This 4 star Hotel is centrally located and within walking distance of all major attractions. Housed in a 13th monastery, it is considered one of the most charming and intriguing hotels in Florence. To this day, the predominant theme throughout the hotel is terracotta flooring, frescoed ceilings supported by thick wooden beams, Romanesque columns, vaults and antique pieces of furniture. The building underwent a major renovation that brought back its original Renaissance splendor. Being housed in a historic building, the amenities of this property had to be limited to the restrictions imposed by the city of Florence. A breakfast room,gym and a parking garage are available to guests. The 58 rooms are decorated in traditional Florentine-style: vaulted ceilings with exposed thick wooden beams, frescoed ceilings (in some rooms) and terracotta pavements. They are all equipped with air conditioning, minibar, plasma TV screens and direct-dial telephone.
