A propriedade — Crocini
The Crocini is a straightforward, no-fuss 3-star hotel on a quiet residential street near the Fortezza da Basso. The lobby is small, clean and unpretentious, with a modest breakfast room off to the side and a lift that actually works. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a reliable base within walking distance of Santa Maria Novella station and the historic centre, and aren't bothered by frills.
Crónicas de Florence
Florence was founded as a Roman settlement in 59 BC, but its real boom came in the 13th and 14th centuries as a banking and wool-trading powerhouse. The Medici family dominated from the 15th century, bankrolling the Renaissance and commissioning works from Brunelleschi, Michelangelo and Leonardo. The Duomo, with its famous terracotta-tiled dome engineered without scaffolding, still defines the skyline. Today the city lives off tourism and fashion, with its medieval street plan packed with galleries, leather shops and gelaterias.
Melhor época para visitar
Guia completo de Florence →Melhores meses
May and September — warm days, fewer tourists than midsummer, and affordable prices. October is also good if you don't mind cooler evenings.
Peak / Festival Surge
July (especially July 2-3) — the start of peak season and the Palio horse race in Siena draws day-trippers. Hotel prices double or triple, and the city is packed. Also busy during Pitti Uomo in June.
Orçamento da temporada
March-April and October-November offer milder weather, significant discounts on hotels, and far fewer queues at the Uffizi and Accademia.
Tempo e embalagem
Florence in early July is hot and humid, with highs around 33°C, but thunderstorms can roll in suddenly late afternoon. Pack light linen or cotton clothing, a small umbrella, and comfortable walking shoes — the city is all cobbles and no shade.
Livro City Briefing — Florence
- The tram line T2 extension from Santa Maria Novella to the airport (Peretola) is now fully operational, offering a cheap and reliable way to reach the hotel from the airport in about 20 minutes.
- The city has introduced a new pedestrian zone in the centre (ZTL) with stricter enforcement; avoid driving into the historic core between 7am and 8pm unless you have a hotel permit.
- The Uffizi and Accademia galleries now require timed-entry booking year-round, even in summer — book at least two weeks ahead for July.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Crocini, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the third or fourth floor facing the internal courtyard. These floors sit above street-level noise but are low enough for quick stair access if the lift is small (common in 3-star Florence hotels).
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor (especially those facing Corso Italia) due to street noise and potential lack of privacy from passersby. Also avoid rooms directly adjacent to the lift shaft.
Best views
Front-facing rooms on floors 3-5 have a view over Corso Italia's lively street life and typical Florentine rooftops, but with traffic noise. Back-facing rooms look onto a quieter courtyard or neighbouring buildings.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 and 4 are the quietest — above the hubbub of the street and bar/restaurant activity, but well within the building's typical fire-safety height.
🔊 Noise notes
Corso Italia carries constant traffic and scooter noise until late evening. The hotel bar (if present) on ground floor may produce clatter and voices. Early-morning delivery trucks service nearby shops.
Insider tips
1. Park at the garage in Piazza della Libertà (10 mins walk) — on-street parking near 28 Corso Italia is restricted and expensive. 2. Check-in early to secure a courtyard-facing room, as they’re fewer and go first.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Dinheiro e moeda
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use bank ATMs (bancomat) for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at Santa Maria Novella station or tourist spots as they often add high fees and poor rates.
Card contactless is accepted almost everywhere, including most restaurants, shops, and taxis; mobile pay works if the terminal is NFC-enabled — keep 20–50 EUR cash for small markets or cafés.
Tipping is not expected: round up the bill or leave 1–2 EUR for good service in restaurants; taxis and hotel staff don't expect tips, though a euro or two for luggage help is fine.

A main course at an osteria or trattoria without frills: 12–18 EUR for pasta or meat dish.
The Mercato Centrale and San Lorenzo street stalls for lampredotto, trippa, and schiacciata; around 5–8 EUR fills you up.
Coop, Conad, and Esselunga are the main budget supermarket chains; Lidl and Eurospin offer lower prices.
The San Lorenzo market (daily) for affordable clothing and leather goods, or standard high-street chains on Via de' Calzaiuoli.
Single bus/tram ticket (1.50 EUR valid 90 min) or a 24-hour pass (7 EUR); from the airport, take tram T2 (1.50 EUR) to Santa Maria Novella.

Principais atrações em Florence
💡 Check the upstairs museum (€6) for the originals. The church itself is free and usually empty, so you can sit in peace - a rarity in central Florence.
💡 Skip the expensive upstairs pasta. Head to the ground floor's Nerbone for a €5 tripe sandwich or €4 bowl of lampredotto - a true Florentine lunch.
💡 Go just before sunset to see the city glow. Stay until the lights come on - it's far less crowded than during the day and the Duomo looks spectacular.
💡 Arrive at 5.15pm weekdays in summer to hear the monks sing Gregorian chant during vespers. It's a hauntingly beautiful experience, and free.
💡 Book ahead online (€6) - they limit visitors to 30 per 15-minute slot. If sold out, show up at opening and ask about returned tickets.
