If you want to be near to the major sights of city, the best area to stay in Florence is the historic centre. This means you’ll be within strolling distance of the Florence Cathedral (The Duomo), and you can easily reach the Piazza della Signoria, around which many of the major museums and galleries are situated.
If you've never visited Tuscany before, the choice of places to stay can be a little overwhelming. Options for staying in the countryside are enormous, but the Chianti region, between Siena and Florence is a good choice for first time visitors, as is Val d'Orcia.
