Suggest you try Priceline and try for a four star hotel--which may in reality be a 3-and-a-half. Go to www.biddingfortravel.com and learn all about the hotels available and the bidding process. Hotels in Italy are quite expensive, but you may get lucky---depending almost entirely upon when you plan to travel.

$175 USD, correct? Here's one of the more recent threads mentioning a number of Venice hotels under about 150E/night. You'll find many others by typing venice and hotel and budget into the search box.

PS: I can second the recommendation for the Leon Bianco, and add that I also enjoyed the Locanda Gaffaro.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. We are looking to go in mid june which I may believe is high season, so we may end up paying a little more than $175 USD per night, which is not a huge problem.

Florence: Hotel Enza
Venice: Locanda Fiorito in St. Stefans square, Acadamia Bridge
Albergo Doni near Plaza San Marco
Of the two choices in Venice I prefer the Fiorito although both are fine and well located.

Before you think this over too much, with a trip coming up pretty quick, I'd find 4 hotels in each city that are centrally located and fit your budget and contact them for availability. No sense stewing over this too much if places are already booked up.

In Florence -- another vote for the Tourist House Ghiberti.
In Venice -- if it isn't too pricey -- the Hotel Paganelli. Our favorite hotel in Venice. It's even mentioned in one of Donna Leon's books.
Good luck!

In Florence, if Tourist House Ghiberti is booked, try Panella's Residence - B&B converted from old stable. It was very comfortable, Sra. Panella is charming - THGhiberti recommended it since they were booked when we were looking last year.
