Historic Building Location
Hotel Bijou Roof Terrace occupies the third floor of a 19th-century Florentine building with blue shutters and decorative balconies, less than 200 meters from Santa Maria Novella Station. The hotel's glass front door is accessed via an old-fashioned wooden elevator.
Rooms with Essentials
All rooms include air conditioning, free WiFi, a flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower, bidet, and hairdryer. Some rooms have balconies facing the street or wooden window frames. Family and quadruple rooms are available, each with a tea and coffee maker, wardrobe, and safe deposit box.
Rooftop Terrace Views
The brick-lined rooftop terrace offers panoramic views of Florence's terra cotta rooftops and distant mountains. Furnished with patio furniture and potted plants, it's a spot for sunbathing and continental breakfast.
Nearby Landmarks & Dining
The hotel is a 5-minute walk from Mercato Centrale and 1.5 km from the Uffizi Gallery and Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. The area has many restaurants and shops. Free parking is available in a nearby garage.
Multilingual Staff Services
The family-run hotel's staff speaks English, Spanish, and French, providing tourist information on food and wine tours in Florence and Tuscany. A modest meeting room fits up to 20 people. All guests, including children, must present a government-issued photo ID at check-in.
“Bijou's rooftop garden proved the clincher for me; the city view is truly special. Location couldn't be better-moments from the train station and a stroll to the Duomo. Rooms are clean and modern, and the staff clearly care.”
