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.

worawet from England stayed here on 31st August 2010 Location was the perfect. Staff were absolutely helpful and friendly, especially one of the girl staff (forgot her name). I lost my mobile phone and she was so helpful in contacting someone, lots of advice and suggestion. The cleanliness was spotless. The breakfast was lovely and so impressed with some afternoon snack provided or evening meals...Amazing. |

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 |

Florencia from Argentina stayed here on 11th August 2010 El mejor hostel de todo mi viaje a Europa. Lo mejor y lo que lo diferencia de otros hostels muy buenos: Romina, quien organiza "snacks" y cenas afuera a muy buen precio, para ayudarnos a relacionarnos. No encontre en ninguna otra parte que hicieran esto y ayuda mucho para los que viajamos solos. Gracias Romina!!!! |
