Since I didn't want to roll my luggage all around the city center, I had searched alongside the Firenze S.M.N station, and it really worked. You can easily find the Alba Palace Hotel around the corner, once getting off the train or the bus. Even with a busy scheduled trains and reservations for excursions, I could take a good rest here and could look around the big spots right before the departure time.
Hotel staffs were very friendly, breakfast was good. Snacks and water/ coffee was freely distributed from the lobby (self-service). The single room was not so decorative, but it was snug, clean and calm; the air-conditioner worked well. And small shops, the famous SMN perfume house, bus/tram stops, even the lavanderia were beside the hotel and all historic buildings were within minutes' walk. Good restaurants nearby. For time & cost-effectiveness, I'd definitely recommend this hotel. Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino (Operahouse) was conveniently reached from the T1 at Alamani-Stazione.
시간은 많지 않으나 계획이 많은 여행자에게 특히 추천하고 싶습니다. 역 가깝고, 찾기 쉽고, 친절하고, 방 정갈하고 가성비 좋은 3성급 호텔. 조식은 부티크 호텔임을 고려할 때 무난하게 잘 나오는 편입니다. 많은 분들이 언급하시는 산타마리아노벨라 약국 옆집입니다. (3성= 럭셔리 호텔 기대하시면 안되겠지만) 철저히 실용적인 면, 기본에 충실한 곳으로 제가 만난 스태프 모두 친절했습니다. (아래 잔돈 언급은 좀 예상 밖입니다만.. ^^ 근처에 소소한 가게들 무척 많습니다) 우피치, 일 폰테 베끼오, 두오모 도보 접근 가능하고 도보 거리가 아닌 곳 이동에도 편리합니다. 체크아웃 시 짐을 몇 시간 보관해 줍니다. 바로 옆집에 세탁소가 있는데, 전날 저녁이나 이른 아침에 맡기면 오후에 찾을 수 있다고 합니다 (평일 기준)
