We stayed in Florence Youth Hostel in February for 2 nights. It was a last-minute change of plan as our other accommodation had been cancelled on us so we booked online and sent a direct email to the hostel in the morning to notify them of our arrival that evening. When we arrived to check in nobody answered the door.... More

I stayed at 5 different places in Italy and this was one of my favorites. Even though I was only here for a night, it felt like a week. The staff here were so kind and generous with their time. Francesco especially really helped us with things that were well above and beyond the call of duty. The vibe of... More

I kind of felt like I was on a high school overnight field trip where the teacher forces you turn out lights at a certain time, you can't be trusted,etc - you know what I'm talking about? This place locks you out from 10-14h, there's no great communal room for everyone to meet and greet like many of the better... More

The staff were great and made us very welcome. The room was very comfortable. Good breakfast. Situated very close to the main sites of Florence with many great restaurants to choose from. More

The hostel owners were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was only 2.50 euros and actually had scrambled eggs! (I was so sick of only bread, deli meats, and cheese for breakfast by this point in my trip) Hostel was in an excellent central location. The only downside was a lockout from 10:30 am till sometime in the early afternoon...it would... More

No signs of Florence Youth Hostel outside the building, costing us a wait until someone who happened to come out of the building asked us (with 2 big backpacks) whether we... More

one of the best hostels i tried, florence youth hostel is very central (1 minute from palazzo vecchio, 3 from the duomo) and totally worth it. An old building with stone floors, but warm and well furnished. The sink in the room was much appreciated and also the very welcoming staff. If u stay for a few nights in Florence... More

I stayed here with my boyfriend in early December in an economy double. The location is perfect; it's very close to the Uffizi, Duomo, and many restaurants and shops (lots of good gelato places too!). I would say that the majority of sights you will wish to see while in Florence are within a 15 min walk. The best part... More

I've stayed at many different places in Florence over time, and this hostel is definitely at the top of my list. The staff was out-of-their-way nice and helpful. One of the staff even helped me carry my luggage up the stairs, which was not an easy job. The rooms were perfectly clean and quiet. My room had a sink and... More
