Florence is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, and if you are planning to visit there anytime soon, don't delay getting a Florence hotel reservation as early as possible. You should do that before you make any other plans.
Actually, there are a lot of accommodations in Florence, ranging from not-very-expensive in US Dollars to very expensive. A good way to start is checking the Internet and search "central hotel florence" or "charming hotel in florence": you will find a list of some of the best places to lodge in Florence.
However, don't stop there because many agencies offer good prices and all kinds of amenities. You may even find a site that has a sale on hotels in Florence at the time you wish to travel there. If you want to stay in a central hotel in Florence, you might consider the following possibilities:
