Paid
Covered
- Price notes
- Paid garage in the heart of the centre with unusually high ceilings (a car with bikes on the roof fits). Pricey, but it buys peace of mind versus ZTL fines and circling; booking ahead is recommended. Open later than most (until about midnight). One reviewer alleged a wing-mirror was damaged and denied, so photograph the car first.

Garage del Bargello, on Via Ghibellina in the heart of the old city, is a handy central garage with one unusual selling point: height. “Beautiful high ceilings, and our car with bicycles on top fit without any problem,” writes one guest, and another fitted a vehicle with a roof rack easily. Reviewers value it as a stress-saver — “perfect for an excursion in the heart of Florence… it will give you peace of mind, instead of worrying about ZTL fines and going in circles” — and note it stays open later than many rivals (until around midnight), which “saved my butt” for one driver whose pre-booked garage had already closed. Booking ahead is recommended, and it is “quite pricey.” The caveat to know: one reviewer alleged a wing-mirror was broken and the staff denied it, so photograph your car on arrival. For a central, tall-vehicle-friendly garage with late hours, it earns its place.
