C-Hotels The Style Florence (Florence, Italy)

The room gives a clean and comfortable stay with modern amenities. A small breakfast is available each day and some room rates charge an additional fee. The hotel also offers to book tours for guests, saving on  hassle. Some rooms even have a balcony with gorgeous views.

The hotel is centrally located and there are many notable attractions and landmarks within a close distance. It's possible to walk to restaurants, pubs, and markets with no trouble. The main hub for public transportation is quite close and it's a short ride to the airport with shuttle service that stops near the hotel.

The staff here is friendly and pleasant and seeks to make their personalities known to guests.

The hotel has two decidedly unpleasant smells that battle with one another for a decision on which one is strongest. The lobby has a very nasty sewage or gas smell that permeates into the common areas and hallway. This is only outdone by a heavy smell of cleaner which can be overwhelming.

The rates here are a bit expensive, likely due to the amazing location. However, you'll also likely find other charges added to your bill. Rooms with kitchenettes can get higher rates and parking rates are expensive and get charged per day. Valet rates are also costly with daily charges.

The C Hotel chain actually services several hotels in the same area. When booking online, it's not quite clear which one you'll get. Some are luxurious and some are more basic. Some offer breakfast in a restaurant and others get you a paper bag of bread outside your door.
