About the location:
An urban retreat steeped in historic beauty. Stroll the city's biggest private garden ? a tranquil haven of statues, fountains and centuries-old trees ? or retire to your suite where frescoes line the walls amid original architectural features. Our historic Hotel, with its Michelin-starred Italian restaurant and a locally inspired Spa where you can spend afternoons in pure indulgence, is just steps away from the cultural heart of Florence.
