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.

anandankur2020 from India stayed here on 25th March 2010 This place is just awesome, if I would have known earlier that Pisa is so near from Florence, I would have extended my stay in Florence at this hostel. Friendly staff, clean place,and proximity to market is what make this special. Will definitely be coming to this hostel only if I will ever visit Florence. | Male

Frances from Australia stayed here on 25th March 2010 An excellent hostel right in the heart of Florence. No bunk beds, no squeaky beds, clean bathrooms, a good common room and limitless internet = very happy solo traveller. You might want to bring ear plugs, though - being so close to the Duomo, you are likely to be woken up when the belltower starts ringing at 7am. | Female

Maliakakalina from USA stayed here on 21st March 2010 The girls who work at the hostel are amazing! The location is absolutely incredible, right by the duomo and an easy walk from the train station. The only problem is noise- everything echoes. If you like the be a late sleeper, don't count on it here. And by late sleeper I mean 8:30 am.
