About
Hotel Nuova Italia
Hotel Nuova Italia is a 2-star hotel on Via Faenza, one of Florence's lively streets between the main train station and the historic core. It’s a 6-minute walk from Via Faenza and steps from San Lorenzo Market and the Duomo. The hotel is family-run, with a small, unpretentious vibe—don't expect room service or a spa; it's about location and simplicity.
Rooms are practical and clean, with air conditioning, heating, and flat-screen TVs. Some face the courtyard. Breakfast is included in many rates and served on-site, with coffee noted by guests as particularly good. The staff, including the Viti family, are repeatedly praised for their friendliness and helpfulness.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Unbeatable central location — A short walk from the main railway station and Florence's top sights, including the Duomo and San Lorenzo Market.
- Excellent value for money — Low starting price of £37 per night in a prime spot, with breakfast often included—guests consistently call it a bargain.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Basic facilities — This is a simple 2-star hotel—no elevator, pool, or gym, and Wi-Fi only in public areas, not in rooms.
- Street noise possible — Via Faenza is a lively street, and with windows open you'll hear the markets and trattorias below.
- Limited room amenities — Some room types (like the Single Room) have no listed in-room amenities beyond basics; expect no frills.
