I had a wonderful stay at c-hotels Ambasciatori. The hotel was very clean, well maintained, and conveniently located just across from the train station, making it an excellent base for exploring the city. The room was comfortable, and everything was spotless throughout my stay. What made the experience even better was the staff. Everyone was welcoming, friendly, and always happy to help with directions and recommendations. Their warm hospitality made me feel at home, and I would definitely stay here again on my next visit to Florence.

Easy to use, app is simple and provides good info on train routes etc. A bit pricey at first, but you if you don’t have definite plans and prebooked train tickets months before, will recommend getting this to avoid variable prices.

Bought the Trenitalia pass on Klook and got my e-ticket instantly. Activation was super easy and the QR code worked at every station from Rome to Venice. Trains were punctual, clean, and comfortable. Having unlimited travel saved me so much vs buying single tickets and let me do spontaneous day trips. Klook’s customer support was also responsive when I had a question. Best way to explore Italy by train!

Using a rail pass is convenient for travelers who haven't done their research, but most Eurail passes in Italy require mandatory reservation fees, starting from 13 euros per segment. Over the course of a day, the reservation fees alone can add up significantly, making it quite expensive overall.
