Let Carmel (an American expatriate from Boston) and her Italian husband Pino welcome you and make you feel at home in Florence. 

It's easy to check in and get settled at Il Bargellino, and the atmosphere in this family owned and operated hotel is friendly and intimate.

Il Bargellino is located in the city center, within short walking distance to all major sights. We're just a few kilometers from the local airport and five minutes walk from Santa Maria Novella, the main train station. At the same time, our section of Via Guelfa is slightly off the beaten track. 
The rooms and hallway are furnished with lovely antique pieces that seem to take you back to a more relaxing era.

The terrace is an oasis from the crowds. Here, our guests can unwind from a rigorous day of sightseeing or shopping.

Pino and Carmel are helpful and friendly, and available to answer questions or make museum and restaurant reservations, or recommend some back-streets to explore if you want to lose the tourist crowd and see the real Florence...
