FEATURED IN THIS VIDEO:
How to Get into the City:
- From Pisa Airport (Gallilei Gallileo Intl Airport): Take the Pisamover to Pisa Centrale Station, and buy a ticket to Florence (Santa Maria Novella Station)
- From Florence Airport (Peretola)
Cheapest option is the new Tram from T2 to Santa Maria Novella Station in Florence.
Or just hop in a cab)
How to Skip The Lines:
(VERY IMPORTANT TO AVOID SPENDING HOURS IN LINES!)
- The most user friendly website for reserving skip the line reserved ticket times (for the Uffizi Gallery and the Academia Gallery (Michelangelo's David) is:
(But you’ll pay more of a fee…but it is user friendly)
- The official ticketing website for the Uffizi Gallery and The David is B-ticket:
(Less user-friendly, but a cheaper ticket price…and it’s not that hard to figure it out)
- The official site for reserving a climb for the Duomo is here (this will also include entrance into all of the attractions of the Duomo):
- You can also call to book a time at the Uffizi and David by calling this number from a US phone:
011-39-055-294-883
- Or this number from an Italian phone:
055-294-883
You can also sometimes book through your hotel (if you’re staying at a hotel)
Or go with a small group tour like ArtVivia (more expensive, but highly recommended):
Food:
- All’Antico Vinaio
- Gustapizza
- Le Volpi e L’Uva

- Basilica di Santa Croce (burial site of famous Italians)
- Medici Chapel (also the family tomb for the Medici)
Parks/Nature:
- Boboli Gardens (Beautiful impressive huge park)

A walk through TSH Florence Lavagnini, Firenze's first stunning Student Hotel
Michelangelo's David and the Duomo have new neighbours in Florence with the opening of TSH Florence Lavagnini, a stunning hotel, co-living and co-working destination that boasts the Tuscan capital’s most spectacular rooftop views.
The Student Hotel (TSH) vision for a Complete Connected Community of co-living and co-working students, leisure and long-stay professional guests, takes a monumental leap forward with TSH Lavagnini, its flagship hybrid-hospitality concept.
Following a €50 million regeneration, TSH Lavagnini breathes new life into a previously underserved neighbourhood. The 390-room, 20,000-sq-meter space was originally built in 1864 for diplomats, today it is transformed into a work meets life creative hub.
The design playfully awakens the historic palazzo, nicknamed The Sleepy Palace by locals. The classic architecture now boasts modern twists, such as a supersized graffiti installation in the central courtyard, a rooftop “The Beach is Boring” pool, a skybar and two terraces with breathtaking vistas of Firenze city, the Duomo, and the Tuscan hills.
Founder and CEO, Charlie MacGregor says: “Every new TSH property raises the bar to deliver the ultimate space for guests to discover their purpose and change the world. Florence Lavagnini has exceeded every expectation, it is quite simply exquisite, and is the best example yet of of our Complete Connected Community.”
OOO: Out Of the Ordinary dining
In partnership with founders of the famous Florence cafe restaurant, La Menagere, TSH has created a spectacular dining concept entitled OOO – Out Of the Ordinary.
OOO consists of a series of distinct but interconnected spaces that provide locals and TSH guests an unprecedented number of food and drink experiences, available from early in the morning until deep into the night.
From cocktails to pizza and grab-n-go organic food to music; from bicycles and bike gear to a concept fashion store; from espresso to drip coffee or a DJ bar to hair salon; from fine dining to casual bistrot – everything is OOO.
TSH Collab for the co-working generation
TSH Collab is a livable, shared workspace inspired by the demand for hybrid co-working communities who define how global nomads work, live and play.
At TSH Florence Lavagnini, Collab lives in a space that connects the building’s two towers, with its main entrance accessed from the internal courtyard. Its façade is entirely glass, and its soothing colours create a calming light-filled atmosphere that is visibly connected to the rest of the hotel.
Collab-members can rent flex-desks, dedicated desks or stand-alone offices allowing entrepreneurs, freelancers and companies to scale-up or work in project-based teams.
Playful design that celebrates art
Design was created by in-house team TSH Design in collaboration with Bologna-based Rizoma Architecture and Florence-based studio, Archea.
When guests enter the building, the iconic TSH “wink” greets them, along with a grand piano and a ping pong table. Four swings dangle from the arched passage that leads to a street art-filled courtyard, featuring local and internationally recognised artists.
The communal areas are brought to life with a mix of locally sourced, traditional materials, colourful graphics and geometric patterns. A blend of natural materials such as wood, cork, stone and leather sit next to industrial metal mesh, glazed iron, ceramic tiles and resin floor finishes, creating an exciting contrast within the historic building.
The energetic and inspiring vibe encourages connectivity among students, guests and locals with multiple communal spaces, open and closed seating areas, gaming zones, a massive shared kitchen, quiet study rooms, meeting rooms and an auditorium.
Rooms for everyone
TSH Florence Lavagnini has a mix of 390 rooms suitable for travellers young and old staying from one night up to one year. The rooms are en-suite and range from 15-sq-meter single rooms to family rooms of 65-sq-meters.
Rooms are organized in clusters around the courtyard to allow different traveller and co-living communities to cluster depending on their purpose and length-of stay.
Location
TSH Florence Lavagnini is located in front of Fortezza da Basso, a vibrant park, cultural and trade centre, just five minutes cycle ride from the Duomo and city centre, and soon the new tram-line will connect the hotel directly with both the airport and railway station.
