What not to love about the 4F? This beautifully designed and appointed quiet boutique hotel overlooks the Arno River. It sits just a few blocks outside the tourist zone and is worth the extra five-minute walk. Our room was extremely large compared to a typical European hotel room, and the beds and pillows were very comfortable, too. In the morning, you can have eggs or crepes prepared to your liking, as well as having a variety of fresh and delicious pastries, bread, cheeses, and fruits. The pistachio yogurt was amazing! Besides being a beautiful and comfortable boutique hotel, the 4F staff was extremely kind, helpful, and accommodating with our questions or needs.
I look forward to returning to the 4F the next time I am in Florence.
