The Market Urban Hotel
The hotel’s location is perfect—just a 3-minute walk from the train station and a 5-minute walk from the historic center of Florence. The room is a bit small, but it is very clean.

Hotel Delle Nazioni
Staff at check in and check out were friendly and helpful. Didn’t really talk to anyone else. Room was pretty loud even with window upgrades. Couldn’t cool off room so had the windows open when we could.
