The building dates back to the sixteenth century, and inside you’ll find ornate period architectural details exist comfortably alongside contemporary Italian designer furniture.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Antique dealers line Via Maggio outside, with Palazzo Pitti and the Santa Trinita bridge just a short walk away.
The rooms
Individually styled rooms feature sixteenth-century ceiling frescoes, exposed timber beams, and freestanding clawfoot bathtubs beside retro Italian furniture.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Breakfast is served in the shared kitchen, where handmade cakes and pastries sit beside shelves of vintage mugs.
