The Park Palace is both comfortable and elegant! I'd be very happy to stay there again. The service was very good. The hotel itself is charming and old fashioned. Beds were comfortable with very high quality linens. The location is a little far (20-25 minute walk, 10-15 minute cab) from the main tourist attractions/monuments, but if you prefer a quiet setting and enjoy walking this place is for you! Florence is not a big city, but it's still congested and busy so I really enjoyed the serene setting at the Park Palace. As a bonus, they have easy parking too.
