Property Description
In the heart of the town, 30 seconds from the Duomo, you'll find a real hostel and not one of those re adapted apartments that call themselves 'hostels'. Here all things are considered, is also the cheapest because our prices include everything and there are no surprises , as it could happen, to have to pay extra on breakfast, Internet, linen, towels and 'taxes' (even our pictures look exactly like our hostel ! ). The reviews from our guests say everything, so we leave it to our reviews to do all our talking for us.
The only rules we have are: to leave empty the hostel from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. so we can clean the hostel; we also ask to not make any noise after 11 p.m. so we can let our guests relax in peace.
On the start of the street that leads to the Museum dell'Accademia (Academy Gallery where Michelangelo's David is housed), Academy hostel is on the first floor of the 17th Century palace that was the true residence of 'barone' Ricasoli and from here it's possible to reach any interesting venue or tourist location in Florence with a short walk.
ROOMS
Cheap accommodation in Florence shouldn't compromise on comfort. The city is a busy and hectic place so it's important for us at Academy Hostels to do as much as possible to ensure our guests can get a comfortable night sleep. You will find the Academy Hostels amazingly quiet for being located in the center of Florence but at the same time, for the ones who want to enjoy Florence nightlife, you will find restaurants,bars, clubs and the best spots in town within a few minutes walking distance.
The Academy Hostels is a rather small Hostel and can welcome 30 guests. Our well-maintained dormitory rooms with just 2 to 6 beds (no bunk beds) makes a very familiar and friendly environment.
All rooms are air conditioned and have lockers for your valuables. WI-FI connection, free usage of computers in the lobby and all bed linen is provided free of charge. Here you will find a comfortable furniture lobby with a LCD wide screen TV for the ones that want a little relaxation and to meet people from all over the world.

nicolecliteur1057 stayed here on 15th August 2010 The 11am-2pm lockout was an odd request, and came as a surprise to us. The location was great, but the rooms have no locks and your only security measure is a locker or safe behind the front desk. Read Owner Comments |

Er stayed here on 07th August 2010 The glass door for the shower room should not be transparent for privacy. Other than that, it is an excellent place to stay. Read Owner Comments |

cherylwaram stayed here on 31st July 2010 This was a great hostel. Everything is totally clean, although they accomplish this with an unusual rule that everyone is required to be outside the hostel from 11 until 2. Breakfast and internet is free (and the breakfast is actually great), plus they even serve food at dinner time! (I don't know why no one seems to know about the free food at 6.) There is also a tv in the common room with a dvd player and we found video games in the kitchen. Also, the staff are really nice and give fantastic recommen |
