Property details

A sumptuous stay at an 18th-century villa, close to the heart of Florence - includes breakfast, plus suite and dinner options
  • Italian elegance: With enough neoclassical splendour, glittering mosaics and centuries-old objets d’art to keep design-conscious guests wide-eyed for weeks, this 18th-century villa-turned-boutique hotel is as gorgeous as it gets. And the setting’s not bad either; Palazzo Montebello sits in one of Florence’s loveliest residential neighbourhoods, just 15 minutes from the city’s showstopping sights.

  • Tasty treats: Begin each morning with a delicious and varied buffet breakfast spread, featuring both international favourites and continental classics, as well as a selection of local produce. For relaxed evening tipples, the sleek bar serves classy cocktails and a selection of carefully-chosen red and white wines, as well as an all-day bar menu for when you get peckish.

  • Sumptuous style: Bordered by a Palladian peristyle, the pretty piazza with its bronze fountain and flowering vertical garden is the heart of the palazzo, and the perfect place to sit and soak up the warm evening atmosphere. Overlooked by wrought-iron balconies and shuttered windows, it's easy to imagine yourself transported back in time as you sip a glass of fine Tuscan wine.

How to get there

The hotel is located in the heart of Florence, just a 10-minute walk from Santa Maria Novella Train Station. Florence Airport is just seven kilometres away, taking around 15 minutes by car or 20 minutes by public transport.

Via Giuseppe Garibaldi 14, 50123, Florence, Italy

You’ll be staying in one of Florence’s loveliest residential areas, just a short walk from the banks of the River Anro and around 15 minutes from the city centre. Days can be spent revelling in Botticelli paintings at the iconic Uffizi Gallery, marvelling at Michelangelo’s David at the Galleria dell'Accademia, climbing either Duomo’s Dome or Giotto’s Tower (or both), and paying your respects at the gravesides of Galileo, Machiavelli, Rossini, Michelangelo, and more.

Further Florentine thrills include people-watching in the Piazza della Signoria, enjoying ravishing city views from Piazzale Michelangelo, and stopping wherever you can for a scoop of gelato.
