Not Sure of our guides names. We had a food tour guide in Rome was great very good. He gave us lots of information about the area and the food. Our guide in Florence was excellent. We spent 2 days in Tuscany with him. Our food tour in Venice guide made the tour all about us. We asked a few questions and she gave us the food that answers in food. `

Hotel Reviews
Hotel Alba Palace Florence
Florence

Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. The room was extremely small with an even smaller bathroom. Our room faced the street and we were woken up every night to shouting in the street. The only friendly staff member was the girl in the breakfast room.

We enjoyed our guide and tour. A couple of people on the tour kept walking off. Made it hard on our guide and everyone else on the tour.

Hello Kathy,

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review of your recent trip! I am thrilled that you enjoyed your guides, especially during the food tours and your time in Tuscany. It is great to hear that their knowledge enriched your experience.

I truly appreciate your hotel reviews and regret that Hotel Alba Palace did not meet expectations. Your feedback on room size, noise, and service is valuable, and I will share it with the hotel.

It was a pleasure working with you, and I look forward to helping you plan your next Italian adventure. Wishing you all the best!

Fabio
