We were very happy with the staff, ease of check in, cleanliness and overall comfort of our room. Would highly recommend this place for all these reasons but also because of proximity to train station.

Clean room, friendly staff, very well maintained. The location is great, directly opposite the train station.

Very good options for breakfast. Good service.

The only thing I didn’t like, which is normal for Italy is reusing the towels. When we left a dirty towel in the floor- it was placed back in the cabinet. Another thing, the bed is very uncomfortable.

What we liked most was the excellent location. After long days on our feet the train dropped us almost at the front door. Rooms are small, but very clean and comfortable. We had a wonderful time of rest there. I would recommended it to anyone who wants to see Florence and Pisa and only want to stay in one place.

Very clean, nice breakfast, very helpful staff

Quiet, convenient to station, nice decor choices, wonderful gracious owner who cares about his hotel. Elevator, good shower, refrigerator, safe. Convenient train connections from Empoli, so would stay again!

Its a nice convenient hotel right opposite to the station, staff are super freindly.

Excellent location, next to train station. Felt unsafe in the evenings.

Lovely family run hotel ideally located opposite rail station in Empoli. Ideal for visiting Florence, Pisa, Lucca and Sienna by train. Great value compared to city hotels. Empoli a lovely historic town a short walk from hotel. Breakfast inclusive with a buffet of cold meats, breads, pastries and lovely coffee.

The property is very clean, convenient to the transportation and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend the hotel.

As a solo traveller wanting to explore Tuscany, this hotel is perfectly placed for train and bus. Charming brother and sister giving help and advice if needed. My single room a bit small for a week, but all clean and nice bathroom. Thoroughly enjoyed my week there.

Exactly as described in the listing. 1 min walk from the Empoli train station. Gorgeous central super convenient and picturesque area. The front desk staff is wonderful especially Niccolo. Great eateries around. I'll definitely be visiting again. Easy and painless check in and check out. Rooms consistently smelled clean. Great water pressure and heat.

Room was well sized and clean. Comfortable for a few nights stay, with very easy access to Empoli city centre and the train station. The hotel staff were very attentive and accommodating - ensuring room was cleaned prior to our return (we had a couple of days where we went out for breakfast and were heading out to a wedding in the afternoon - they very kindly accommodated us!). Room cleaning was exceptional for this sort of hotel and very friendly. Spoken English was good. Nikolo was excellent and very helpful with taxis etc. We witnessed the air conditioning units receiving a deep clean, which seemed to be part of the usual cleaning service which was impressive.

We found the management of the hotel to be wonderful, friendly and very helpful on giving us guidance of where to eat and shop. They even went to the trouble to ring some of the business to assist us. The hotel is so close to the station and is about 25 min to Florence. The rooms are very comfortable warm and breakfast is a treat. Can’t recommend it highly enough, we loved 4 days here.

good

Fantastically helpful receptionist.

This hotel was perfect for what we needed. We were arriving for a wedding and needed somewhere clean and updated but reasonable to stay and this hotel exceeded our expectations. Our flight was delayed to Pisa and we missed the last train to Empoli, but thankfully I had emailed the hotel ahead of time incase of such an incident and they were beyond helpful, which felt like one last thing to worry about whilst we were stranded in Pisa in the early hours of the morning. So despite eventually getting to our hotel hours later than expected, they had anticipated every doubt or confusion we may have had getting into the hotel in their instructions, which made our arrival so hassle free. Check in was such an ease! Plus the owner and breakfast staff were so welcoming and charming. Thank you for making our stay a wonderful and easy experience! What a wonderful start to our holiday!

Chose Hotel Sole as convenient for visiting family in the area around Empoli. Staff at hotel very friendly and helpful, good breakfast selection. Beds and pillows very comfortable will certainly stay here again.

Hotel is very close to train station which is useful if you want to visit Tuscany
