BOOK EARLY

Florence is one of Italy's most popular destinations, and the best hotels and apartments often sell out months in advance.

We recommend booking accommodations as soon as possible, especially properties that offer free cancellation.


Our favorite site for hotels, apartments, and vacation rentals is: Booking.com


Before booking, always verify the location on a map. Many properties listed as "Florence" are actually located well outside the city center.


For most guests, we recommend staying within a 20-minute walk of the Duomo.

WHERE SHOULD I STAY IN FLORENCE?

Florence is extremely walkable, but choosing the right neighborhood can make a big difference.


Price Guide:

$ = Budget-Friendly

$$ = Moderate

$$$ = Premium

$$$$ = Luxury


Duomo/Historic Center ($$$ to $$$$): Best for first-time visitors

Stay here if you want to be in the heart of Florence, surrounded by major attractions, restaurants, shopping, and gelato.


Santa Maria Novella ($$ to $$$): Best overall value

Located near Florence's main train station and within walking distance of the Duomo. Ideal for guests planning day trips throughout Italy.


Santa Croce ($$ to $$$): Best food & nightlife

A lively neighborhood filled with great restaurants, wine bars, and local atmosphere while still being close to the major sights.


Oltrarno/Santo Spirito ($$ to $$$): Best local experience

A quieter, more authentic side of Florence known for artisan shops, beautiful streets, and excellent restaurants.


San Niccolò ($$$ to $$$$): Best views & romance

A charming neighborhood near Piazzale Michelangelo with beautiful scenery and a more relaxed atmosphere.

OUR RECOMMENDATION

If you're unsure where to stay, we recommend:

Duomo / Historic Center (best for first-time visitors)

Santa Maria Novella (best overall value)


These areas offer the easiest and most convenient experience for the majority of guests.


Looking to save money? Consider staying in Santa Maria Novella or Oltrarno, booking early, and comparing prices of an apartment or vacation rental to hotels! Florence is very walkable, so staying a few blocks farther from the Duomo can often save a significant amount without sacrificing convenience.

Can I Stay Near the Venue?

We are currently working with our venue to secure recommended accommodations closer to the wedding venue for guests who prefer not to stay in central Florence.
