I needed a place near the Firenze train station and Hotel Ester was perfect. It was only a five minute walk from the station and the staff at reception were very quick and attentive to my needs. When I retrieved my suitcase after 12 days in storage, it was ready in the reception area and I was able to pick it up quickly and return to the station easily in time for my train. Totally satisfied with this location for luggage storage!
- Vincent
It was easy to drop and take back our luggage, and the place is easy to find. But it doesnt't look very rigorous nor securized.

Very convenient, and the point of deposit is a hotel so they open 24/7.
- Cyriel
Super relaxed to be able to store your luggage somewhere, close to the bus station to the airport... The staff member was very accommodating when he realized we were in a hurry during pickup...

Luggage storage and bag rules at Florence Cathedral
Most visitors to the Duomo arrive with a day's worth of sightseeing ahead of them, and the cathedral itself has no place to leave a bag while they climb the dome or circle the square.
The nearby Uffizi Gallery also turns away suitcases and large backpacks, but it does offer a free cloakroom for anything you can't bring inside. Santa Maria Novella station, a short walk from the cathedral, runs a staffed left-luggage desk where you can drop bags for the day before heading to the Duomo. If you're carrying a suitcase or large bag, you'll need to leave it at the official storage point at Piazza del Duomo 38/r before entering. If you're only visiting the Opera del Duomo Museum, use its own cloakroom at Piazza del Duomo 9 instead. Florence Cathedral is formally known as the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Flower. The cathedral sits within the Piazza del Duomo in Florence's historic centre. With Stasher, you can store bags from €1.49 a day at 20+ locations near the Florence Cathedral.
