(3) 8KG washers, (2) 16KG washers & (4) 17KG driers. The washer cost is 4.50€/7.50€ respectively. Wash time is 35 minutes. The dryer is 1€/10min. There is (1) vacuum for 1€/4min. Free WiFi! Very clean inside. Nice, new machines (this place opened in the last couple years) Detergent costs 1€ in a vending machine that only accepts coins. There are other various soaps as well (softener, white brighteners, etc) There are (8) different washing programs: see picture. There is no change machine here and you do not pay to use the machines directly on the washer or dryer. You pay a central machine then select the respective washer/dryer number. It’s essentially a fancy, modern change machine. You can pay with bills (5s, 10s & 20s only) and coins. Maximum change is 20€ and coins only which is very nice and allows for a lot of flexibility for paying! No credit/debit cards accepted. Directions are all in English which is very nice.

Nice laundromat. Very clean, ample clean counter space for folding, clean bins for transferring wet clothes to dryer, good signage, free WiFi and a small library of books to read while you wait. If you don’t want to read, there’s a nice wine bar across the street (Nabucco). However, it is the highest price of laundromats in the area (4.5 euro for a 8kg washer, vs. 3.5 at other places). One other person noted there were no dryer sheets in the vending machine (I don’t use them.) Did my clothes here twice and was happy. Note: follow the instructions on the sign carefully - it is not intuitive and I lost money the first time by not reading and following the instructions.

  • Monika Patel

Quieter than then the hostel laundry room. Someone tried to use machine 4, but it didn’t work and took the money. I also tried to buy bio powder from the dispenser and it took my money twice with no change because the numbers weren’t in sync with the machine so watch out for that! Also had a poor cockroach lying on its back flailing its legs trying to get back up. There was no one to help when I went like mentioned in the other reviews. Wash took 25ish mins and it’s a euro for a 10 min drying cycle and I did 2. But it’s a self service laundromat so you get what you expect!

  • Jonathan Wallace

Never thought I would review a launderette but credit where credit is due. Great place to wash and dry your clothes! Very helpful couple work there. Total cost for a small/medium load was€7.50 including drying and folding! Basically ended up dropping it off and going off around Florence for an hour and it was ready when I returned. They were also proud to let me know that Michael Jordan and LeBron James got their laundry done there when they were in town too!!!

  • Matthew Smith

Just put my washing on (25/7/23) machine started, came back before it was meant to finish and the clothes had not been soaked, detergent was still visible and not used. Had to pay and start the machine again, fortunately this time the machine started with water visibly pouring into the machine. Disappointing when most of the reviews rated this laundry highly which I why I chose this place. Tried calling and messaging the number in the shop with no answer

  • Jesse Kim

Don’t go!! All broken machines, owner avoids calls. Followed the instructions with the money machine that enables washing machines and did not work. Tried calling the business several times and they didn’t pick up, only after few tries owner blocked my call. Lost 15 euro and no laundry!! Totally scammy. There’s much newer and cheaper place two blocks down. 16kg machine here is 7.50 euro, Express Wash offers 14kg machine for 5 euro and they all work!

  • Nicole A

Questa lavanderia, magistralmente gestita da una coppia di marito e moglie dedicati, è una vera novità in una città dove è difficile trovare servizi di lavanderia affidabili. Offrendo servizi di alta qualità a 7,50€ per un carico consistente, oltre all'opzione di lavaggio a peso e consegna senza problemi, è una scelta di spicco. La stiamo scegliendo come nostra opzione principale per la lavanderia e dovresti farlo anche tu!

  • Valentina Fitzpatrick

Your search for the best and economic service delivered by wonderful Ilaria and Luca! Very clean , you get help in using everything, you don't need soap and you get beautifully cleaned clothes. Don't waist your money on hotel services - this is much better and you get to meet two wonderful people and have a great chat about Florence and the hidden gems while waiting for your laundry 5 star Valentina and Darragh canning

  • Chris Estel

The owners are a very sweet, welcoming, and helpful couple who not only helped us figure out how to use the machines, but also made a wonderful recommendation for where to get pizza. My wife and I speak almost no Italian, but they were able to assist us with our large amount of laundry and we felt comfortable enough with them to leave our laundry while we went and got pizza. Highly recommend!!

  • Ilaria Magherini

Bella lavanderia pulita e le macchine funzionano molto bene . Le istruzioni sono facili da seguire e c'è anche wi fi . Avevo da fare una lavatrice di colorati e bianchi e consolo una lavatrice ho fatto un bel bucato senza rovinare niente spendendo davvero il giusto che non guasta mai. Grazie ai proprietari di avere messo un posto del genere la consiglio davvero a tutti

  • Shannon B

Stopped here to do a quick couple of loads before dropping our bags off at the hotel. The machines are quick and do a good job! Lots of options for clothing types. The owners were there to help us with the machines. Very very friendly! They take cash up to 20 euro and it gives you change when you select the wash and cycle, no cards accepted.

  • chris Lopez

Great place….This is a very clean and welcoming spot. The owners were very informative of local food/entertainment while we waited even helped load the clothes at times. Especially Luca (owner) about motorcycles and Lebron James. 2 loads of laundry wash/dry 10€….. they sell laundry products if you need. No cards , cash and coins only

  • Jorge Escobar

Lave la ropa sucia de una maleta de mano estándar, la lavada vale 4.50 euros y un ciclo de 10 minutos de secado en 1 euro. Un euro extra por jabón líquido, y otro extra si deseas suavizante. Me parece un precio bastante adecuado. Le puse cuatro estrellas ya que al ser autoservicio, puede resultar confuso y no hay nadie para apoyarte.

  • Claudia Asta

The wash and dry Il delfino is a perfect place where to bring your laundry. The machines are new, the environment is clean, the owners are always available. I manage apartments for tourists and I advise anyone to use Il Delfino laundry service: clean linen, respect for time and friendliness. All you need to work well!!

  • Martin Ruel

Les propriétaires sont très gentils et ils aident à utiliser les machines. Ils ont pris le temps aussi de discuter avec nous sur les choses autour dans le quartier. Les prix sont tres corrects. Ils ont le wifi gratuit, une distributrice pour acheter su savon et une distributrice de monnaie pour échanger les billets.

  • Gil Smith

Luca and Elaina Maria the owners are the friendliest people. They will help you do your wash and -or guide you thorough what do to. You can feel safe leaving your clothes in the machine and coming back. They are always working. I encourage everyone to visit here for your laundry needs. They speak some english.

  • JTR

Great laundry for those on extended travels. Owners speak enough English to get you through the process and will dry and fold for another two Euro. They stick around until 1400 so you can drop off early and pickup after lunch without a worry. One load + dry and fold for €6.50! Great deal and great owners.

  • Jessica Flavel

Super helpful lady who showed us how to use the machines and helped us with the payment process. She was so lovely. The washing machines were great too. Wasnt pricey at all! Only made us pay 10 cents for the detergent too but im not sure thats the normal pricey. I think its normally 1 euro. Very happy!

  • Hector Vera

Ando en viaje familiar , y comprenderán que se acumula mucha ropa sucia . No nos equivocamos : los dueños estaban presentes, muy dispuestos a ayudar , dejamos lavando y ellos mismos secaron y nos dejaron la ropa doblada dentro del bolso !!! No saben cuánto apreciamos el gesto . Recomendable 100% !!!

  • Vrutin Tarunchandra

Nice and clean. The owner is very helpful and will guide if you don’t understand. You can buy detergent right from the laundry at a reasonable price (1 euro), great if you’re tourist and have no idea where to buy such stuff. 4 Euro for 8KG wash 7 Euro for 16KG wash 1 Euro for 12 minutes of drier

  • 屎拉皮

The shop owner was helpful (if he wasn’t there I think we would have a hard time with the paying process) and the price was nice, 2 euros for drying!!! When we got back we found out that the clothes were all folded and packed (!) We highly appreciate and recommend this place :)

  • Letizia Tarchiani

Non esiste in centro una lavanderia self service, così accogliente, funzionale e pulita, come questa! I detergenti forniti sono ottimi! L'ambiente a luminoso e i proprietari sono sempre pronti ad aiutare qualora si fosse poco abituati all' uso delle lavatrici!! La consiglio!!!

  • Yan Lin

This place is very neat, owner is welcoming. Price is reasonable,7.5 euro for washing and drying. Owner offered to helping with drying so we could find a cool place to relax (35 degree ). We came back around an hour, he’s folding the laundry for us. Can not expect more.

  • Ellen Sun

The place was very clean and well-kept. The owners spoke English and showed me how to operate the washer and the dryer from their central machine. You have to purchase the detergent packet from the vending machine. Overall, it was a very pleasant stress free experience!

  • Diana Prieto

Best laundry service ever and free! Machines are less expensive than others, clean and brand new. Place is very clean as well. Place os kind of hidden, but it's well worth the walk. Owner did the laundry for me, and i came back to get it dried and folded! AMAZING!

  • Loredana Hovard

Best laundromat in Florence. Luca and Ilaria are great and very helpfully. They even fold your clothes, you can just drop them off there. Since I’m going there they have make my life much easier with my Airbnb. I would highly recommend them and thank them a lot .

  • Karen Kim

We needed a place to wash our week worth of clothes. Luckily, this laundromat was around the corner of our hotel. The owner of the laundromat helped me set up the washer. He was very nice and helpful. I definitely recommend coming here for your travel washes!

  • Aron Downing

Great place to do your laundry after a couple of weeks travelling. Easy to follow instructions and when you are lacking in caffeine to understand them staff available to assist. Thoroughly recommend if you are travelling and in need of some clean clothes

  • jose lopez

Encantadores. Después de 7 días de viaje necesitábamos hacer la colada, con la gran suerte de encontrar este lugar y encontrarse los dueños. Han estado ellos pendientes en todo momento para que nosotros pudiéramos irnos a dar un paseo. 100% recomendable

  • Rossella L. (unonessunocentomila)

Non ho mai scritto recensioni sulle lavanderie, soprattutto quelle a self service, ma era d'obbligo scriverla, perché i proprietari sono persone fantastiche, gentili, disponibili, molto alla mano e soprattutto onesti! Inoltre è veramente … Altro

  • Randy Fambrough

Same experience. This is a self service laundry that takes euros as well as credit and debit cards. However the owners are there to assist and will even fold your clothes if you are not there to do so. I had to insist on tipping them.

  • Guy Park

Wow...have never had an owner of a laundromat offer to dry our clothes and fold them while we go explore the city. This little place is a gem. Run by a couple, they were very helpful. Definately recommend this to anyone in the area!

  • Dana Rossi Fuss

Nice place to do laundry. It opens very early and the owners are very nice. They actually told us to return an hour later, they took care placing our clothes in the dryer. Make sure to bring cash, there's no credit option.

  • Mel Biddle

This was such a nice experience! The couple were there at 7am and helped me so much to operate the machines. The washing and drying machines were efficient. It only took an hour to wash and dry a full load. Thank you!!

  • Carmen F “ArteDulce19”

Proprietari professionali, gentilissimi e pronti a ricevere e consegnare biancheria. Disponibili a farsi contattare per qualsiasi problema a qualsiasi ora del giorno. Consiglio questa lavanderia per l'ottimo servizio.

  • Reid Bishop

Luca went out of his way to help me with my laundry, watching it for me while I was gone, changing it from the washer to the dryer, and even folding my clothes. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you!!

  • Zerah

Just a normal working laundry mat! Tips for using the machine - 1. put cash in first (if you don’t have cash, there is an ATM out front) 2. Type machine number and press enter 3. Go to machine and press start.

  • Aminah Hamid

It wasn't clean, and most of the knobs on the machines were gone for the dryer. Be sure to select the setting of wash before you insert the coins. The machine didn't let me change the cycle once it started.

  • Florencia Caviglia

Ciao ! Vorrei sapere come funziona il servizio di lavanderia. Le macchine sono alimentate da uno? O lo fanno i dipendenti locali? E qual è il valore per il lavaggio? La ringrazio per la risposta. Saluti!

  • Keith Watson

This is a great Laundry we took most of our travelling clothes there today and had them washed and dried in about an hour. The owners were incredibly helpful and fun to deal with. Definitely recommend.

  • elena mazzucco

Great service! The owners are very nice and always available to help me, the place is clean and machines too. I've been using this laundry for 6 months now and never had a issue. Definitely reccomend!

  • Miguel Rodríguez

Great clean laundromat!!!! The owners were extremely helpful and hospitable! They even offered me coffee. I felt very safe and comfortable. Prices were very reasonable.

  • Alpha Society

Wonderful family business. The owners are very nice and if you meet them ask them to share with you the story of LeBron James when he needed a laundromat in Florence.

  • Jesse Kyser

Beware! The machines stopped at 11 pm despite leaving our clothes wet after another dryer didn’t work! Wasted our euros and left us with wet clothes. Go elsewhere.

  • Nick Karpen

Nice and clean. Everything is labeled in English. Soap and other supplies available for purchase. Great prices. Doesn’t take credit or bank cards so bring euros.

  • Joseph Sulca

Lavanderia molto pulita!! Proprietario molto cortese, sempre disponibile se lo trovi in lavanderia, parla inglese e un po di spagnolo, lo consiglio a tutti!

  • Yen_deulre옌들레

진짜,, 주인아저씨 빨래 맡기고 다녀오라고 하셨는데 처음 빨래하는 청바지 들도 다 따로 해주시고 건조기 까지 다 옮겨서 건조도 해주셨는데,, 심지어 빨래 다 개서 가방에 넣어주셨다,, 너무 감사드리고 진짜 복 많이 받으세요,, 여행 중에 가장 행복한 기억입니다,,ㅠㅠ

  • Zach C

Good laundry for traveller. Washer and dryer available. With English tutorial on how to operate Cheap and have free wifi. Have AC inside too! Great!

  • J D

Servizio nella media ma è impossibile che alle undici il locale fosse già sporchissimo. Se ti cade qualcosa per terra dalla lavatrice è da buttare.

  • Farishtay Yamin

My laundry bag was stolen from here and when I called the emergency number to let them know, the phone was picked up twice but no one said anything
