“Relais Sampaoli's location works: a quick walk gets you to the Duomo, yet it's tucked away from the tourist crush. Rooms are well-maintained, and that modern bathroom stands out. It's a solid base for exploring Florence, especially if you value being close to the action without being in the thick of it.”
