Luna Rossa

When you stay at Luna Rossa in Florence, you get guesthouse treatment at hostel prices - and what could be better than that? The hostel is located only one block from Florence’s main train station, and it is just a short walk to the historic center of the city - which means that most of the main sights are within walking distance. This saves you money, since you do not have to pay for public transportation, and it means you are close to everything you will want to see and do.

There are no dorm style rooms at Luna Rossa, which is why it might not feel like a hostel. Every room can accommodate two or three people, although not every room has its own private en suite bathroom. Some rooms make use of shared bathroom facilities down the hall, so if you are traveling on more of a budget, the rooms with shared bathrooms are the cheaper ones.

Some of the amenities you will find at Luna Rossa are:

• Free linens and towels
• Free internet and WiFi access
• Free phone calls to USA, Canada, Western Europe
• Free booking service
• Luggage storage and security lockers
• Guest kitchen and laundry facilities
• Common area with gym machine and table tennis
• No lockout or curfew
• 24 hour check in and 24 hour reception

More reasons why Luna Rossa is not like a typical hostel include the free phone calls both within Italy and to the US, Canada and the rest of Western Europe. There are tons of freebies at the hostel, really, and all of them are useful to travelers. From free help booking tours and trips to the free CD burning, you will not find this many interesting perks anywhere else. Oh, and if you happen to be good at ping pong, you will want to stay at Luna Rossa - if you beat the manager, you get a big discount on the price of your stay!

Luna Rossa is certainly unique in all kinds of good ways - just do not expect every other hostel to be this fantastic, or you will be very disappointed!
