ALBERGHINO - Bed & Breakfast in Florence

Whoever chooses to spend Christmas in Florence will loose themselves in the joys of the city, whose squares, avenues, side streets and shop windows are bathed in the special atmosphere of lights, colours and Christmas cheer. Being less crowded with tourists, it is also easier to enjoy than in spring and summer.

Here tourists, visitors and citizens can find useful information on the Christmas period.

You might start your visit with the nostalgia of the German Christmas market in Piazza Santa Croce or Florence Noel, the market-show in Stazione Leopolda, or you could choose from the wide choice of markets in the Province of Florence. You can admire traditional, mechanised or live Nativity scenes, fascinating for adults and children, in churches, oratories, institutes or in the open air.

You can find out the times of the Christmas Eve and Christmas Day religious services in the main old city churches, together with short notes on how to get around, public transport and timetables for the 25th, and 31st December, as well as January 1st. A brief description of shop opening times is provided and for those who prefer visiting museums and churches to shopping, there are timetables showing when they are open along with a calendar of guided tours for the Christmas period, a list of activities to do with children and a packed notice board publicising a variety of events, from gospel choirs to charity fairs, from exhibitions to shows and venues for Saint Silvester Night.

Lastly, there is a wide selection of proposals for your Christmas and New Year parties and dinners, listing restaurants, castles, villas, clubs, coffe bars and discos.
