Florence charms with its sun-drenched piazzas, winding cobbled streets, and Renaissance masterpieces around every corner. Beyond the famous Duomo and Uffizi, the city offers a surprisingly affordable side for travellers who know where to look. From cosy boutique hotels tucked near the Arno to well-priced stays just steps from lively squares, our Guru’s picks of the 10 best value hotels in Florence put you in the heart of it all. Visit in summer and you’ll still find deals, but off-season travel often scores the sweetest rates—and quieter streets to enjoy this iconic city.
