Location & Access

Horto Convento is located in Borgo San Frediano, 1.5 km from Florence Santa Maria Novella station and 10 km from Peretola Airport. It is a 7-minute walk from Pitti Palace and a 10-minute walk from the Duomo. The hotel is outside Florence's Limited Traffic Zone (ZTL) and offers private parking (€25/day for cars, €15/day for motorcycles). The area is known for artisan workshops, restaurants, and bars like La Carraia ice-cream shop.

Guest Services

Services include a concierge for museum tickets (Uffizi Galleries, Boboli Gardens) and event bookings, a personal shopper for Florentine craftsmanship tours, make-up and hairdressing appointments, and electric car charging. The hotel provides free WiFi, ironing facilities, and a 24-hour front desk. Parking is available on-site or at nearby partner garages.

“What struck me most is the location, set back in the San Frediano neighborhood, removed from the central bustle yet still within easy reach of the city's attractions. The careful blend of the building's history, apparent in the high-ceilinged rooms, with modern comforts and a garden setting, suggests a relaxing retreat. It seems a particularly good choice for those wanting a quieter, more authentic Florentine experience.”
