"A historic Florentine grand dame that dates to the late 19th century and has been refreshed by a recent renovation, combining the more traditional Helvetia wing—ornate gilt mirrors and brocade wallpaper—with a modern Bristol wing featuring sleek, gray-and-marble rooms designed by Anouska Hempel; public spaces now include a restaurant and café from a beloved local group and a soothing spa located in the footprint of an original Roman bathhouse." - Laura Itzkowitz, Erica Firpo
