We three stayed with Antonio in Althea rooms for 2 nights in early May. We found the room to be very clean, well kept and comfortable. It is located on the south side of the river in the Oltrarno district, very convenient to Pitti palace, Boboli gardens, and away from the hustle bustle of the old downtown core. 10 minutes... more

I very much enjoyed my stay at Althea Rooms, excellent location across the river but not too far to walk into the city center, very clean, separate room with computer in my single room, plenty of space and Antonio is a pleasure to deal with and very very helpful, he gives numerous tips and advise to make sure that your... more

Althea Rooms is a small B&B just outside of the bustling centre of Florence. The location is near Santo Spirito and amongst many students and locals and outside the "tourist" comings and goings which made this stay wonderful.

Breakfast is served in room (coffee, juice, croissants, packaged cookies) as there is no breakfast room. Eating in the room is a litle... more

It's on a nice quiet road, away from all the hustle and bustle but still close to cafes, shops and restaurants. The staff are very... more
