A short walk from the 3 star Hotel Goldoni along the river will lead you to the Ponte Vecchio bridge, built in 1345 and full of rather expensive jewellery shops. On the way you will pass Via Tornabuoni, the designer street in Florence, full of all the designer names that will make any shopper feel like they have arrived in heaven!

Then walk in any direction and you will be right in front of one of the many cultural and historic masterpieces that have made Florence a city visited by millions of tourists every year, including the Uffizi Gallery, Piazza della Signoria, the Duomo and Giotto’s Bell Tower and Santa Croce church to name just a few.
