RESIDENZA SAN LORENZO FIRENZE, Florence

This property occupies a prime central position, right between Florence's main train station (Santa Maria Novella, a 5-8 minute walk) and the Duomo. All major sights - Ponte Vecchio (1 km), the Uffizi Gallery, and the Accademia Gallery (8 minutes) - are easily reached on foot. The location is surrounded by restaurants, grocery stores, and the vibrant San Lorenzo Market, while the street market outside adds authentic local atmosphere. Despite being in a busy area, the rooms are noted for being quiet. The train station proximity allows for effortless day trips and easy luggage transfers on arrival.

Accommodation ranges from double and twin rooms (with 2 single beds or 1 queen bed plus a single) to a Studio and a one-bedroom Apartment. The Studio includes a kitchenette with stovetop, refrigerator, and microwave, as well as a washing machine - ideal for longer stays or families. Non-Studio rooms include a fridge and tea/espresso machine. Daily housekeeping is provided, beds are made, and towels are changed every two days. Some rooms face the market street, but overall the accommodation is described as quiet and comfortable. Note there is no lift, so rooms on the first or second floor require climbing stairs. Beds are noted as comfortable, and bathrooms are modern and clean.

The property does not provide a cooked breakfast, yet a common-area Nespresso machine and kettle are available for complimentary coffee and tea (capsules are restocked daily in the room). The location directly above the San Lorenzo Market - steps from numerous restaurants, cafés, and food stalls - means high-quality dining is immediately accessible. Within a 300-metre radius are Ristorante Le Fonticine, Ristorante La Falterona, and many other dining options. The Mercato Centrale, a three-minute walk, offers a wide food hall with fresh produce and diverse cuisines open until late.

The property operates a fully self check-in system: instructions, a video, and access codes are sent via WhatsApp before arrival.
