Hi, I am new here but am finding this site very usefull...Has anyone stayed at the Hotel Pedini in Florence, it seems to be a good deal. But I have never been to Europe so I don't know. Any information that people have would be great! Thanks!

Do a search "text search" on Pendini on the Italy forum, and you should get many responses. Several people have written about it. :)

It was nice and clean, big rooms and a friendly family runs it. They are very helpful. <BR> <BR>Author: Melissa ([email protected]) <BR>Date: 1/21/2001, 4:17 am ET <BR>Message: <BR> I second the Hotel Pendini.

Has anyone stayed there before? Any specific type of room I should ask for? It looks really nice on some sites I checked out. Any advice would be much appreciated!! <BR> <BR>Author: Burta ([email protected]) <BR>Date: 11/22/2000, 12:20 pm ET <BR>Message: My sister and I stayed there on one trip. It is on the top floor of a building (it seems that many Italian "hotels" are actually just one floor of a building and there may be other "hotels" in the same building -- at least that's what we found in Rome and Florence). The breakfast room overlooks the square and is quite lovely. The hotel is family run and quite progressive and efficient. There was a computer next to the front desk for guests to use for internet/e-mail access. We liked this hotel a lot. <BR>

My friend just sent me an email about the Pedini. We are meeting them in Florence next summer. They stayed at the Pedini last summer and loved it and will be staying there again.

The Pendini and the Casci seem to be the two hotels at the lower end of the price range that fodorites prefer.

get on aol's destination message board for florence. i saw alot of input on this hotel not too long ago. good luck. G.
