The Market Urban Hotel
The hotel is located at walking distance to major landmarks in Florence which is pretty convenience. We had excellent customer service and we really enjoy our 2 day stay in Florence! The breakfast bar was also outstanding. We really love this hotel and we’ll come back.

Aurum Firenze
Clean and tidy. Very close to main train station and easy walk to main attractions. The Duomo view picture is a bit cheeky as you can only see that from the breakfast room window.
