Florence hotels for you

If you need to watch your wallet, then it is worth considering the B&B 5 Sensi hotel. It is located in the historical centre of Florence and is close to many cultural and artistic sites. It is a simple hotel set within a 19th-century palace, and each of its five rooms is named after one of the senses! Pretty cool, hey! A night in a double room with a shared bathroom is around £40. If you prefer your own private amenities then it will cost about £60.

A mid-range option that is comfortable and stylish is the recently renovated Hotel Lombardi. It is conveniently located on a quiet road near Santa Maria Novella railway station and bus terminal. It is also a mere 10 minute walk from the Duomo cathedral. It has beautifully decorated rooms and a great breakfast! A double room with breakfast included in the tariff is about £90 per night.
