Firenze Number Nine - central location + on site Spa

This four star hotel is so central that some rooms -such as this one - look out onto Brunelleschi's Cupola

This 4 star hotel in Florence has a lot going for it. First, its fabulous location that is extremely central: just minutes to Duomo, station and newly refurbished Mercato Centrale as well as being just a short walk to all other places of interest.

Want to relax at the end of the day?  Here there is an on-site luxury health spa with Turkish bath and sauna as well as access to the finest gym in Florence, right next door (all included!).

Getting a good night's sleep?  No problem!  Firenze Number Nine is on a pedestrian street so you won't have trouble with noisy traffic during the night (some rooms are even off a quiet courtyard with overlooking balcony).

And then there's the service of course.  You will be attended to by a professional competent staff (not stiff though, the workers here are very warm and smiley) who love helping their visitors appreciate Florence and navigate the city.

This is the right place for you if you like modern decor rich in parquet floors, marble baths, stucco and frescoed ceilings and fine design furnishings.  And, with only about 40 rooms, this accommodation is more boutique than large-scale luxury hotel.

where: via dei Conti, no. 9 (near Medici chapel)

Hotel Calzaiuoli - on the main drag

A room with view of Cupola at Hotel Calzaiuoli

Hotel Calzaiuoli is a wonderful option for a four star hotel in Florence that is right in the heart of town.

Via dei Calzaiuoli is considered the 'main drag' of Firenze, with some of the most popular shops and cafés right along the elegant street that leads into the beautiful Piazza Signoria, Florence's most important and spectacular square.

Also a no-car pedestrian zone, this accommodation offers rooms that are peaceful and quiet in spite of being right downtown.

With about 50 rooms, this is a medium-sized hotel with an elegant style, cozy feel and warm atmosphere. 

With all the modern conveniences, a rich breakfast buffet, and super handy location (you'll be just a 10 minute walk from all the main attractions!) Hotel Calzaiuoli is a winner.

Hotel Roma - in quaint quiet square downtown

Marble decor at Hotel Roma

Want to be central but not too much so?  Hotel Roma is perfect then!

Piazza Santa Maria Novella is literally minutes on foot from the station and all the most important sights, but is still a characteristic square that remains a bit 'off on its own'.

Located in an 18th century building, just around the corner from the historical 'Santa Maria Novella Perfumery', five minutes from the Duomo and surrounded by great cafès and restaurants, Hotel Roma offers a sophisticated and elegant ambience of antique wooden furniture and marble floors.

The piazza is one of the city's oldest and still maintains a certain antique charm.  Thanks to its oval shape, this square is where the Medici used to run their horse races and jousts during the renaissance making this option a fine compromise for those who want a convenient location with a historical setting.

Hotel Una Vittoria - something different...

Cool new design lighting system in the room at Una Vittoria Hotel

Hotel Una Vittoria is one of a kind. From the outside it looks like you're driving up to a country mansion in New Orleans, from the inside it looks like a modern night club!

advantages: the area is so full of character and authentic, on the south side of the river but just barely outside the historic center, this is a real locals' neighborhood full of genuine shops, restaurants and artisan workshops.   Absolutely lovely to walk from here to the main sights downtown.  Hotel itself gets a 10 for its novelty and daring to combine a classic elegant exterior with a funky state-of-the-art interior design. Off the tourist route but just 20 minute walk to center.

plus: on-site parking (€20 a day), hotel has a secluded private feel as it's behind private walls
