B&B Bonsignori: 3-star artistic guesthouse in central Florence
Personalized Host & Local Guidance
The hotel's host, Elisabetta, provides personalized service with local recommendations for restaurants, gelato, and attractions like the Santo Spirito Piazza. Guests receive maps and advice on opera concerts and the best dining spots in the Oltrarno district. This level of attention transforms the stay into a local exploration rather than a standard hotel visit.
Historic Building & Authentic Decor
Housed in a historic palace on Via Maggio, the B&B features restored timber ceilings and original terracotta tiles. Each room includes genuine antique furniture and artistic decor, paired with comfortable mattresses and recently refurbished bathrooms. The property preserves the historical charm of Florence while offering clean, well-maintained spaces.
Family & Group Accommodations
Family rooms and quad rooms accommodate groups with private bathrooms, air conditioning, and city-view windows. The shared common area offers a fridge, microwave, and dining space for guest use. Babysitting and child services are available on request, making the property suitable for families visiting Florence.
Breakfast with Homemade Items
Each morning, the host serves a breakfast spread including Italian cheese, cold cuts, fresh fruits, homemade marmalades, and daily baked cakes. Options cover continental, Italian, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets. The host also prepares non-dairy milk and custom dishes for guests with specific dietary needs.
Central Location Near Major Attractions
Situated 2 minutes from Pitti Palace and less than 1 km from Santa Maria Novella, the B&B sits in the authentic Oltrarno neighborhood. Guests walk 5 minutes to Ponte Vecchio and find restaurants, bars, and a Sunday market on the nearby Santo Spirito Piazza. Florence Airport is 10 km away, and all main sights are reachable on foot.

“This B&B caught my eye for its distinct artistic flair and its personable host. I like that it's perfectly placed for exploring Florence, especially the Pitti Palace, and that families are so warmly accommodated.
