Tuscany Hotels

[archie]

Anyone know a decent (but cheap) hotel in Pisa or Florence?

I'd suggest PMing Lambournlass Archie - her sister lives in Tuscany I'm sure & she's been out there on holiday a few times.

Try giving Tony Blair a ring.

Probably not what you want but you can have a look.

No need - I am here!! There is a fantastic youth hostel in Florence with Al Fresco paintings, extensive botanical gardens and fabulous marble floors and stair cases, extremely cheap and well worth staying at. I cant remember the name but it is a very old, grand place. Take a look on the International youth hostel website. The hostel in Pisa is next to a river of what appeared to be raw sewage and a bus ride out of town, not one to recommend but again, extremely cheap (£7 - 10 per night), you dont have to be members. The other hostels in Tuscany are good, would definately recommend LUCCA, hostel is a former monestry and absolutely amazing place!!x

A youth hostel? I'm not sure that archie qualifies for entry...

..or a bail hostel.

Thanks for the feedback. Looks like the trip isn't going ahead now.
