The DoubleTree by Hilton Florence Metropole sits on Via del Cavallaccio west of the centre, and for drivers that location is the whole point: it is well outside the ZTL, so there’s no permit to arrange and no fine to fear. Guests highlight the practical set-up — “super underground parking” plus a “courtesy bus to the nearest tram stop to visit Florence” — so you park securely under your own hotel and let the tram carry you into town, exactly the parking-first strategy this guide recommends. The recently rebranded hotel earns praise for spacious, refreshed rooms and helpful staff. You trade a central address for an effortless arrival, secure overnight parking and the freedom to come and go by car without re-entering the restricted zone — ideal for families and road-trippers.
