Hotel Stella d'Italia

Hotel Stella d'Italia, a grand three-floor Renaissance palazzo, gives the feeling of staying in a fabulous private home right in the heart of Florence. The brainchild of visionary hoteliers Matteo Perduca and Betty Soldi, each of its twenty-four rooms layers fascinating artistic detail and memorabilia that have shaped Italy's rich cultural history. Enjoy breakfast in the beautiful salone, which boasts an 18th-century wraparound fresco and tables hewn from numerous colourful varieties of Italian marble. A lift to the top floor brings you to a breezy loggia terrace that is just the secret spot for an aperitivo as you take in views of tiled rooftops and the Tuscan hills beyond.
