Florence Hotels With a View

If You Are in a Hurry
Here’s a quick list of the best hotels in Florence
In Florence, where terracotta roofs and Renaissance domes stitch a skyline unlike any other, choosing a hotel with a view turns every morning and evening into a framed moment of the city’s timeless beauty. Opt for rooms or rooftop terraces overlooking the Duomo, the Arno and Ponte Vecchio, or Piazzale Michelangelo—book early for sunset spots and consider boutique stays in Oltrarno for quieter, authentic panoramas versus central luxury hotels for dramatic close-up vistas. For best value, prioritize higher floors or private balconies, time visits for golden hour photography, and weigh proximity to landmarks against street noise to find the ideal balance of convenience and atmosphere.
