Where to stay in the historic centre of Florence

Choosing where to stay in the centre of Florence radically changes how you experience the city. Staying inside the historic centre means waking up steps away from the Duomo, reaching museums and restaurants on foot, and enjoying Florence at its quietest — early in the morning and after sunset, when day-trippers have left for their hotels outside the city.

Le Stanze di Caterina is one of the most central B&Bs in Florence: it sits at Via dello Studio 12, a historic inner street inside the ZTL, just 50 metres from the Duomo di Santa Maria del Fiore. The property has three themed suites (Spanish, Italian, French), each with a private bathroom, ultra-fast free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, Smart TV, minibar and safe. The personal management of an elegant guest house with only three rooms ensures a curated and flexible welcome, far from the anonymity of large hotel chains.

A central Florence stay does have a specific catch: the ZTL means no private parking and no free car access. For this reason we provide detailed guidance on nearby public car parks and on the possible temporary ZTL access permits.
