Hotel Boccaccio
Via della Scala 59, Florence 50123

Taking its name from the illustrious Tuscan poet, Giovanni Boccaccio, this hotel harmoniously combines contemporary comforts and authentic Florentine style in a building from the 1700s.

During the hotel’s recent and diligent restructuring, the building was extended with the addition of original Carrara marble and numerous modern luxuries.

Hotel Boccaccio can be found in the heart of the historic city centre, in an area between the River Arno and the Church of Santa Maria Novella. It is a short stroll from the railway station, from Piazza Duomo and from the Church of San Lorenzo. This enviable position makes it possible to enjoy, with just a few minutes’ walk, the romantic atmosphere of the Ponte Vecchio, the art in the Galleria degli Uffizi and the treasures of the Galleria dell’Accademia.

Alongside the palaces and monuments, one can find artisan workshops, small cafes and prestigious boutiques along the elegant Florentine streets. Their products, just as in the past, render the name of Florence famous throughout the world.

Rooms : 23.
