"Low off-season rates are a bargain, but even in high season the optimistic prices manage to eke out a sense of value. This old-school Italian inn is more engaging than it is elegant."

Michelin Guide
"Fascinating atmosphere, frescoed halls and elegantly furnished rooms."
Concierge
"Inaugurated in spring 2005, this 24-room hotel offers luxurious accommodation and contemporary style in the shell of a grand, 18th-century palazzo close to the Duomo."
i
When to go: Avoid August (it's hot and full of tourists) and January (cold and damp).
Insight Guides
"Recently restored by the stylish Baglioni group, this is an intimate palazzo for dangerous liaisons, with expansively opulent rooms that are matched by a noted restaurant, Guelfi e Ghibellini."
DK Eyewitness
"This wonderful hotel, in an 18th-century palazzo, is just a short stroll from Michelangelo’s house. Most of its luxurious rooms overlook the street."
Condé Nast Traveler
"This seventeenth-century residence in Florence’s trendy Santa Croce neighborhood has been deftly converted into an upscale 24-room hotel with a contemporary flair."
