We had a wonderful stay at The Social Hub Florence Lavagnini. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from downtown, making it easy to explore the city. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, especially Chiara, who was always helpful...

The fine print

Need-to-know information for guests at this property

The credit card used for the booking should be shown upon check-in.

- Access to swimming pool is limited to 2 hours/day maximum and reservation for sunbed have to be made in advance to the reception.

- Once the swimming pool area have reached maximum capacity in order to allow safe social distance, we cannot guarantee the possibility to reserve a place a such day and time.

Usually, the pool is open in the summer months until mid-afternoon, but availability depends on weather conditions, which unfortunately we cannot predict! If the use of the pool is essential for your stay with us, we recommend that you contact our Reception before booking your room.

During peak periods, reservations are required to use the pool. Reservations are divided into fixed time slots and include a maximum 15-minute delay. If you arrive more than 15 minutes after the reservation time or do not show up, it will be considered a "no-show" and your seat may be allocated to people physically waiting at the Rooftop.
