“B&B Santa Maria Novella struck me as a particularly well-situated base for exploring Florence, not least because of its proximity to the train station and the Santa Maria Novella Basilica. I was impressed by the seamless blend of modern design within a historical building, enhanced by bespoke room features and Italian brand furnishings. This B&B has an appeal for those seeking personalized experiences, from cooking classes to potential access to the secret Medici passage.”
