Welcome to our fine establishment - once the Convent of the Suore Della Carita back in the 1800's. Today we take pride of place in the heart of Florence and present a place of charm, elegance, style and sophistication. Marble sculptures, splendid columns, tasteful decor, glass chandeliers, fine furnishings and all the trappings of regal living. Spacious ensuite rooms that have all the richness and comfort for your total relaxation and delight.
Just a short walk takes you to the heart centre of culture, art, great philosophers, writers and explorers. It is now your turn to do the exploring and marvel at the great masters of times gone by. Be sure to pay homage to the Cathedral that takes pride of place - Santa Maria dei Fiore displays a massive dome that was designed by the great Giotti - there are some 500 steps up to the top where you are rewarded with splendid views over the entire city. Inside you are treated to a feast of fabulous frescoes, marvellous mosaics and gentle glass painted panes that each tell their own story.
Visit to the museums, art galleries and monuments are a must here - there are so many but the main places to view are the Galleries of Uffizi - filled with Botticellis, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Caravaggio and many more. Gallery of the Accademie is the place to find David - the one piece marble sculpture that was created by the great Michelangelo.
Parks, places, piazzas and palaces adorn the city and the greatest garden of all is that of Boboli which surrounds the Palace of Pitti - fabulous fountains, ponds, hedges and foliage for a totally relaxing experience.
