Help with Florence-Across the River
 
Looking for quaint area across the river to stay 4 nights. We have been numerous times and stayed in busy areas of Florence.
Would like a more relaxing visit in nice accommodations.
I ve seen Oltrono recommended.
Any thoughts?
Many thanks!

Fiesole?

I stayed at the Palazzo Guicciardini about 4-5 years ago. It is a small, quiet hotel in the Oltrarno, great location. My room was enormous and beautiful. Note that the hotel entrance is not on the ground floor. I can't recall if there is an elevator.

Wonderful website with car assistance.
Not sure how you initially get in the ZTLs?

Prior to Florence we will have been in Countryside so looking to be a closer.
But thanks for bringing in to my attention.

Check out Hotel David, Oltrarno area -- lovely! We will be there in October for 4 lovely nights.

Out in the country, with a car, 20 minutes from Florence is Villa Monteoriolo, a fantastic agriturismo, if you want outside the city.

You had me at free parking and no ZTLs.
Pricy but alot of items included.
Definite contender.
Thanks so much!!
