We recently stayed at the athenaeum during our visit to Florence in March 2007.
having booked a flight and hotel deal through expedia for £140pp for 2 nights, we were surprised at the bargain price for a 4 star rated hotel. on expedia.co.uk, it says that the hotel is well located, within walking distance of all the major attractions of florence.
On first entering the hotel, the first thing you notice is the lovely sheek modern interior, then you're greeted by the very friendly staff. First impressions were good. They were knowledgable about the local attractions and also well equipped with information about location transport links
The room we were given was a standard double, although the bed provided was a combination of 2 singles put together, the combined size was equivalent to a uk "king size" so not too many complaints ...
Advantages: Clean, comfy, good breakfast Disadvantages: May not be worth paying full price for
I went to Italy to visit my boyfriend, who is on exchange there for a while. On our way to Siena (where we spent most of our time) we decided to spend a night in Florence to see some of the sights. We didn't really put all that much thought into accommodation, we just needed somewhere to stay for a night, and we ended up at the Hotel Alamanni.

The Hotel Alamanni is a three-star hotel located very near to Florence's main train station and about a 15 minute walk from the major tourist attractions. The hotel has 17 guest rooms and 2 suites. There are no business or sporting facilities, but breakfast is provided in the lounge area.
LOCATION:
The hotel is located on the Via Alamanni, a road that runs along the side of the main train station- Santa Maria Novella. The road itself is easy enough to find, but ...
Advantages: Great location and room views Disadvantages: Lack of free internet access (if guest does not have a computer)
Myself and my family have traveled to Toronto twice in recent years and of the second times we decided to use this hotel. It is a mid-rise building located in the centre of downtown Toronto close to the Eaton Centre and Dundas Square.
The hotel's location really is its best feature - in my opinion you really couldn't be in a better position (most attractions such as the CN Tower are within walking distance). The room sizes are good with great views across the city. The rooms are also clean and comfortable.
The hotel reception staff were helpful and the reception stays open late which is helpful (for example we arrived at the hotel late at night).
The only major downside to the hotel was the lack of free internet access with a computer (i.e. if you do not have your own computer you will either have to use the hotel's pay ...
