4-star hotel on the Arno River with a rooftop pool offering panoramic views of Florence
Rooftop Pool & Bar
The hotel operates an exclusive rooftop pool with a pool bar and sun loungers, providing views of Santa Croce, the Duomo, and the Arno River. The Empireo rooftop bar serves drinks and snacks while guests take in the city panorama. The pool is open seasonally and measures knee-deep, intended for refreshing dips rather than swimming.
Dining & Breakfast
The on-site restaurant serves traditional Tuscan cuisine using local ingredients, with dinner requiring advance reservations. A daily American buffet breakfast is offered each morning until 10:30, including sweet and savory options, eggs, pastries, and charcuterie. The lobby bar features a Dante-inspired cocktail menu and provides complimentary snacks with drinks.
Rooms & Accommodations
Guest rooms are air-conditioned with soundproof windows, satellite flat-screen TVs, minibars, and private bathrooms; some rooms include balconies overlooking the Arno River or Santa Croce. The family duplex accommodates up to four guests across two connected rooms with a small balcony. River-view rooms also offer views of Piazza Michelangelo and the hills beyond Florence.
Location & Landmarks
Set on the bank of the Arno River, the hotel is a 10-minute walk from Piazza della Signoria and the Uffizi Gallery. Ponte Vecchio is within a 15-minute walk, and the Piazza Michelangelo viewpoint is less than 1.5 km away. Santa Maria Maggiore di Firenze is reachable in 15 minutes on foot, and the Santa Croce neighborhood offers a quieter setting than the city center.
Family & Pet Services
The hotel welcomes pets of all sizes and provides pet baskets and bowls upon request. Babysitting and child services are available for families with young children. Family rooms and the duplex suite are designed for groups of up to four, and daily housekeeping includes turndown service with evening chocolates.
