Only when you book with ChiccheckBottle of winecheckRoom upgrade (subject to availability)checkEarly check-in / late check-out (subject to availability)Situated on Florence's pedestrianised, high-end shopping street, Antica Torre di Via Tornabuoni 1 is a luxury boutique hotel housed across two historic buildings: a 13th-century tower and Palazzo Gianfigliazzi. They stand proudly a stone's throw from Ponte Santa Trinita and just a few minutes' walk along the banks of the Arno to the famous Ponte Vecchio, with its dinky jewellery shops. An ideally located place to stay in Tuscany's capital; you'll feel looked after and cared for right from the outset.
Dining
Breakfast at Antica Torre di Via Tornabuoni 1 is a traditional Italian buffet, with fresh bread, cakes baked daily, seasonal fruit and pastries. During the summer months, and sometimes even during the cooler ones, it's served on alfresco, where guests can enjoy views of the river and out to the city.
The property's two tower-top terraces – dome and Arno – gives guests vistas over two sides of Firenze; sit up there and enjoy an apéritif or two before settling in for dinner at rooftop restaurant The Tower. Enjoy the likes of pappardelle with wild boar while admiring the views to the Duomo.
Descriptpéritifs
Being so centrally positioned, the hotel has many dining options right on the doorstep. Ristorante Parione is just a few minute's walk away: slightly hidden away, enjoy authentic Tuscan fare (think slow-cooked wild boar and the famous Florentine steak) and truly excellent service. And foodie neighbourhood Oltrarno is just across the bridge: we recommend checking out Gurdulu for innovative cocktails and modern, seasonal fare.

Activities
Florence is the perfect city to explore on foot. Uffizi Gallery is a 5 minute walk along the river from – make a stop there before cutting in and taking a pit stop at artisan gelateria Perché no! for a silky-smooth scoop or two. Then continue to Piazza del Duomo where you'll find Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral and Brunelleschi's octagonal dome – the exterior of the huge Gothic church is covered in an eye-catching mix of pink, white and green marble. The square is also home to the Baptistry of San Giovanni, 84.7-metre Giotto's bell tower, and the Crypt of Santa Reparata.
Walk 5 minutes more and reach Galleria dell'Accademia, where David by Michelangelo is on display (or check out the replica close to the hotel).
It's worth noting that queues for all of the above can be incredibly long; consider buying tickets in advance.
Over the other side of the Arno sit the well-tended Boboli Gardens and Giardino Bardini – peaceful, green spaces that are home to an array of flora, sculptures and fountains. They may be hilly (particularly the former), but make it to the top and enjoy views of the city. Tip: entry to one gains you access to the other.
For a day trip, head to the Tuscan countryside where vineyards await; we recommend Panzano, a small hilltop town located just over an hour away. Dario Cecchini's butchers and restaurants can also be found there (the star of an episode of Chef's Table on Netflix) – ejoy atmospheric, lively surrounds and an array of beef (including the lauded bistecca alla fiorentina). Also worth visiting: Il Vescovino, not only for its wonderful terrace setting, but first-rate Italian fare (truffle pasta is a must), and Le Fonti winery – pick up a bottle of Chianti to take to Dario's.

I stayed here in early July 2020 just as the hotel had reopened after the dramatic covid lockdown. What a magical stay! As soon as you enter you feel in a unique and exclusive place. The hotel has this wonderful 5 star scent in its corridors: I managed to buy the scent in the shop that they source it from so now my own home reminds me of my time in Firenze. The rooms are stunning and authentic. I was lucky enough to be upgraded in honor if it being my last night in Toscany and also because of the hotel just reopening. I've stayed in many top notch hotels in the world but I will always keep a special memory of their Rennaisance Suite: the interior is classy and the view over the river is one of a kind. The rooftop terrace gives you mesmerising views and the opportunity to have a nice drink. Because of Covid there was an honesty bar which defined nicely the unique "entre-nous" ambiance at the time. Location is superb, service tailored. I hope to go back in September!

Truly a fantastic location for lodging when visiting Florence, from the tower there are views of the river, city and surrounding districts.Rooms were large and luxe feeling, with a separate sitting area from the bedroom that worked well for luggage and items, keeping the bedroom free of clutter.The rooftop bar and restaurant is one of the best in the city - listening to the bells at sunset from the roof was a highlight of our visit.Breakfast is included and spectacular. Allow enough time to enjoy the meal before your day starts, it's lovely.
