Local tips
Morning ritual
Start your day at WayCup Coffee on Zevulun Street, the neighborhood's pulse. Best enjoyed slowly, with a fresh flaky pastry and street art views.

Grab a brew from Levinsky Market and watch the city turn gold from our rooftop, or head to the beachfront promenade (a 15-minute walk) for a sunset at the horizon.
Coastal rhythms
For serenity, hit the shore at 7:00 AM. For the legendary Tel Aviv buzz, Friday afternoon at the beach is when the matkot players and the energy come alive.
Florentine, in numbers and in minutes
We are on Zevulun Street. Cafés, galleries and nightlife are close, yet the street stays calm and residential.
Florentine is Tel Aviv at its most relaxed: independent cafés, small bars, and the food and spice stalls of Levinsky Market right by the hotel. Neve Tzedek, Shenkin Street and Jaffa are a short walk or ride away, and so is the sea.
