Alamanni,  Tuscany Italy

★    ★   ★

 

A simple unexciting choice in an uninspiring railway-side location – although its not too far to some of the sights. The hotel occupies the second floor of the block, with the remainder of the building devoted to residences and offices – the communal entrance and stairwell up are fairly bleak and uninviting – there is a lift for those avoiding stairs.

Exterior

Uninspiring dated-looking building with metal-fronted balconies and a communal gated side entrance.

Property type: Hotel

Storeys: 6

Interior

The interior is limited to an unimaginative open-plan room with teak furnishings which is used as reception, breakfast room and bar – a small balcony with a table and chair has limited views of the city skyline as its main focus is the train tracks.

Rooms: 17

 

 

Location

Area Type: ¾ mile west of Piazza del Duomo, on uninspiring busy city centre road overlooking railway lines, surrounded by mostly residential buildings with a splattering of shops. Shops and bars surrounding the main train station are 150 yds away. Sights of the Ponte Vecchio Bridge is 1¼ miles away. Bus stop is 50 yds.
