Florence is a very touristic town but its touristic season lasts all year round. And as it's not so big city such as Rome, Milan, London or Paris, finding a lodging in Florence may be really hard and expensive (when the only choices left are only extra luxury hotels). And this may happen in every period of the year.
This is a list of hotels that we managed to have a deal with for more convenient fares for our attendees. We hope you can find a suitable choice for all your needs.
Additional note: in all the reported hotels children are welcome.
Pets too except The Social Hub.
Please remember to insert our discount code when requested in the reservation process to obtain the cheaper fare reserved to our attendees!
