There’s a lot of debate on where to stay when travelling to Florence. Some people swear by hotels in the city centre, while others recommend looking outside of the city. Central Florence hotels have a lot of advantages that can make your stay in the city a lot more enjoyable.
For starters, most of the sights and attractions are located within walking distance of the city centre. This means that you won’t have to waste time travelling to and from your hotel. Additionally, most of the major cultural events and concerts take place in the city centre, so it’s the best place to be if you want to be close to the action.
Central Florence hotels are also typically in smaller, more intimate buildings, as opposed to the large chain hotels that can be found on the outskirts of the city. This means that you’re more likely to get a personalised service and feel like you’re staying in a real Florentine home.
Finally, the cost of staying in a central Florence hotel is often cheaper than staying in a hotel on the outskirts of town. This is especially true if you book in advance. So if you’re looking for a convenient, affordable and enjoyable place to stay in Florence, a central hotel is the best bet.
