Coming from Milan or Rome (Highway A1)

If you are travelling on the highway A1 from Milan or Rome

We recommend you take Florence’s highway exit Uscita Firenze Certosa:

  • Drive around the roundabout (almost full 360°) and follow the signs for CENTRO ( town centre).
  • Drive up the hill, on your left you’ll see the Florence’s abbey the “Certosa”, drive through a village called “Galluzzo”, keep on driving one more km through an alley with lots of gasoline stations.
  • Turn right at the traffic light. The road goes up the hill; at the second traffic light turn left (into “Via Poggio Imperiale”) and drive down to “Piazza di Porta Romana”.
  • Pass under the arch of the medieval city walls (there’s a camera), you just entered the Via Romana. Follow the street straight into Via Maggio, pass over the Santa Trinita Bridge, keep driving straight in ahead in Via Tornabuoni. Now a critical drive begins into Florence’s city centre: drive slowly, make sure you get the right turnings:
  • Pass a traffic light, go straight into Piazza Antinori, then make a right turn in the little street on your right side - just after a bus stop in a very narrow street - called “Via degli Agli”.
    (mind that if the bus is stopped in front of you,you should wait until it drives away and then drive on the right side of the San Gaetano Church in via degli Agli).
  • At the STOP sign go straight ahead and enter the pedestrian zone in Via dei Pecori – drive slowly, you can see the Duomo in front of you, turn right into the second street on your right Via Roma, keep driving straight ahead, turn the second left street in Via degli Speziali, then again second left.
  • You are now on Via dei Calzaiuoli. Get close to the left side of the street, just stop your car at the door entrance of the hotel: a wooden old door at number 11 (in blu letters), immediately after the Disney Store.
  • Ring the bell, push the door and unload your luggage inside the door. Lock your car and come to the reception with the elevator, we’ll then call the garage for you.

IMPORTANT: Florence historical centre is a Traffic Limited Zone (in Italian ZTL), controlled by several traffic cameras and traffic wardens. The entrances to the centre are under surveillance by cameras that register every number plate that passes below them.
Residents and Tourists can enter the centre, but upon arrival it is important that you give us your number plate so that we can communicate it to the authorities and you will not be fined for entering the ZTL.

Also be careful not to drive in the Bus/Taxi Only lanes, marked in yellow.

As parking is not permitted in the centre of Florence, Hotel Axial offers to all its clients a special rate with a nearby garage.
The garage staff will take care of collecting the car and bringing it back in front of the hotel.
Prices vary depending on the size of the car, from 24 Euro for small sizes to 30 Euro for larger cars. The fee covers parking until 19:00 of the next day.
Garage fee must be paid directly to the garage staff when collecting the car.
