Best hotels in Florence 2022: Where to stay for culture and comfort

Florence, it’s important to pace yourself. It may be a small city, but it’s so full of treasures that it can be overwhelming: the magnificent Duomo; lavish rooms in the Pitti Palace; works by Michelangelo, Fra Angelico, Raphael . . .

the list is endless. You can’t see everything and attempting to do so is futile. Allow yourself time to browse the shops, stroll along the Arno, sip coffee and people-watch as well.

Staying in the city centre obviously makes exploring easier, and there’s plenty of accommodation to choose from, ranging from high-end hotels and classy B&Bs to simple pensione and self-catering apartments.

To escape the throngs of tourists at night, pick one of the luxury establishments on the outskirts – they usually have tranquil gardens and Insta-perfect views of the Tuscan hills.
