for anyone considering droppoff in florence try staying at the hotel granducato in campi besenzio. campi besenzio is a dump. but- the hotel is nice and small and cheap (by florence standards) about 165 euros. arranging a pickup here is a lot easier than doing so in downtown florence which is a complete zoo. everything worked out very well for me. they even have a shuttle bus into florence.

yes, florence hotels are outrageously expensive! BTW, Bee, isnt the M6 an 07? should i get shadowline trim as an aftermarket install? i think i can get installed for about 500 dollars. doesnt sound like much on a 55k car, but i feel i have spent enough on this rig for now!

If you have Starwood points, you may want to try the Sheraton Firenze. It is only 7000 points (it used to be 3-4000). A relative bargain.

Beewang, I am going to Venice (actually Mestra) and staying in a 4-star for eur135. In Rome, we are in a boutique hotel across the street from the Colesium for eur140.
It all depends on who books for you. That's doubly important in Italy. My company used an agent for a meeting in Rome last April; he booked these hotels for me as a favor. So, you can get nice hotels in Italy for a fair price.

I stayed in Villa Fiesole for less than that. Hotels have so many different prices for the same room. You have to do your research.
