Welcome to Four Seasons Hotel Firenze. An enchanted city sanctuary in the midst of Florence, where an art-filled Renaissance palazzo and conventino frame a centuries-old private park. Relax amidst original frescoes and sculptured reliefs, graced by sunlight and airy garden vistas. Sip cappuccino under majestic trees, lounge by the open-air pool or bask in Italian spa secrets. Wonders of the Uffizi and Duomo are a stroll away. Tuscan hill towns beckon.
"Renaissance palazzo? Check. Fifteenth-century frescoes? Check. Florence’s largest private garden? Check. If you’ve ever imagined what it might be like to sleep in the Pitti Palace, look no further. A stay at the Four Seasons Florence will make all your Medici fantasies come true. The former papal residence, a short walk from the Duomo, has been meticulously restored. Guest rooms are decorated in silks and velvets chosen to set off the delicate tones of the original quattrocento painted ceilings. All this and the Tuscan countryside, too, in chef Vito Mollica’s locally sourced menu: eggs come from a farm outside Pisa, Cinta Senese salami from Siena, and olive oil from nearby Mont Amiata."
