The room had a fridge, air conditioner, and a personal safe which was super convenient. The location was great 👌. The pool was clean and there was parking available right at the hotel which was very handy.

We arrived at Hotel First in the midst of a heatwave, desperate for some relief from the sweltering temperatures. Thankfully, the air conditioning in our room was in perfect working order, providing us with a cool and comfortable sanctuary. The staff were attentive and promptly addressed any concerns we had, ensuring our stay was enjoyable. The location was convenient, allowing us to easily access the nearby attractions. The room was clean and the beds were incredibly comfortable, guaranteeing a good night's sleep. I highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant and hassle-free stay.

Very kind and helpful hotel staff; good breakfast.
The hotel is too old and not renovated. It would take a lot of imagination to rate it 4 stars - I would give it 3 stars max.

Easy to find, free parking, and usually free WiFi. Good location near Florence at a reasonable price. Fair breakfast, clean rooms, and comfortable bed. Dog-friendly and each bedside has a power outlet.

The hotel is near the highway but you dont hear the noise from it. The outside looks of the hotel does not reflect its good interior. The room was tidy and furnished in a modern stile. The bed was perfect i slept like a baby. Just in front of the hotel you have the bus station. The bus no. 2 takes you to the central train station santa maria novela in 35 - 40 min. The price of the ticket is 2 € in the bus and 1,2€ at the Tabaccaio.If you are with the car and wont to visit the rest of toscany the hotel is just for you. Afther the whole day of sightseeing a good sleep is priceless and the hotel gives you just that.Just one more thing the breakfast is excellent.

I stayed at Hotel First for a road trip and it was a perfect choice. The location is great for those with a car, as it's only a 20-minute drive from Florence city center and has easy access to the highway. The modern and clean rooms were very comfortable, and the price was competitive. The staff were friendly and the onsite restaurant had a good selection. The breakfast was delicious with plenty of options, and the reliable and fast wifi was a bonus. There's also a convenient bus stop just a minute away from the hotel.
Would recommend this hotel.

The hotel is good if you visit Florence with a car, because it has free parking and the bus station is near the hotel. The drive into the city with the bus is about a half hour depends on traffic. The last bus is driving against 23 o clock. The hotel is about 15 Km from Florence city center away. a Tip: you may book only the superior room, because these rooms are renovated. The hotel is a little older, but the rooms are renovated and clean. It has a swimming pool. For a city trip (2 nights) we can recommend this hotel, but only if you come with car.
old furniture, old carpet, very old elevator. Some students have a party next to the swimming pool under with loud music under our window (this was not so good). On the internet photos the hotel looks better than in reality

Good room (recently renovated), good breakfast.
Just two minor issues: the elevator is quite old and the wi-fi/internet was offline during several hours.
