About

B&B Cerretani Palace

B&B Cerretani Palace occupies a prime spot on Via de' Cerretani, putting you within a 12-minute walk of the Galleria dell'Accademia and even closer to Florence's cathedral. This is a compact property—just six rooms—so the atmosphere is personal and quiet, with an adults-only policy that keeps things calm.

Rooms are designed for comfort rather than fuss: soundproofed, with air conditioning, mini-bar, and tea and coffee facilities. The Deluxe Rooms add a balcony and city views, while the Junior Suite feels like a small apartment with a separate dining area. Breakfast is served in-room, and staff are known for tailoring it to your preferences.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable central location — A 12-minute walk from the Galleria dell'Accademia and just minutes from Piazza del Duomo, the train station, and major sights like the Uffizi and Pitti Palace.
  • Personal, attentive service — Guests repeatedly highlight the caring staff, who provide tailored breakfast delivery and a warm welcome.
  • Spacious, well-equipped rooms — Rooms are described as large and comfortable, with soundproofing, air conditioning, mini-bar, and tea/coffee facilities. The Junior Suite offers a separate dining area.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Small property, limited availability — With only six rooms, the B&B can book out quickly, and the intimate scale may not suit travelers wanting full hotel facilities like a restaurant or gym.
  • Street noise possible — Some rooms face a bustling street, and while soundproofing helps, opening windows brings the sounds of Florence's everyday life—including occasional opera singers.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 17:30, which may be tight if you arrive later in the day.
