Snuffleupagus Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 I don't know which hotel it is, but I would hop on that! I've been looking at May and the 5*'s are ~225. See if it's close to the city center because there are some 5*'s outside of the city that are probably a pain to get to. Link to comment
davey l Posted April 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 It's in city center ( 0.0-1.0) I checked tripadvisor and tried to narrow it down. But the amenities throw me off. There's no close match Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 Best guess is a new amenity set for the Montebello Splendid Florence.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

davey l Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I decided that needing two rooms its too expensive. Thanks for your reply.I going to start a new tread with a four star. Link to comment
davey l Posted May 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 Looking at 4* Florence for 7/27 - 7/30 two rooms 2 adults in each.$105.00 per nightAmenities areComplimentary Breakfast Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Any ideas? Thanks Link to comment
Romelle Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 I'm not seeing that Florence reporting now. Which area was it?When I've watched other foreign city Hotwire offerings, they seem to change very rapidly. Also, there aren't a lot of Florence wins reported here. I think you'd be wise to keep the reported wins list open when you are looking, see if you can find a match just for information, and then just jump on the deal if it is a good one. Whether or not you find a match. Summertime deals in Florence are pretty rare.Romelle Link to comment
MadFlyer Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 That hotel is showing a 4.5 tripadvisor rating and could be any of eight hotels in central Florence. If that was showing for the dates I need, I would grab it imediately. It can not get that level of rating easily in Florence and all the hotels coming up have over 200 reviews at 4.5. I have noticed in both Florence and Venice that I get better inventory with 2 rooms selected as is the case here. This hotel does not come up with one room selected. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Una Hotel Vittoria Florence would be at least one possibility among the likely outcomes, and this would be my best guess for this one.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

davey l Posted May 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 Thanks for your replies!Went back into hotwire using your links for same dates 7/27-7/30 2 rooms 3 nights and a four star in Florence East - Bagno a Ripoli area hotel came up for $91.00 a night (other sites $204) amenities areFree Parking Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center Laundry Facilities (self-service) High-Speed Internet Access Went on to Travelocity punched in those dates and using filters with these amenities Il Mulino di Firenze came up with a price of $204.00What's your thoughts?

thereuare Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 I don't think this is the Il Mulino di Firenze.The HOTWIRE property you're seeing is showing a 3.0/5.0 rating from Tripadvisor which is not really that good... i would look elsewhere if you have other options.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

MadFlyer Posted May 5, 2012 Report Share Posted May 5, 2012 This would appear to be the Sheraton Firenze with the free parking, pool and 3 tripadvisor rating. Link to comment
