Our Readers’ Favorite Hotels in Florence of 2023
"Set regally along the banks of the Arno in a palazzo originally built for the Giuntini family, this hotel evokes a members’ club for modern-day Medicis with grand balconies, canopied beds, brocade-draped windows and crystal chandeliers; guests strongly recommend upgrading to a river-view room. Its 19 suites include one designed by Bottega Veneta, additional private suites complement a luxurious Clarins spa, and the Winter Garden restaurant—where aperitivi and Tuscan cuisine are served—is frequently cited as the property's most impressive setting. Readers called it utterly magical." - Nina Ruggiero Nina Ruggiero Travel + Leisure Senior Editorial Director Nina Ruggiero oversees T+L's award-winning travel content across digital platforms.
