The super-welcoming, 20-room Hotel Accademia sits in the heart of busy, multiethnic San Lorenzo, just a ten-minute walk from the Duomo. Here kebab stands and Asian markets outside provide a fun contrast to the classic Florentine ambiance inside.

Light streams in along the corridors, and numerous cozy common spaces, including an outdoor terrace, make you feel at home in this 14th-century palazzo. Arches and marbled, painted walls maintain an arty, Florentine feel.

Rooms are decorated in dark wood and red brocade, for an attractive, if not exactly classic feel. Ceilings are elegantly high. Large reproductions of Michelangelo and Raphael add a fun vibe to the place. Blue-and white tiled bathrooms are big and clean. All rooms are air-conditioned too.

This place couldn't be cuter, and bonus, since we last visited rates have dropped, making it a reasonable find for palazzo lovers.
