| Florence Archi Rossi Hostel Recommendation

This May, we chose to stay at the Archi Rossi Hostel in Florence. Located at Via Faenza 94R, it's super convenient, just a 10-minute walk from the train station. 🏨 The location is top-notch! It's within walking distance of major attractions like the Duomo, Piazza del Duomo, and Ponte Vecchio. There are also plenty of great restaurants and bars in the area, perfect for a leisurely stroll after dinner. The hotel's decor is a feast for the eyes, with murals inspired by masters from different centuries, creating an artistic atmosphere. Amenities include 24/7 hot and cold water dispensers and high-speed Wi-Fi, making it easy to relax or work. The reception staff were very welcoming, and the check-in process was smooth. There's also a dedicated team in the lobby to help with any questions and plan your itinerary, which is truly thoughtful. We booked a dorm with 8 beds, but luckily, there were only 2 of us, so we had plenty of space. Each person gets their own locker and a comfortable bed. The room has a private bathroom and air conditioning, so it doesn't get hot in the summer. The beds and the room were clean and well-maintained to a high standard. Breakfast had a huge selection, rivaling even Michelin-starred restaurants. The terrace has plenty of seating areas to relax and enjoy the view, and you can also chat with other travelers. Florence is indeed a charming city, and the hotel's location allowed us to easily explore its beauty. We recommend walking to Piazzale Michelangelo, Piazza della Signoria, and the Uffizi Gallery, all within easy reach of the hotel. There are also many restaurants nearby. We tried the pasta at Ristorante Taj Palace and the steak at Steakhouse Da Aldone, both of which were delicious! Of course, the hotel has some minor drawbacks. Sometimes there are noisy groups staying, which can disturb your rest, especially on weekend nights. However, these minor flaws didn't affect our overall experience. In short, Archi Rossi Hostel is a great value for money, especially with its convenient location and friendly service, making our stay in Florence even more perfect. ❤️
