San Lorenzo Market

Lively market famous for leather goods and local foods.


Duomo/Center

Most convenient for reaching main sites and shops, but crowded and noisy.


Santo Spirito & San Frediano (Oltrarno)

Calmer atmosphere, excellent restaurants and more green space.


Santa Croce & Sant'Ambrogio

Great restaurant options, pedestrian streets and local living in Sant'Ambrogio.


San Niccolò & Piazzale Michelangelo

Further away, but nice views in the hills and nightlife near the river.


Piazza San Marco & Santissima Annunziata

Best budget options, quieter and more of a walk to main sites.


Santa Maria Novella

Best location if you need to catch a train; otherwise, can be less charming.
