About

B&B Bonsignori

B&B Bonsignori is a 3-star bed and breakfast on the second floor of a building on Via Maggio, one of Florence's most atmospheric streets in the Oltrarno district. The location is a short walk from Palazzo Pitti, the Boboli Gardens, and the lively Santo Spirito area, while the historic center and the Arno's north bank are within easy reach.

The B&B keeps things simple but comfortable: rooms come with air conditioning, heating, tea and coffee facilities, flat-screen TVs, and parquet floors. Families are welcome, and babysitting can be arranged. A buffet breakfast is served, and guests consistently praise the homemade cake.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Excellent room quality — Rooms are described as spacious, quiet, and well-equipped, with air conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and in some cases microwaves, kettles, and fridges. The room score of 9.7 reflects this consistency.
  • Central yet quiet location — On Via Maggio, close to Palazzo Pitti, Boboli Gardens, the river, restaurants, and transport, yet tucked in a residential area that guests find quiet.
  • Exceptional service — Staff are consistently praised for being helpful, welcoming, and attentive – one returning guest highlighted how the team recovered a lost item. The staff rating is 9.9.
  • Family-friendly amenities — Babysitting can be arranged, and the B&B allows pets. Breakfast includes a homemade cake that guests remember fondly.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Noon check-in and 10:00 check-out — Check-in is only available between 12:00 and 18:00, and check-out is by 10:00, which may be tight for some travel plans.
  • No on-site parking — There is no parking listed, so guests arriving by car will need to rely on public parking or garages in the area (typically paid in central Florence).
  • Second-floor walk-up — The B&B is on the second floor with no mention of an elevator, which could be a challenge for guests with heavy luggage or mobility issues.
  • Breakfast not universally praised — While some guests love the homemade cake, a few reviews don't mention breakfast, and the sample is mixed. It's a simple continental-style offering, not a full buffet.

04 — Location

Getting around Florence

The property sits in Florence.

Palazzo Pitti & Boboli Gardens: About a 5-minute walk, the former Medici palace and its sprawling gardens are Florence's largest museum complex. The B&B's Via Maggio location puts you right in the Oltrarno, the artisan district.

Santo Spirito: A few minutes in the other direction, this square is known for its church, daily market, and evening aperitivo scene. It's lively but the B&B's street stays quiet.

Ponte Vecchio & the Center: The famous bridge and the Uffizi are about a 10-minute walk across the Arno. You're close enough to reach everything on foot, but far enough to avoid the crowds.
