many stairs & then to get luggage up there, God help you! 87 steps to get to this place! View was great, from the 3rd floor! Beds were very hard! Bring your own towels, if you can!

Great stay in Florence

We enjoyed our stay at this property! The stairs were a bit of a challenge, but the view and location made it worth it! We arrived in Florence via train. We were called by property manager while arriving. He greeted us at the door and gave us good instructions about the home. The location was excellent. Great walkable location. We took a pasta cooking class that was literally right next door. The class was fun with lots of wine!! Would recommend this property to my friends!

Buona posizione a due passi dal Duomo, a parte questo l'appartamento è scomodissimo. Al nostro arrivo, dopo esserci fatti 4 piani di scale con piccoli gradini in sasso levigato, l'addetto alla consegna dell'appartamento non è riuscito ad aprire la porta, lasciandoci 20 minuti sui gradini in attesa che arrivasse un suo collega. Per accedere alla seconda camera da letto ed al salotto sovrastante, bisogna arrampicarsi su di una scala a chiocciola ripidissima e per la prima parte completamente cieca. La soletta del piano di arrivo traballa in modo preoccupante, si dovrebbe effettuare una verifica delle portate. Sconsiglio vivamente l'appartamento a persone anziane o coppie con bambini piccoli.

Charming, Old World Apartment close to everything

We really enjoyed our stay. Very comfortable apartment with 2 large bedrooms and a loft overlooking Florence. 2 great bathrooms and very nice kitchen. Be warned.. 96 steps from the ground floor to the apartment. Once inside 3 grand floors of old world charm.

The location is great - walking distance to all downtown attractions. The view from the top floor is spectacular. Bathrooms and kitchen were very clean, but the floors have not been washed in a long time. Walking around barefoot or in socks was not possible.

Excellent place for younger people

This amazing place is on the fourth floor of a very beautiful and old building. There is no elevator in the building. There are 87 steps to get to the front door of the unit and the unit is three stories on the inside with 40 steps to get to the living room. So all and all you'd need to go up 127 steps to get to the living room with amazing views of Florence. The views are amazing, location is great, unit is clean, the only concern are the steps.

Excellent!!!

Absolutely great location! There are a lot of steps - but the listing is clear on that… worth the view and plenty of space to spread out! Clean and in a fantastic neighborhood. Walked the entire city. Check-in was odd - but I think it was in part because they weren’t getting my texts. Just be sure to be in touch early and often. They are very close by to give you keys and check you in. Great sport. Would recommend!

Beautiful views, wonderful location

Yes, the stairs are challenging- especially during check in and check out, but we loved being so close to everything. It can get a bit noisy in the late night, wee hours but we enjoyed the positives! The only criticism is that the address was difficult to find- our maps took us to the wrong location and it was frustrating trying to find the building. Overall, it was a great experience!!

If not for the view, one star

The views of this property are incredible, truly an opportunity to sit back and take in Florence. Unfortunately, there were a lot of issues with the property management. The girl that helped us check in met us at the door downstairs. She looked at us and just said “there’s a lot of stairs” and she ran off without even offering to help. She was short and seemed like she was in a hurry. She charged us a late fee even though we weren’t notified we’d be charged extra for getting there later. The blanket in the main bedroom had blood and makeup on it. The kitchen wasn’t cleaned thoroughly so we had to clean the glasses and everything. The toilet had urine upon arrival. We had to ask for extra toilet paper, paper towels, blankets and a few other items but we only got the toilet paper, extra sheets even though we asked for a blanket, and a dish towel. We messaged the owner but didn’t get a response to all of our questions. We asked maybe 5-7 questions and only got a yes. We also reached out to Vrbo customer service but they weren’t much help either. Overall disappointing and we won’t be using Vrbo again due to this experience.

Yes, 90+ steps. But spectacular views!!

Torre Donati was a magical place to make home base for touring around Florence for a few days. Heating was great for December. Had a brief electrical outage one day and host was great about communications & getting it fixed ASAP. Would definitely stay again. Views from the penthouse living room were fabulous day + night.

Florence review

Although we. Loved our first stay in Florence, the checkin process was not easy. We waited for admin for over 45 minutes to arrive. When they did, they gave us the wrong address. The property does have a lot of steps but the views are amazing! The property did not have enough towels or sheets for the pullout sofa. When we arrived, the Wi-Fi and heat were not working. They did have someone out quickly. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. It would def help if the property had more kitchen and bath essentials. They did not have dish soap or even salt and pepper.

Gorgeous Torre Donati Apartment

Absolutely amazing place to stay! Plan to spend a part of each evening in the loft, as the sunsets over the city are spectacular…. Kitchen is well-stocked with dishware but bring your own kitchen soap, seasonings, etc, if you plan to cook/clean (we only did breakfast in the apartment, with meats, cheeses, and produce from the market at the base of the apartment stairs)). LOCATION is wonderful: we walked (with our roller bags) from the train station (about 20 min walk), past the Baptistry and the Duomo to get to the apartment. There are lots of steps to get to this apartment, but every one of them is worth it!

Wonderful Stay

We loved our stay here! Because of all the prior reviews, we knew what to expect with the stairs, and we managed just fine. There are a lot of them! The views from the upper floor, and even the main floor, are amazing and worth the extra effort! There were 5 of us, aged 45-74, and all made it up and down fine several times per day. I would recommend against staying if you have trouble navigating stairs, as some are narrow and uneven depth, particularly inside the apartment. Very centrally located and easy to walk around the city. Neighborhood is lively throughout the night so one of our group wore ear plugs to bed to help with the sound. But everyone else did fine. Beds were comfortable with no issues - could have used one more blanket, but it was ok. Property manager and maintenance were very responsive to all of our questions and check-in was easy. Would stay here again!

3 Nights in Florence

The many stairs are well worth the views from the top floors. The apartment and baths were very clean and sheets and towels were good quality. Location is convenient for all walking access around the city. Our only negative was the local contact, Shivam, who was late for the check-in and ignored requests to replace several lightbulbs that were not working. The apartment is in a pedestrian only zone so you will need to walk a short distance to access it from taxi or bus drop off.
