The surrounding streets offer numerous restaurants, the Mercato Centrale (0.5 km), and a supermarket 2 minutes from the door. Despite the central bustle, the bedroom remains quiet when the door is closed.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book a room with direct access if mobility is a concern - the building does not have a lift.

  • 02

    Use the walkway from Santa Maria Novella station (10 mins) to avoid taxi costs; for early flights, take the tram from the centre to Florence Airport.

  • 03

    Reserve off-site parking well in advance because public parking costs €35/day and requires a reservation.
