4-star historic hotel with a 16th-century garden in Florence
Historic Garden & Terrace
Hotel Orto De' Medici has an internal garden dating back to the 16th century, a feature that distinguishes it from other hotels in Florence. The panoramic terrace offers views of the city skyline, including the Duomo. Guests can relax in the lounge, which is decorated with original frescoes and antique furniture, or stroll through the garden for a quiet retreat from the tourist crowds.
Rooms & Building
The historic building includes a Tuscan stone staircase and a corridor with vaulted ceilings. All air-conditioned rooms come with satellite TV, a minibar, and a private bathroom; some rooms overlook the medieval roofs or the garden. The rooms are spacious by European standards and are cleaned daily by the housekeeping staff.
Location & Neighborhood
The hotel is a 10-minute walk from the Duomo and within easy walking distance of the Galleria dell'Accademia and Ponte Vecchio. It sits on a quiet street away from the busiest tourist areas, yet it is close to Santa Maria Novella Train Station and public transport links. The surrounding neighborhood offers restaurants, shops, and a laundry service just one block away.
Dining & Breakfast
A daily continental breakfast includes fresh pastries, fresh orange juice, and a selection of cheeses and cold cuts. Breakfast hours are extended compared to those of many local hotels, and complimentary welcome drinks are offered upon arrival. In the evening, the breakfast room becomes a bar where guests can enjoy an aperitivo.
Family & Activities
The hotel provides bicycle rental and arranges walking tours and cultural exploration tours for guests. Families find the hotel suitable, with spacious triple rooms and family-oriented amenities like luggage storage and early check-in upon request. The 24-hour front desk, concierge service, and valet parking add convenience for all travelers.
