Hotel Regina, Florence
This hotel in Florence provides basic, well-maintained accommodation in a central location. The Hotel Regina is convenient for sightseeing and dining out in the city's many fine restaurants or informal trattorias. The San Lorenzo district, where the hotel is situated, is within the historic town centre and is home to many of the best-known monuments. San Lorenzo church has an elegantly modest interior designed by Brunelleschi, which includes bronze pulpits by Donatello as well as the contrastingly eccentric Biblioteca Laurenziana, by Michelangelo. Many more works by Michelangelo can be seen at the nearby Medici Chapel, such as the Medici tombs and his last-ever sculpture of the Madonna and Child.
The district is also famous for its vast covered market, the Mercato Centrale, where you can pick up tasty local delicacies or buy supplies for a picnic. Within walking distance of the hotel you can also see Botticelli's Birth of Venus at the Uffizi Gallery, Michelangelo's David at the Galleria dell'Accademia or Galileo's scientific apparatus at the Museo di Storia della Scienza. While Florence is famous throughout the world for its outstanding collections of classical art, it also has a Galleria d'Arte Moderna, which mainly contains the work of Tuscan impressionist artists.
This one-star Florence hotel has helpful and well-informed staff, who are more than happy to book museum tickets, order taxis or acquire travel information. There is a nearby garage for guests to use and the bedrooms are available with or without en-suite bathroom depending on your budget. A traditional Italian breakfast is included in the cost of the room.
