Plus Florence

Plus Florence is listed as a hostel, but it exceeded BY FAR my concept of what a hostel is. It had 2 indoor common areas plus 1 outdoor; A bar; Indoor and outdoor pools; Coin-operated laundry facilities; A gym; A 2-tier terrace, and onsite breakfast options. Some floors also had vending machines with beverages and snacks. The facilities were safe. Parking is also offered at an extra fee, but limited in space, so book ahead. None of these I know about ahead of booking. =P We managed to book a private room for 2 (2 single beds, but we were able to just join them together) with a private bathroom. The room is small but very adequate for a short stay such as ours (2 nights). The shower was very nice, with adequate hot water and good pressure.

Great location, clean rooms and friendly staff. Good stay, we didn’t have any issues at all. The aircon worked perfectly and there was no noise despite the amount of people that stay at the hostel at all times.

I was a bit scared when I saw the outside of the hostel, because it looked old and most of all HUGE. But it turned out better than I expected: my dorm (5 beds) was nice and clean, with plugs for each beds and a bathroom for the room. My bed was quite comfortable (except for the sheets which were super thin and hard but eh). The hostel has a pool (which I didn't use) and two terraces, downstairs there is a nice bar with a cool happy hour and events every nights. The location is very close to Santa Maria Novella Station, and great to explore Florence by foot.

I had a very positive experience at this hostel. The staff was incredibly friendly and always ready to help with recommendations or any needs. The location is perfect—just steps from a tram station, making it easy to reach from the train station and very close to Florence’s main attractions. Getting around the city was effortless. The facilities are modern and very clean, with well-maintained common areas. Overall, an excellent choice for its location, cleanliness, and great service. I’d definitely recommend it!

Affordable location relatively close to Florence main train station (10 min walk, couple minutes by tram). Rooms are spacious and beds are comfortable. The hostel has a (small) indoor pool and outdoor pool, and sauna & steam room. There is a grocery store just around the corner. They have luggage storage for ~3 euro for a whole day, which is a good deal if you're considering other options in Florence. Staff was friendly and understanding. The cathedral (Duomo) and city center of Florence/Firenze are at 15 min walk from the hostel.
