Hotel Panama - Firenze

Spent three nights here. The hotel lies just outside the most bustling tourist area, but only a short walk. Restaurants/bars within 5 minutes walk. Small, quiet hotel. OK comfort, nice people manning the desk. Breakfast was not a winner, but then I am not used to the continental variety.

Central, good and frendly service but a littel bit small and not so good bathrooms. Bikes for free!

Nice comfortable hotel in Florence. Close to, but not in the center. Friendly staff.

Hotellet ligger litt utenfor selve bykjernen, men i et rolig område. Hotellet har egen bar med velkomstdrink ved ankomst. De låner ut sykler uten annet enn depositum. Gratis internett for alle hotellets gjester. Rommet var av god størrelse men egen veranda mot bakgården som var veldig koselig, med kveldssol. Aircondition fungerte fint. Litt smalt bad, […] men med plass til alt man trengte av fasiliteter. Kan med trygghet anbefale dette hotellet til andre. Les mer

Hotel was not in the center of the attractions which made it feel like a place to come home to after a day of sight seeing. However, all the attractions were in walking distance from the hotel. If you didn't care to walk so much you could take the buses just outside of the hotel. The breakfast was substantial and nourishing with a great selection. Igino […] at the front desk was so helpful, I'm sure he would be a great tour guide if he wanted to. Thank you. We stayed in 5 hotels in Italy, and this was the best. Eileen, Toronto, Canada Les mer

Staff were fantastic and friendly a short walk to the markets and easy to get around

the hotel is nice itself. very nice and friendly staff. the location is a bit off the center. it took us about 30 mins to walk to downtown so keep in mind that if you are looking for a convenient location.

Everything was GREAT, they could work on their breakfast but other than that it was great.

Nice staff. Always willing to help. Don't forget to borrow the bicycle. It's cool to ride in Florence.

The hotel staff was very helpful, they responded to our requirements which we had indicated during the reservation. The hotel is not in the heart of the historical centre, but it's only a 10-minute walk from there and also a walking distance from the railway station. The room was spacious enough and clean, facing the backyard and very quiet. Breakfast […] offered good choice - sandwiches, muesli, fruit. There is a computer with internet in the hallway. Les mer

was my first time in Florence and only had a day. The hotel staff quickly grabbed a map and plotted my day. They were great. Breakfast was wonderful! Only draw back to hotel is that there is really nothing around at night so coming back from the tourists areas it was very dark. But only 15 minute walk to train station. For one night great.

This is a decent budget choice about 15-20 minutes walk from the centre of Florence. The staff are very friendly and the breakfast is decent. The rooms are well appointed but the one I was in was quite small; probably the smallest bathroom I've ever seen in a hotel.

Globally, the hotel is fine. The staff is really helpful and always ready to help you. The rooms are clean but too small and do not have a lot of daylight. The breakfast is rather poor and quite limited. On top of it, the breakfast starts only at 7 A.M. so you miss it if you have to start work early in the morning. It is situated a bit far from the […] main attractions but if you like walking it takes only 20 minutes to downtown and to Novella train station. Overall, good hotel but it offers too little and the rooms are pricey. I have been at better hotels than this one, cheaper and closer to main attractions with more copious breakfast. I will not visit it again unless I don’t have other choice. Les mer

Although this hotel is a little out of the centre of the city, we found it to be a good hotel. Despite not being central we were still able to walk everywhere without the need for taxis. Staff were helpful and the breakfasts were really good.

Our room was clean and spacious, especially with the balcony. The bathroom was a little cozy, but that didn't bother us much. Breakfast was pretty standard, although we wished they had eggs. The hotel is located about 20 minutes walking distance from the main attractions in Florence, which was really nice for us as we did not like the boisterous crowds […] late at night. All in all, a great place with lots of character and pleasant staffs. Les mer

The staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good, especially the coffee. The hotel is a 15 minute walk from the centre, but it's a pleasant enough walk and good to get away from all the other tourists. Our room and bathroom were large compared to similarly priced Italian hotels and were clean and nicely decorated. Unfortunately […] our room had an unpleasant smell (maybe of blocked drains) but we didn't think it was worth complaining about. Les mer

Very welcoming from arrival to departure. For a 3 star hotel this is excellent value. We are from Canada. The hotel is an easy walk to all the sites in Florence. The included breakfast is excellent. We would return.

Had an issue with our room and they upgraded us immediately, good breakfast, free bikes! friendly staff, nice enough rooms, was a bit far from the main sights but easily bikeable or walkable...would stay there again.

An excellent hotel that was immaculately clean, well presented, and the staff were very helpful, and spoke fluent English. When we first showed up to check-in, the man at the desk was very informative about what to do in Florence, and how to get to these places. Very impressed! The hotel is situated on a lovely street . Our room had a great view. Might […] get a little passing noise due to traffic, but personally, I'm used to that. The only downside was that the shower cubicle was a little too small to wash in, but the shower itself is great. The bedroom area itself is plentiful, and a lot bigger than most I've seen. I would most definetly come back here. Les mer

The hotel itself is very nice, well priced and clean. The breakfast buffet is decent and there is free wifi with a reasonable signal throughout the hotel. The only downside is that it is located 1.6 kilometers from the Duomo and anything else you're likely to want to see in Florence. That includes restaurants, convenience stores and laundromats. If […] you don't mind the short hike, this is not a bad choice. If you're driving or you're in Florence on business, then this is no downside at all. Les mer

Convenient location, walking distance to main sights or convenient bus stops less than a block away. Staff was very nice and helpful. Decent breakfast. I was very happy with my choice.

When I was checking out , they show me some peace of paper saying that city just added $3 taxes per night per person, and it needs to be paid in Cash, now. I was argue for a while that these charges was not mention on line or in their hotel until my check out. But they wouldn't let me out without paying. So if two of you staid there for 3 nights, get […] 18E ready in cash! Les mer

Hotel Panama is a excellent hotel if you prefer a quiet and peaceful atmosphere over the busy city centre. The hotel staff are very friendly and helpful. They helped us with finding our way in the city, with restaurant recommendations and tips on where to venture along after our stay in Florence. On our second night we experienced a foul smell in […] our room and complained to the staff. We had to change rooms, the staff carried our stuff to the other room and for our troubles we got a deluxe room instead =) Very much appreciated! The hotel has a free WiFi which works fine throughout the hotel. They also have a stationary computer (Mac) in the dining room. We got help with printing train tickets from the lobby, good service! The hotel breakfast is a typical Italian hotel breakfast, which unfortunately means that most of the food contain much sugars. Fortunately they have some good muesli and their coffee machine is awesome! At the back of the hotel they have a number of tables and chairs set for the breakfast. Even though some of the breakfast is not the best, in the end it is very comfortable to sit out back on a summer morning listening to the classical music played from the speakers while sipping your coffee of choice! They have bikes that you can borrow for a 20€ deposit, but we never tried them out. The hotel is about a 15 minute brisk walk or 20 minute casual walk from the main sights of the city. Close by you find the famous Gelatera de' Medici. Every night after our city adventures we stopped there for wonderful gelato! We stayed in Hotel Panama for 7 nights in July 2011. Les mer

We found the location was just right for us; away from the busy centre but next to the river and just a pleasant 15-20 minute walk to the Duomo. The staff were really polite and very helpful. The buffet breakfast was fresh with excellent coffee. The whole place was clean with lovely soft towels. The bikes were an excellent way to see more of Florence […] in a short space of time. Slight negatives were the problem with our air-conditioning and the leaky shower, but the staff were very apologetic and we were so busy enjoying ourselves that it was not a problem at all. We would recommend this hotel and would stay there again. We were travelling as a couple with our son of 20. Les mer

The hotel Panama is truly a 3 star hotel, nothing more nothing less. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this hotel has the same quality of many (supposedly) 4 star hotels in Italy. The start system in Italy seems to differ greatly from that of other countries. However, I can say that you can really expect a 3 star hotel when you book it. The […] breakfast was o.k. to start the day but nothing impressive. To get to downtown by foot or main train station expect to walk around 20 minutes. The staff was extremely friendly. Les mer

The Hotel Panama is a great place to stay. Our room was very large, the bed comforable. The continental breakfast, plus cheese and fruit is good value. Wifi plus free use of a computer. It is in easy walking distance to the station and many of the tourist attractions. The one drawback, if you don't enjoy walking, is that it is not close to a bus stop. […] This is a small hotel, with a cosy family atmosphere. The staff are very knowledgeable about places to see, transport and where to eat. They responded very quickly to our requerst for more coffee. A great place to stay at an affordable price Les mer

everyone at the front desk was very friendly and helpful, great english too. Breakfast was excellent and room was so quiet !

Very friendly and helpful staff. Bathroom too small.

This hotel is about a ten minute walk from the main train station, it is set a little bit away from the main area but this is a good thing - it is in a green, relaxed area and only ten minutes away from everything. The hotel staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, the breakfast was nice (cereals, pastries, ham, cheese, yogurt, fruits etc. Hotel […] has free bikes for guests to use and also a free internet computer. Room was very nice and the area was lovely and quiet. Great hotel! Les mer

I thought from the advertisement that there were bath tubs with every room, but when I checked in they said only a few rooms had tubs. The rooms however were nice but the shower we had didn't drain too well but the hotel maintenance repaired in a timely mannor. Breakfast should be included but wasn't. For the 9 euro we would have had to pay for the […] cold ham and cheese we did better off getting breakfast at the supermarket. Overall the hotel is nice and clean rooms are big, bathroom small. It is about a 10 to 20 min walk to the attractions in the center. Les mer

Very friendly and helpful staff. They went out of their way to assist. Convenient location. A very short bus (10 min) or taxi ride to the historic center and to the train station. The only reason I give them a 4 is because the cleaning of the room could have been better the 1st day. Other than that it was worth the money.

We stayed in the older part of the hotel and there was definately an issue with the cleanliness..however the manger was very apologetice and sorted things out quckly and to our satisfaction..hopefully renovations will solve this...breakfast not worth the money...the location is 10/15 mins walk from the centre, 15/20 to the river but we enjoyed staying […] in a more resdential part of the city Les mer

Within walking distance to the market area. Very safe neighborhood. A great place to stay for a single lady traveling alone.

+ Courteous , friendly and welcoming hotel staff. + Spacious beautiful rooms. + Excellent value for money. - A good 15-20 minutes’ walk out of the centre .

The staff was friendly and helpul. There is parking. Free Internet.

Very nice hotel. Staff / management very helpful - they are dedicated to making you feel welcome at the hotel and enjoy the experience in Florence

The hotel is situated just slightly north of the main city, but well within walking distance of the most interesting sights. Pleasantly, the hotel is just across a small river along the edge of Florence, which adds quite a bit of green to the neighborhood. Although I parked my car outside of the city and took the tram in, the hotel offers parking for […] 18 euros a night, which does not seem too egregious to me, given the horror of street parking in the city. The floors were tile, yet the room was kept at a very comfortable temperature (not always guaranteed with tile floors) and was quite a good size. Perhaps the only slightly "interesting" feature was the shower: except for a glass divider, the water simply splashes onto the floor (and toilet) in the bathroom. This is not at all uncommon in Italy (especially older cities) but for an American, might be a new phenomenon. All in all, I thought it was a very nice hotel and would certainly stay there again, Les mer

The hotel is in a good location, 10-15 minute walk for the the station and Central Market. In a quiet neighbourhood with car parking in the hotel or outside in the street (charges apply for both). The staff were excellent, and spoke perfect English.

The rm we had was 101 behind the main hotel and it was quiet, and it was nice to wake up and get a fresh cup of Java Italian style served at the little breakfast cafe in the courtyard. Bicycles are free and sit ready for the asking along with locks. Every morning the staff would inform us how to get to our destinations as we were on foot or on the bus […] line #13. It rained one day and the hotel also had umbrellas to use for free. We also had the opportunity to use the free internet service. Les mer

Stayed for a long weekend with my gf. Location was about 10 mins walk from the main attractions, and about 20 mins gentle walk to the main railway station. Hotel is on a main road, so a little bit noisy from our ground floor room. But, good neighbourhood, quiet and safe. Air conditioning made some noise during the night which was a distraction, and […] the bathroom was very small but manageable. Breakfast was as expected, continental. All the staff spoke enough english for us to get by, and the main receptionist spoke excellent english and was very helpful with attractions and local transportation. Hotel made reservations for us for the next day at the Accademia Gallery. Very helpful! Buses 12 and 13 bus-stops very nearby, going into the city and stopping at all the main attractions in Florence. Free internet on the only computer in the hotel. Bonus! Overall, worth staying at. Les mer

I checked into the Hotel Panama late in the afternoon and after completely unpacking and settling in the room, noticed that it was extremely warm. I went to the desk and was told that the air conditioning was not working and would "probably be fixed the next day". The staff was much more interested in extra charges for breakfast and a guest than in […] customer service. The night desk person was extremely rude and the next day when the air conditioning wasn't fixed or when it would be fixed, I checked out and moved to another hotel-STAY AWAY Les mer

Very highly satisfied with the Panama and would recommend it to anyone seeking comfort, hospitality and quality. Our room was spacious, well appointed and tastefully furnished. No problems with city noise and busy traffic whatsoever, so we slept well. I loved breakfast on the terrace overlooking the tranquil courtyard. We took advantage of the Panama's […] bicycles and had a super day cycling all over the city. The hotel staff were always kind and helpful and even managed to book us slots at the Uffizi which I had been unable to from home online. An excellent and well run hotel which we commend to others! Les mer

Muito simpático o pessoal do hotel, gostamos demais! Unico inconveniente é o tamanho do box do chuveiro, quase impossível uma pessoa, mesmo de estatura mediana, conseguir entrar.No mais muito agradável.

Trevligt litet hotell lite utanför Florens centrum. Bra service.
