The Social Hub Florence Lavagnini

10/10 Excellent

"The Social Hub Hotel is very nice and comfortable and is located close to many restaurants, shopping and the train station. Our room was spacious and had a nice large bed and the bathroom was well appointed. The rooftop bar and pool area has an amazing view of the city. The hotel even offers free washers and dryers which was great as I was running out of clean clothes after several weeks of traveling. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay at the Social Hub again."

Hotel Santa Croce

10/10 Excellent

"The Hotel Santa Croce is owned and managed by two brothers Gabriel and Mario who are lovely and treat you like family. It was our second stay and we cant wait to return. Go to the restaurants they recommend!! We stayed in the studio off the main property and it felt like home - like we were truly Florentines. The hotel is located steps from the church of the same name where Galileo, Michelangelo, and Fermi, are laid to rest. Tour it! Gorgeous. Although its a very busy bustling neighborhood, we slept very well and got up ready for touring each day! Very walkable to the Duomo and the Pontevecchio Bridge in Florence. We will see you as soon as we can, Friends!!"
