Authentic Italy - Best-Value Lodgings - City-Center Lodgings

   
Character: Charming guestrooms in a private home in downtown Florence.
Advantages: Great chance to interact with the locals.
Location: In Florence at Piazza Beccaria. Walk to everything in 15-20 minutes, plus this is a residential neighborhood so the shops and restaurants are aimed at locals more than tourists. Click here to see a map.
Once upon a time (in 2007!), there was a charming young woman who lived in a large apartment in downtown Florence. The many rooms opened onto a secluded garden where her black cat loved to play. The young woman soon realized that she did not need all those rooms, and having learned a little English, she decided to renovate one wing of the house into a B&B. The result is a home away from home with a sitting room, three bedrooms with their own bathrooms, and of course, the private garden where guests can come together and decompress after a busy day of sightseeing in the cultural capital of the world.

Rooms: Only four! On the ground floor, Rose has a wrought-iron queen bed, a table with whimsical king and queen chairs, and a bathroom with walk-in shower. Wisteria is the same, with an original fresco on the ceiling. Ivy is smaller, and has a double bed suitable for one person. It does not have a bathroom, but when combined with Wisteria, next door, it makes a perfect Family Room for three people. Our favorite room is downstairs, and although it is in the basement, you'd never know it because plenty of sun comes through the windows. This totally private suite has an entry with settee, a beautiful bedroom with queen bed and delightful furniture, and a bathroom with whirlpool tub. It is totally quiet and quite romantic!
   
   
Features: Air conditioning and wireless Internet access. Bathrooms have stall showers and hair dryers.
   
   
Facilities: Garden and gazebo; fresh continental breakfast in your room, in the living room or in the garden; public garage parking very nearby for 18 Euro/day.
