The Hotel Pagnini is situated in a residential and relatively quiet area near the river Arno. Less than 1 km from the major sights as the Duomo and Ponte Vecchio, the hotel is easily reachable also from the business center (10-15 minutes walking), the railway station and the shopping area.
Right around the corner in the Borgo Ognissanti area, a string of every kind of shop from delicatessen and bakeries to clothing and shoes, antiques to handmade Florentine crafts, just to mention a few, can be found.
The garage, extra charge, is only 100 metres away. Let us know if you're coming by car so that we can help with the easiest itinerary to reach the Hotel.
