Indeed, the immaculate architecture, hazy valley ambience and such great monuments as Brunelleschi’s Dome, Palazzo Signoria and Ponte Vecchio have inspired many a great poet even long after the days of Leonardo da Vinci, Dante and Luca Toni.
SPECIAL RATES
To see what Florence can do for your imagination, try a break at the Hotel Mario. We believe our competitive rates and low season offers may just tempt you.
As you can see from the Google Map above, Mario’s Hotel is located on Via Faenza, number 89, an unusual niche of tranquillity in an otherwise bustling city. Our half of via Faenza (the half nearest Santa Maria Novella train station) is not an ZTL zone, meaning most traffic is allowed down it. No parking is allowed therefore you must park in a nearby garage however, Mario’s guests get parking facilities here at discount rates!
If arriving by air you can take the city shuttle to Santa Maria Novella Station. To reach the hotel from here go parallel to the station on its right hand side and turn right at Piazza Adua and continue along Via Cennini. When you come to Via Faenza turn right and you’ll soon come to Mario’s Hotel – number 89.
If you’re coming by car simply follow signs for the station then the directions above. The Fortezza da Basso conference and trade fair centre are within a few minutes walk of the hotel.
Mario’s charming and personable 3 star Guest House with its wrought iron beds, original oak beams and terracotta floors is a testament to the grandeur that defined the great Republic of Florence both in the 17th century when our building was constructed and today.
CLASSICAL
Generally considered the cradle of the renaissance, this beautiful city envelopes visitors in a timeless and enduring aura of inspiration and classical beauty.
