Directions

Scheduling the arrival time is a must. MAKE SURE WE KNOW AT WHAT TIME YOU'RE COMING AT LEAST 1 DAY IN ADVANCE OR YOU WON'T FIND NO ONE HERE. If you change your schedule or you just do not remember the time you wrote on your reservation, you must contact us urgently by email otherwise you will not be able to check in because there will be no one here for you and you will have to wait outside, maybe for hours.

From station:
Left exit from Santa Maria Novella train station, take left 'til Piazza Adua then right 'til Via Faenza, then go right, a few meters on the left is number 56...less than 3 minutes of walking!!! If you are walking more than that, please stop and ask someone.
From airport:
A taxi will cost you around 12 euros but it depends on how many luggage you have and on the traffic (normally 15 min)
shuttle bus is much cheaper and doesn't take much longer, get off at the station and follow the above info
By car:
Driving here is a mess and parking is very expensive. Anyway from any highway exit follow the indications to "centro-stazione" (centre-station) and once you get to the station, park the car in the underground parking and come over to the hotel, once you're here we will give you directions on how and where to park your car in a cheaper parking lot.
Good luck!! If you have a cell phone, call us, we will be your navigator.
