I had the rooftop suite which had amazing 300-degree views (3 of the 4 windows were straight-glass) of the city and Duomo. It was such a treat to have this amazing terrace to enjoy the view and have friends over for a glass of wine. The B&B was centrally located and close to the city market, all the main historical attractions and restaurants and shops. The hostess Anna Maria was attentive and helpful with recommendations of where to go and always very attentive. Even though the stairs up to the suite were harrowing at times, I would certainly return here every time I come back to Venice.

I am a little concerned that I started getting bites that started when I stayed there, that looked like bed bug bites rather than mosquito bites. But understandable that it's an issue, given the boon of travelers flooding through Europe post-Covid. But other than that, an amazing stay and place.

The host was very nice and extremely helpful with parking and sightseeing instructions. She served a very nice breakfast - brought right to the room. The bathroom was newly renovated and very modern. The room itself was very cramped as we were 3 occupants - we should have booked a larger area.

If you are expecting the room posted on the website - you (as were we) will be very disappointed. There apparently is only 1 room that looks like that and has that view. Suggest before you book you ask for photos of the room you will be assigned. Website notes private entrance - this is not entirely correct. There are apparently some units that are individual apartments, but we had to enter into the host apartment to access our room. I suggest you read the details of all the other rooms to understand what you will get. Host stated that booking.com does not allow her to post all apartment photos, but I beg to differ as there are multiple photos from other properties that we stayed at.

Anna-Maria (among other languages also German-speaking) is a great host. Without her especially restaurant recommendations and reservations, we would have been completely lost - she was always available when we needed her. The accommodation itself is in an artsy and beautiful old building apartment. Our room had a nice terrace with a wonderful view over Florence and especially the Duomo di Firenze. Although we had to walk up some stairs to our room, the host made sure that we did not need to carry our bags ourselves. Tasty breakfast and coffee was even offered to bed. Thank you for your hospitality!

Anna Maria was very nice, she was an excellent host. She made very nice breakfast, drew us maps for the city, she was constantly reachable by phone to help us when we were lost in the city

Well, it is little expensive for a bed and breakfast

Anna Maria was beyond helpful, such a wonderful host, she provided so much information and helped us so much throughout our stay. The room itself was stunning and the view from the balcony was surreal. Full fridge and wardrobe with plenty of hangers included in the room, cute little private bathroom next door (also amazing views!). The building was beautiful with an old elevator to get you up to the B&B. Very convenient location, everything is easily walkable. We fell in love with Florence and will definitely be back and wouldn't hesitate returning to Artemente.

Not a con just a warning, we stayed in the room at the top and would definitely recommend it but be aware of the stairs! They are narrow and it was a little tricky getting our small cabin sized suitcases up them so wouldn't want to have a larger case to carry up! Once you get up the stairs it's worth it!

Location and owners helpfulness in looking up local places.

We couldn’t leave our luggage until much later than 10am checkout time

Everything: The beautiful host Annamarie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Location!!!!!! Comfort & convenience & amenities!!!!! The water! Very special water—actually the best! I love the decor —all art, restoration, this place is a museum!!!! The host wants to enhance your traveling experience. Soooooooooooooo helpful & generous. She’s a dream. I shall return!

The heat in Florence. So warm. I’m sorry I stayed ONLY four nights:/

Very neat and well maintained property. Around 8-9 mins walk from the Florence(Firenze) SM Novella station. The apartments have all facilities including a coffee maker, water dispenser and hot running water. It also has elevators which are missing from my buildings. Anna is a lovely host and made sure we were comfortable. Would surely like to visit again.

Nothing much. The price is on the higher side but I guess that’s the case with most hotels around. Overall, nothing to complain about. Had a great stay.

Excellent location. Anna Maria was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay and the view from our room was amazing! The cold bottle of Prosecco in our fridge on arrival was much appreciated and consumed on the terrace, taking in the views before heading out for dinner.

Unfortunately the coffee machine in our room broke the day before our arrival and we couldn’t get the overhead shower to work properly (plumber was called) but we could still use the other shower adapter.

We had the suite which is on the fourth floor and is a large room with a balcony overlooking Florence all the way to the Duomo, refrigerator, coffee maker, shower (in room itself) and a very small bathroom directly outside of the room. There is an elevator that takes you to reception and the main apartments and then there is a narrow staircase that goes up to the suite.We loved our stay and the view was worth the stair climbing twice a day. The suite is not suitable for anyone with mobility issues and the owner will tell you this when you rent the room. It was charming and though it is close to the train station, very quiet. Very easy to walk into the center!
