The Florentine blends elegant charm with modern comfort, nestled in a quiet corner just outside Sheffield’s bustling city center. With recently refurbished rooms, a popular bar, and free on-site parking, it’s a smart choice for music lovers looking to unwind in style after the show.

Why Concert-goers love it

This boutique hotel is just a 16-minute drive from Motorpoint Arena Sheffield and only 11 minutes from the O2 Academy, making gig nights super convenient. After a high-energy concert, guests appreciate the peaceful atmosphere and the ease of getting back for a good night’s sleep. Free parking is a big plus for those driving in, and flexible check-in from 14:00 means you can freshen up before heading out. The quiet neighborhood vibe makes it ideal for post-show recovery.
