Hotel in Florence, in centro storico near Accademia and Duomo

Piccolo Hotel, Florence

This charming little B&B-style hotel in Florence is located in the 'centro storico', or the downtown city centre, just a few steps from the glorious Galleria dell'Accademia and the Duomo (cathedral). Despite its fantastic central location, the hotel is tucked away off the well-worn tourist track in a quiet and peaceful side street. It has recently undergone a comprehensive programme of renovation and offers excellent standards of service at competitive prices in a great location. This is a hotel with a difference, offering either self-catering or hotel accommodation with a flexible menu of services to suit all types of guest.

There are just ten well-appointed en-suite guest rooms at Florence's Piccolo Hotel, all with bathrooms. Rooms are decorated and furnished either in modern or classic style and offer LCD-screen satellite television, direct-dial telephone, safety deposit box and internet access. The entire hotel is comfortably air conditioned and bathrooms have both bathtub and shower as well as a fitted hairdryer. A fitted kitchenette adjoins each room, containing a microwave, fridge, espresso coffee machine and a selection of cookware and crockery for self-catering, and there is a separate seating and eating area.

The hotel offers a daily room-cleaning service and there are guest-laundry facilities located in the basement. There is also a small courtyard, where guests are free to relax. You'll discover friendly, efficient 24-hour service on the front desk, where guests will also find a safety deposit facility, a left luggage room, a tourist information and ticket reservation service and photocopying and fax facilities. There is also a useful valet parking service and a welcoming bar area where guests can enjoy a drink in comfortable, unhurried surroundings. Children under the age of two stay free of charge in their parents' room.
