Select Executive Residence
A quiet Florence base that works for families, pets, and longer stays.
A place to stay in Florence
Select Executive Residence is a 4-star hotel in Florence, Italy, rated 3.6/5 by 312 guests. Rooms look onto an inner courtyard, and the property operates as a fully smoke-free building with key card access and a security alarm throughout. The hotel accepts pets and has family rooms, making it a practical choice when standard city hotels draw the line at both. Daily housekeeping, free Wi-Fi, and air conditioning come as standard across all room types.
Who this stay suits
A no-frills, functional Florence stay with soundproofed rooms, courtyard views, and a genuinely pet-welcoming policy.
Best for
- Guests travelling with pets
- Families needing more space
- Budget-conscious visitors to Florence
- Longer stays requiring daily housekeeping
Less suited to
- Guests who need elevator access (stairs only to upper floors)
- Travellers wanting on-site dining
- Those after a high-design boutique experience
Inner courtyard outlook
Both room types face the inner courtyard rather than the street. It is a straightforward architectural feature, but it shapes the feel of the stay — the views are calm and self-contained, consistent with the soundproofing built into the rooms.
Duplex layout in the loft
The Room Loft Duplex spreads across two levels in 27 square metres. It runs a full bed and an attached bathroom, and the split-level layout gives it a character the standard rooms do not have.
Pet-friendly throughout
Select Executive Residence accepts pets across the property. This is listed as a signature feature, not a discretionary exception — worth knowing if you are travelling with an animal and want certainty before booking.
Security and building access
The hotel operates key card access and a security alarm system. The building is detached, and all rooms are in a smoke-free environment. These are the practical details that matter for guests staying longer than a night or two.

Arriving in Florence
Select Executive Residence is 4.0 km from Florence Airport (FLR), where the T2 tram runs to Firenze Santa Maria Novella. Firenze Santa Maria Novella station is about 1.1 km away, roughly a 15-minute walk. Florence operates a ZTL limited-traffic zone in its historic centre, where cameras issue automatic fines to unauthorised vehicles. No parking is listed here, so check where to leave a car before driving into the centre. Italian cities charge a tourist tax (tassa di soggiorno) per person per night, collected by the property rather than included in the booking total; the rate depends on the city and the property's star rating, and many properties still take it in cash.
Across 312 reviews, guests give the property a score of 3.6/5. The themes guests mention most positively are the staff, the free Wi-Fi, and the overall comfort of the rooms. The pet-friendly policy and family room availability are listed as property highlights, suggesting these draw a specific, returning type of guest.
