About

Florence Shabby Chic Home

Florence Shabby Chic Home is a guest house in the Novoli – San Donato district, roughly 6 km from Palazzo Vecchio. Its position near Peretola airport and the tram line makes it a practical base for travellers arriving or departing by air, as well as for reaching the city’s historic sights.

The property keeps things straightforward: a small, personal stay with a terrace, luggage storage and key access. Guests consistently point to the spotless rooms and the warmth of the hosts, Giulia and her husband, who go out of their way to make arrivals smooth – even arranging a taxi or preparing a snack for a late check-in.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Outstanding hospitality — Giulia and her husband are repeatedly praised for their attentiveness – arranging taxis, preparing late-night snacks and making guests feel genuinely looked after.
  • Exceptionally clean and comfortable rooms — Guests describe rooms as spotless, spacious and modern, with memory foam mattresses and well-stocked minibars.
  • Practical airport location — Sitting near Peretola airport, the guest house is a convenient stop for early flights or late arrivals, with a tram line into the city centre close by.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Set a little away from the historic centre — Palazzo Vecchio is roughly 6 km away, so sightseeing will mean a tram or taxi ride rather than a short stroll.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only available between 14:00 and 21:00, so guests arriving outside these hours will need to plan ahead.
  • No pets allowed — Travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere, as the property does not accept pets.
