Historic 14th-century palazzo opposite Boboli Gardens in Florence
History & Character
Hotel Annalena is housed in a 14th-century palazzo that once belonged to noble families and later served as a refuge for revolutionaries. Antique furnishings and classic decor differentiate each room, with ties to the Medici family and French royalty. The lobby and breakfast area feel like a museum, preserving the building's original artworks and sculptures.
Rooms
Each room is uniquely decorated with antique furniture, chandeliers, and tiled floors, offering spacious layouts with high ceilings. Some rooms include outdoor balconies overlooking the gardens or a private terrace with courtyard views. Rooms like the Suite with Balcony provide direct sightlines to the Boboli Gardens.
Location
The hotel sits opposite the Boboli Gardens and a few steps from Palazzo Pitti, placing guests in a quiet Oltrarno neighborhood away from tourist crowds. Ponte Vecchio is 700 meters away, the Uffizi Gallery a 10-minute walk, and Florence Cathedral 15 minutes on foot. Nearby streets offer restaurants, bars, and a laundromat within easy reach.
Dining
A daily buffet breakfast serves fresh fruit, pastries, hard-boiled eggs, assorted meats, juice, and coffee (coffee and some items carry an extra charge). The hotel staff can recommend local trattorias and eateries around the Oltrarno district. No on-site restaurant is available for lunch or dinner, but dozens of dining options lie within a 5-minute walk.
Services
Staff offer personalized local navigation assistance, help with luggage up the two flights of stairs, and baggage storage before check-in or after checkout. Concierge service, tour desk, express check-in/check-out, and 24-hour security are available. Safety deposit boxes and key-access locks add security for guests exploring the city.
