The Social Hub Florence Lavagnini

10/10 Excellent
"Helpful and friendly staff, fun facilities (yes, you really do need swings in the entrance!) Small but perfectly formed rooms. Lots of space to work or relax around the hotel, fantastic selection for breakfast, great rooftop bar and pool. Easy walking distance into the town centre and main station, and the tram stop just outside takes you directly to the airport in about 25 min."
