Hotel Martelli Florence is located on Via Panzani, the main road leading from Santa Maria Novella to the awesome Duomo di Firenze. Check our interactive map of Florence below for a bird’s-eye view. Within a few minutes’ walk to the left as you exit our historical Florence 3 Star accommodation you’ll come upon Piazza del Duomo – the epicentre of the city.

The Duomo was built towards the end of the 15th century by master architect Filippo Brunelleschi and is distinguished by its colossal orange coloured dome, which dominates the Florence skyline and symbolises the city.

Immediately south of Piazza del Duomo is the cluster of narrow lanes that constitute the beating heart of downtown Firenze, lined with boutiques, typical Tuscan restaurants and excessively priced hotels; all leading to Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchio – the seat of political power in the old Florentine Republic. Moments later we reach the world famous Uffizi Gallery and the River Arno, spanned by the legendary Ponte Vecchio.

How to get here : The Hotel Martelli is located on Via Panzani, number 8. We are exceedingly easy to reach, as this street is the main road leading from Santa Maria Novella Railway Station – the public transport epicentre and central Train Station – into Piazza del Duomo and the heart of the city.

If arriving by air to Florence International Airport (Amerigo Vespucci), which is only about 5 km (3.5 miles) outside of the city centre, a taxi directly to the hotel should cost well under €20. Alternatively, take one of the regular public transport shuttles into the aforementioned Santa Maria Novella Station and walk from there. The walk shouldn’t take more than about 5 minutes even with luggage. Use the map above to help you. The Station is located on Piazza Santa Maria Novella, just a few hundred metres west of the Hotel Martelli.
