«Who runs B&B Marbò Florence?»
I’m Alessandro, and together with my family I have been working in Florentine hospitality for over ten years. Ours is a family-run business: a team with more than twenty years of experience on average, and a tradition that began with my father and, before him, my uncle.
We know how to make a stay simple and welcoming, leaving nothing to chance, with all the care needed for your room to be ready exactly as you need it when you arrive. Our organisation lets us look after every guest with the same attention throughout the year, high season included.
Come and visit Florence, and stay with us at Marbò Florence.
