B&B HOTEL First

On the edge of Florence in Calenzano — a sleek base in Tuscany minutes from the A1/A11 motorway exits. Close to I Gigli Shopping Center and the Designer Outlet Barberino, about 20 minutes by car to Florence historic center and just 4 km from Firenze-Peretola Airport.

Modern, four‑floor hotel with 127 rooms that mix refined, contemporary style and practical comforts. Rooms feature Select Comfort beds with Egyptian cotton sheets, flat‑screen TVs, fridges, private bathrooms (bathtub or shower, many with bidets) and air conditioning; public transport stops right outside.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool (open June–September) and sip at the poolside Pulcinella bar, or relax in the lounge and café. Ample on‑site parking, pet‑friendly rooms on request (additional charge), free Wi‑Fi, laundry/dry cleaning, elevator access and eco‑friendly systems like solar power and grey‑water recycling.

Big on meetings — convention and event spaces seating up to 420 guests, a business center and easy highway access make this a top pick for conferences. Complimentary Wi‑Fi keeps work flowing and there’s ample free parking for delegates.

Mediterranean and Tuscan flavors headline the on‑site offerings: Pulcinella poolside bar/lounge plus additional restaurants serving regional specialties. Start with an American buffet breakfast, or order room service during limited hours for a low‑fuss meal.
