Florence by car

Multi-day parking in Florence: weekends and longer stays

Leaving your car in Florence for a weekend or a longer holiday means looking at three things: the daily rate, the hours for collecting the car and the distance from your accommodation. Here is how a long stay works in our guarded garages and which to choose if collection falls on a weekend.

For several days you pay the daily rate for each 24 hours of stay, in guarded garages. For a weekend choose Fiesolana or Via Venezia: Borgo Pinti is closed Saturday and Sunday and the car cannot be collected.

How the multi-day rate works

Up to 4 hours you pay by the hour; beyond that the daily rate applies, covering 24 hours of stay. A multi-day stay is therefore calculated in days. The base rates by vehicle type are:

  • small car: 35 € a day or 7 € an hour;
  • medium and large car: 40 € a day or 8 € an hour;
  • luxury, van and minivan: 50 € a day or 10 € an hour.

For example, two full days with a small car are two daily rates. For hours beyond whole days, ask the garage before booking.

Guarded garages, inside the ZTL

The three garages are guarded and located in the historic centre, inside the ZTL. The garage registers your plate on the City’s S.A.S. portal when you arrive: you do not need to send the plate in advance. The permit covers your transit up to 3 hours before your stay begins, the minimum stay is 1 hour, and it is not valid in bus and taxi lanes or pedestrian areas.

If you want to take the car out during your stay and then come back, ask the garage how it works: it depends on opening hours and the facility. For the area’s rules read the Florence ZTL guide and the Florence ZTL hours.

Collection hours

When a garage is closed, the car cannot be collected, so for a long stay your departure date matters:

Check your arrival time too: before you travel decide the day and time you will pick up the car and make sure it falls within the garage’s hours.

For a weekend: Fiesolana or Via Venezia

Borgo Pinti is closed on Saturday and Sunday, so if your stay includes a weekend or you need to collect the car on those days, for the weekend we recommend City Parking Fiesolana or City Parking Via Venezia. Fiesolana is open every day from 7:00 to 23:30, Via Venezia from 7:00 to 21:00 Monday to Saturday and from 8:00 to 21:00 on Sunday.

If you have already chosen Garage Firenze Borgo Pinti for its location, ask the garage before booking how a stay works on its closed days.

Choosing by your accommodation

For accommodation near Santa Croce or the Duomo the natural choice is Fiesolana; for San Marco and the Accademia, Via Venezia. With a hotel inside the ZTL see also hotel inside the ZTL. The walk with luggage matters as much as the price: measure the distance on the map.

How to book

You can book directly with the garage, with no intermediaries: choose the garage, enter your arrival and collection dates and the vehicle type. Check you have entered the full duration, keep the confirmation on your phone and arrive within the garage’s hours. For other questions about arriving by car see driving to Florence.
