Hotel Brunelleschi
Booking a suite of this 4-star hotel in central Florence means entering the heart of the city, getting to know its historical roots. Our hotel bears the name of one of the old owners of the building, Filippo Brunelleschi, a wonderful Renaissance artist author of the Dome of Santa Maria del Fiore.
The very Torre della Pagliazza (541-544 AD), a unique building in the whole Tuscan capital and symbol of the hotel, is one of the remotest buildings within the city walls and today houses the Pagliazza Tower Suite on the third and fourth floor, a conference hall for business meetings on the second floor, the 2 Michelin Star Gourmet Restaurant Santa Elisabetta on the first floor, and the Osteria Pagliazza on the ground floor.
Let yourself be accompanied by the concierge at the Museo della Pagliazza among the archaeological finds discovered during the excavations in the basement of the Torre della Pagliazza and you will be able to study closely a Roman “calidarium”, a hammam used in ancient times for the sauna. You will also admire fragments from the Roman era and a Renaissance collection of Montelupo ceramics.
The luxurious lobby of the boutique hotel in the centre of Florence is located where once stood the church of San Michele, known as “in Palchetto”.
