About
Relais Del Duomo
Relais Del Duomo is a 4-star bed and breakfast set in a historic building on Piazza Dell'Olio, in the heart of Florence. Its position earns high marks from guests, who rate the location 9 out of 10, with the Battistero di San Giovanni just a 10-minute walk away and many of the city's main sights within easy reach.
The property keeps things simple and personal: a handful of rooms, each with air conditioning, heating, and a private shower. Breakfast is served as a tray delivered to your room each morning, and the staff are known for their helpful local tips. Expect a quiet, old-world atmosphere rather than a big hotel experience.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Rooms and cleanliness rated lower — The 'Rooms and cleanliness' category scores just 6 out of 10, suggesting some guests find the rooms dated or maintenance inconsistent.
- No pets allowed — The property has a strict no-pets policy, so you'll need to make other arrangements for your animal companions.
- Limited on-site facilities — There is no on-site restaurant or bar — just a leisure/TV room — and public parking is nearby but not guaranteed. You'll rely on the city's dining options.

8.8Verified guest“It was wonderfully peaceful all around. The location is fantastic, right next to the main square and also close to the train station, with an open-air market just 10 minutes away. My recently refurbished economy double room had a very comfortable king-size bed. Breakfast was lovely and varied, with good coffee, fresh pastries, and the usual continental options.”
