About

Residenza Dei Pucci

Residenza Dei Pucci is a small, 6-room property on Via Dei Pucci, placing guests within a 5-minute walk of the Arno and a short stroll from Florence's key sights. The atmosphere is more guesthouse than hotel, with individually styled rooms, high ceilings, and a distinctly personal level of service.

The property offers practical touches for city exploring: private parking nearby, a sweet Italian breakfast, and staff who are repeatedly praised for their warm, tailored recommendations. It's a choice for travellers who want a quiet, well-located base without the scale of a large hotel.

“Stayed six days and loved this small hotel – the location was brilliant, close to the tourist spots, the Duomo, the Accademia, and even a nightclub. My classic room was perfect.”

8.8Verified guest

“The staff were so welcoming and the location couldn't be beaten. Peretola airport was only about 20 minutes by car, and breakfast had a great variety.”

8.8Verified guest

“We had a spacious suite with a view, two connecting bedrooms, and one had beautiful windows looking out over the Duomo's dome. The location was perfect – a couple of blocks from the Duomo and near everything. The room was clean, elegant, and had great amenities like free WiFi and TV.”

8.8Verified guest

“A luxurious yet affordable hotel with beautifully decorated rooms. The staff were extremely helpful, even arranging private parking for us. Amazing beds, high ceilings, free WiFi, and only 20 minutes from the airport. Friendly service, nice interior, and a good restaurant.”

“As a young couple from Sydney, our stay here made Florence even more enchanting. Our hostess Rossella and her colleague were so friendly and helpful – they booked us tables at nearby restaurants during peak season when everywhere was full. The room was stylish with high ceilings and thick walls, the bathroom spotless, and the bed very comfortable. Location was quiet yet central: 2 minutes to the Duomo, 5 to Ponte Vecchio. The sweet Italian breakfast was excellent – little cakes, strudels, croissants, toast, jams, yoghurt, and good coffee. We parked at a nearby garage for €22 a day, convenient and worth it given the traffic. Highly recommend.”
