“Wonderful people, lovely room, good location, excellent price”

Borgo al Cornio B&B

Nov 12, 2006
5/5 found this review helpful

5 Minutes from the train station (itself 25 minutes from Florence SM Station), in the heart of the medieval town centre, this lovely family-run B&B was the friendliest, cheapest and highest quality place we stayed. Our fastidiously clean room was well furnished and not too small, and the breakfast (including fresh pastries and home-brewed coffee) was very reasonable.

Though the family don't speak much English, they speak a little AND they are incredibly helpful. The language barrier was never a problem.

I would recommend this B&B to anyone. An excellent alternative to the sky-high prices of Florence.

“Wonderful little place Wonderful value”

Borgo al Cornio B&B

4/4 found this review helpful

This B&B is actually called the "Borgo al Cornio". Whoever listed the place made a little mistake in the spelling which could be a problem for those of you who are trying to find the website (which incidently is ---).
This is a fantastic little place - very welcoming and clean and very close to the main piazza in the lovely historic centre of Prato. It is also very close to the Prato Porta al Serraglio station which means that the centre of Florence is only 20 minutes away - so why would you pay 200 euro plus for a room in Florence (with grumpy staff who are sick of tourists) when you could stay at this lovely place for 50 euros. Also Prato itself is full of historic interest, great dining possibilities and shopping.

Spent four nights here. Almost new, spotless. Family run and as warm hearted as could be. Two blocks from train station, 18 minutes from Florence. Great sights and restaurants right here.
