Cheap hotels in Florence

Frequently asked questions about budget hotels in Florence

What does “cheap hotel” mean in Florence?

In Florence, "cheap" doesn't necessarily mean "bad": it often means a basic room, few extra amenities, and a location that's not ultra-central , but still convenient. The price depends heavily on the season, events, and area: the same hotel can be "cheap" in one period and much more expensive in another. To determine if a hotel is truly affordable, consider its location, connections, and included amenities .
You can find a list of low-cost hotels on the " cheap hotels in Florence " page.

What are the best areas to save money without being too far from the city center?

It's usually best to look just outside the historic center , in areas well-connected by bus or tram. Florence is a compact city: if you choose an area with frequent transportation, you can save a lot and reach the attractions quickly. Generally speaking, the closer you get to the Duomo/Uffizi, the higher the prices; moving a few stops further often means you'll find lower fares for the same services.

When is the best time to book to find cheap hotels in Florence?

The more popular the date, the higher the prices. If you're traveling during "hot" periods (spring, long weekends, etc.), booking in advance increases your chances of finding good rates. If you're flexible, you can often save money by choosing weekdays instead of weekends, or even by moving your dates slightly.

Which services really impact the price (and which can you avoid)?

The following are significant: super central location , breakfast included, parking/garage, large rooms, views, business services. If you want to save money, you can cut back on things you rarely use, such as breakfast (Florence is full of bars), or some extra amenities. On the other hand, some amenities are worth the cost: air conditioning in the summer , good soundproofing if you're sensitive to noise, and a stable Wi-Fi connection if you need it.

Is breakfast included worth it or is it better to eat it out?

If you want to save money, eating breakfast out is often a good option: you can choose from cafes and pastry shops, spend less, and try something traditional. However, including breakfast can be convenient if you're traveling with family or if you plan to leave early for museums and sightseeing. The right question is: how much do I really need?

How do you know if a budget hotel is truly convenient for visiting Florence?

Consider the actual distance to attractions and, above all, the connections: a non-central accommodation can be very convenient if close to useful stops or a strategic point. A tip: check how long it will take to reach 2–3 places you'll definitely visit (Duomo, Santa Maria Novella, Oltrarno). If the travel time is reasonable, it might be a good idea to opt for a property outside the city center.

What are the most common mistakes when looking for a budget hotel in Florence?

There are 3 typical errors:
- choose only based on price, ignoring location;
- fail to check the presence of essential services such as bathrooms, elevators, and air conditioning ;
- underestimate the “invisible” costs (transportation, parking, extra breakfast).
A slightly more expensive hotel but in a convenient area or with basic services may, in the end, be more convenient .
