Stay at Hotel Delle Camelie in Florence

The hotel sits in the historic centre, a 2-minute walk from the congress halls at Fortezza da Basso and Palazzo dei Congressi, where fashion exhibits and conferences are held. The Santa Maria Novella train station is reachable on foot in about 7 minutes, and the Duomo, Uffizi Gallery, and Accademia (with Michelangelo's David) are within a 10-minute walk. The street has a bakery and a small market, and the surrounding area is quiet, safe, and clean, with restaurants and cafes within a 5-minute walk.

The hotel has 12 rooms built at the beginning of the 20th century, each with a wide window that ensures lots of light, and the rooms have been recently renovated to a high standard. Room types include single, double or twin, triple, and quadruple rooms, with some featuring a balcony, memory foam mattresses, USB-C charging ports on the wall, and a TV that allows streaming from Netflix or Hulu. All rooms are soundproof, have air conditioning, and come with tea and coffee making facilities, a safety deposit box, and key card access.

An elevator serves all floors, and the hotel provides luggage storage, a shared lounge/TV area, and a concierge service. Safety features include 24-hour security, CCTV in common areas and outside the property, fire extinguishers, smoke alarms, and key card or key access. Facilities for disabled guests include an emergency cord in the bathroom, lower bathroom sink, raised toilet, toilet with grab rails, and wheelchair-accessible rooms.

Breakfast is included and offers a continental selection with croissants, pastries, eggs, yogurt, cheeses, salami, prosciutto, fruits, and toast. A coffee machine provides multiple choices including cappuccino and espresso. The bakery across the street is recommended by the staff for additional coffee, and the in-room tea and coffee makers allow guests to prepare hot drinks at any time.

The manager, Giovanni, is available via WhatsApp for quick responses and provides clear check-in instructions with a video for late arrivals. Guests can leave luggage at the hotel after check-out until the afternoon at no additional charge, and schedule changes (e.g., early departure) are accommodated without fees. The hotel uses an electronic code system for the main door, floor, and room, allowing entry at any time of day or night without needing a front-desk staff present.
