- Parking notes
- No car park of its own; it is right by the Duomo, inside the ZTL. Guests describe the fix: you stop in front of the hotel and a partner garage collects the car (an extra fee), so there’s no parking to hunt for — though one notes it “took a long time to bring our car from the garage.” Register your plate with the hotel for ZTL access.
B&B Hotel Firenze Laurus al Duomo is exactly where the name says — on Via de’ Cerretani, “just a few steps from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore,” deep inside the ZTL. For drivers, the appeal is how cleanly it removes the parking problem: as a guest explains, “you can park your car in front of the hotel and the garage will pick it up, so no need to worry about parking” (an extra fee, but “very cool”). You register your plate with the hotel for ZTL access, hand the car to the partner garage, and you’re free in the centre with the Duomo, the Medici Chapels and the shops on the doorstep. The one practical note from guests is patience: “it took a long time to bring our car from the garage,” so request it a good while before you need to leave. For a top-rated stay right by the cathedral with the car taken care of, it’s a strong pick.
Good to know
