This will narrow your options to properties that allow pets. Once you find a hotel you're interested in, click on it and review the "Policies" section for specific details about their pet policy. This often includes information about pet types, size restrictions, fees, and whether pets are allowed in all rooms or only certain ones.When selecting your room type, read the room description to check that its pet-friendly, as not all rooms in a pet-friendly hotel may accommodate pets. For added peace of mind, contact the hotel directly to confirm the room you've selected allows pets.

You'll find plenty of shaded pathways and open fields, making it ideal for a relaxing afternoon. It's located just a short bus ride or a pleasant walk from the city centre, beyond the Ponte della Vittoria.

Another excellent option is the Boboli Gardens, located behind the Pitti Palace. While dogs aren't permitted inside the palace itself, many parts of the sprawling gardens welcome well-behaved pets on a lead. It's a fantastic place for couples to enjoy a leisurely walk, taking in the Renaissance sculptures, fountains, and grottoes, all with stunning views over Florence. Do check specific entry rules for pets when you arrive, as these can sometimes vary.

Many of Florence's outdoor markets, like the San Lorenzo Market (for its outdoor stalls, not the indoor food market), are also pet-friendly. You can browse for leather goods and souvenirs with your companion by your side, enjoying the bustling atmosphere.
What amenities should I look for in a pet-friendly hotel in Florence?
When selecting a hotel in Florence for you and your pet, look for amenities like food and water bowls, pet-friendly outdoor spaces and pet beds.
