Hostel is centrally located 5 mins away from train station. We stayed in a double room. It was clean spacious and had a comfortable bed. Staff were nice and helpful with information. We had a chat with the owner, very friendly. Hostel is well maintained, with a nice garden to hang out in and have a smoke. Breakfast was minimal... More

This may not be the most luxurious of accommodation but the central location is definitely a bonus. The bathrooms were often slightly dirty late at night, but if you shower in the early evening, it's not a problem. There is a laptop you can use for free, which we found really useful, and some limited cooking facilities like toaster and... More

This place is clean and friendly. However the women that works in the morning does not know English so ask all your questions the night before. The wifi is horable cuts in and out. I do not recommend getting your laundry done the lost two articles of clothing then blamed one guest for stealing it. I would stay again.

I tend not to be picky and generally leave good reviews for budget accommodations while traveling solo as long as I get a good nights rest. However, this place left such a horrible aftertaste that I am giving my first negative review of a hostel. Pros: - Close to station - Beds are big Cons: - You cannot lock your... More

This hostel is just a short walk from the train station, but it is a bit difficult to find. Be sure to map it out first. The staff was helpful & friendly, I thought at first. They booked us a tour to some other small towns which included a lunch on a self-sustaining farm with a tour. We enjoyed the... More

Stayed at Emerald Fields a few nights and really appreciated its central location (10 min from the Duomo by foot). The hostel is clean and has fairly good facilities. We booked a double room. It was well-kept but it had very dim lighting and, in addition, it was a bit noisy outside, though it quieted down by around midnight. There... More

Nice place if you can find it - florence street numbers are confusing. It was a fairly basic hostel for a pretty good price. Staff were helpful and we had a nice time there meeting different people. This will undoubtedly bias my review but whilst there I had my phone stolen and another girl in our room had her day... More

This is the best place we stayed in during our travels. When we arrived, the staff was very friendly, and even upgraded us to a private room, without additional cost. Breakfast is included, but small. There is a woman who made breakfast (including cappuccino) for you, and is very pleasant. There are two bathrooms per floor (which turned out to... More

We enjoyed our 3 night stay at Emerald Fields. Had a guest house feel to it. Not modern but clean, good location (very easy to walk to the train station or the centre of Florence) and breakfast was lovely - served to you but only a selection of toast and hot drinks. Helpful staff happy to give recommendations about where... More
