The promotion kicks off May 15—timed to the start of Il Genio Fiorentino, a 10-day festival—and runs through December 31. It provides a 10 percent discount at participating hotels and restaurants in Florence and neighboring small towns like Reggello and Barberino Val D’Elsa.
Among the more affordable options, Giovanni da Verrazano, a 10-room hotel overlooking the main piazza of Greve, Chianti, made the cut for our Secret Hotels of Tuscany feature. And we’ve previously recommended the family-run Albergo Serena, an 18th-century building with patterned stone-tile floors, well-worn furnishings, and a convenient location by Florence’s Santa Maria Novella train station.
Americans will also get free admission to the Palazzo Medici, a 20 percent discount on exhibits at the Palazzo Strozzi, and a 15 percent discount on performances at the Teatro del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino.

If even a cheap hotel is too expensive, my all time favorite hostel is in Florence - Ostello Archi Rossi. ( http://www.hostelarchirossi.com/ ) I'd recommend it to anyone!! From the free internet and computers to the free cooked breakfasts, huge dorm rooms, and frescoes on all the walls, it's a great, clean, close to all the action, hostel!
