We loved the Glance Hotel. Convenient location. Nice quiet room. The reception desk was awesome. Booked restaurants and gave us a lot of good local advice. We’d stay there again.

Great location and check in was smooth and so was check out. We stayed at the Glance for several days and after check never received water, Kleenex, or refills of basic necessities. That was disappointing but location was convenient to train, core of Florence and shopping.

Fantastically suited right next to the train station, food market, and central Florence. The area around it is very busy, and dirty, but the hotel itself always felt welcoming and safe. Great staff all around that were friendly, helpful, and informative.

This hotel has a very nice pool where you can see the Duomo. The room was decent but the bed is not extremely comfortable. While in the shower the ventilation suddenly fell. Disappointed to have VIP access and upgrade but didn’t happen. Regardless of the above I would stay at this hotel since the pool was the highlight

I was upgraded upon arrival with early check in and immediately was delivered a bottle of wine to my room. Wonderful! It was a comfortable stay. The area around the hotel was kind of sketchy with homelessness etc but nobody bothered me and the market is a stones throw away and also the train station

Hits and misses, but overall OK
The beds were very small and super uncomfortable (single bed is actually 1/2 size). Location is convenient, breakfast was good, and the rooftop pool is a gem.
