Location is great - close to Duomo and walking distance to Ponte Vecchio and train station. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel room was clean and good size. Had safe and mini-bar. Best of all had an elevator which is rare for Italy but much appreciated!
My husband and I stayed here in September, 2007 and can say nothing but good things about it. Our room overlooked the little plaza and Medici Chapel. The room was decent in size, immaculate and comfortable. The staff, Andrea and Rafaella, were warm and charming, not to mention helpful. The location and price, combined with the good experience, made this stay our best in Italy.

We love "The Benci"
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/14/06
We lead a tour to Tuscany every June. We always recommend the Hotel Palazzo Benci to our group. We have stayed at the Benci at least 4 seperate times and have always enjoyed our time there.

Great Place!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/10/06
My parents and I loved this place. Excellent location, decent price, cute courtyard, and the most delightful and helpful guy working the main desk. But my experience is dated and from 2001. Small cosy Euro-style rooms, but delightful and charming and great service, in my book!
I stayed there while studying abroad in 1998 for about a week and had great service, clean rooms, felt safe, was close to all the big sites... I recommend this hotel. - Dan Soschin.

The rooms are small and a little plain but all are quiet and cleaner than my house could ever be. The location is very central ...

Nice Surprise

This was the cleanest hotel we stayed at during our two week stay in Italy. The maid service, desk staff, and maintenance personnel are to be congratulated on the hotel condition. The room was nicely ...
