Design by Gemini's Art Deco interiors give La Gemma a distinctive interpretation of Florentine elegance. Individually designed rooms continue the theme, with private balconies and marble baths in selected suites.
Golden Tower's spa can be reserved for private use, offering a personal wellness break in central Florence. A Turkish bath, whirlpool and sauna are complemented by bookable beauty and body treatments.
Donati's suites bring oak floors and concealed kitchenettes into a medieval Florentine tower. The panoramic rooftop has a whirlpool, while private-chef and in-suite beauty services can be arranged for a tailored stay.
Breakfast beneath the frescoed ceiling of Sala Parlamento is a defining moment at Bernini Palace. The room once welcomed Italian parliamentarians, giving the morning buffet a setting steeped in national history.
Works by Picasso and Cocteau form part of Lungarno's extensive art collection. River-facing living spaces and selected private terraces keep the Arno in view, with Borgo San Jacopo adding a distinctive dining experience.
