My stay at Hotel Continentale was quite nice! The location was really good, just steps from Ponte Vecchio, allowing me to explore Florence easily. The chic decor and spacious room made my visit comfortable, but I found the breakfast options to be pricey and not very enticing. Despite these minor issues, the friendly staff and stunning views from the rooftop bar greatly enhanced my experience. 🌟
