8 best pet-friendly hotels in Florence

Pet-friendly hotels in Florence make it easier to explore the city with a four-legged companion—without compromising on comfort, cleanliness, or location. The best stays are typically those offering clear pet policies, welcoming spaces (such as accessible lifts and well-kept rooms), and practical touches like designated areas for breaks and straightforward check-in for guests travelling with pets. This is ideal for couples and families who want a more independent trip, plus pet owners planning day walks between major sights.

When choosing where to stay, location matters. If you want to be steps from Florence’s iconic sights, base yourself near Piazza del Duomo, the heart of the historic centre and home to the Duomo complex. For a calmer, more local atmosphere, consider the Sant’Ambrogio area around Mercato Sant’Ambrogio—an established neighbourhood market setting where locals shop and linger. If you prefer easy transport links for short outings, look around Santa Maria Novella station, Florence’s main rail hub.

Within our bookable inventory, options such as Tre Gigli a Firenze and NH Collection Firenze Porta Rossa suit travellers who value convenience, while Antica Dimora Firenze and Stella D’italia are well matched to guests seeking a characterful stay for city-paced exploring. San Firenze Suites and Spa and Residence Hilda offer an excellent fit for those wanting a more relaxed, restorative base after long walks.
