Location context
Plan Florence around walkability and timed tickets
A central base reduces transport time, but reservations still matter for the Uffizi, Accademia and the Duomo complex.
Where Residenze Strozzi Firenze is, and why the location matters
Residenze Strozzi Firenze is a small guesthouse at Via degli Strozzi 2, in the historic center of Florence and inside the city’s ZTL (limited traffic zone). Booking platforms place it about 100 m (110 yards) from Palazzo Strozzi and Piazza della Repubblica, with the cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and Piazza della Signoria each about a 3-minute walk away.
That address matters because nearly everything on a first Florence itinerary is reachable on foot. The Ponte Vecchio is listed at about a 5-minute walk, roughly 480 m (525 yards), and Santa Maria Novella station is about 6 to 10 minutes away, depending on the source. Rooms run up to 40 sq m (430 sq ft) and come with a minibar and a safe, but breakfast is not included.
Getting there
- By train: Firenze Santa Maria Novella is about a 6-minute walk according to the property, and about 10 minutes according to Expedia.
- From Florence Airport (FLR): about 7.8 km (4.8 miles), roughly a 24-minute drive. The Unità tram stop is about a 7-minute walk from the door.
- By car: the street sits inside the ZTL. The property offers a private garage valet on request for an extra fee, or you can leave the car at Villa Costanza on the A1 and take the tram in.
- Times and distances are as listed on booking platforms on October 20, 2026.

Who it suits, and who should look elsewhere
A good fit if you want to walk everywhere, plan museum-heavy days and are comfortable with a lean setup: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and daily housekeeping, but no restaurant.
Look elsewhere if you want breakfast included, need to leave bags after check-out (there is no luggage storage), or are traveling with children under 13, which the property’s own FAQ does not accept. Listings also disagree on whether there is an elevator, so anyone who needs step-free access should confirm before booking.
What to do from Florence
- Cross the Ponte Vecchio, about 5 minutes away, into the Oltrarno for an evening passeggiata (the traditional unhurried stroll).
- Taste the city on a Florence food tour.
- Use the station’s rail links for day trips from Florence; if you would rather sleep inside Lucca’s walls, see Palazzo Alexander.
