A Renaissance palazzo inside an 11-acre private garden, with Florence's only full spa and an outdoor pool. The calmest luxury stay in the city.

You want space, a pool and a garden to come back to after a day of museums.

You want to be right on the Arno or steps from Ponte Vecchio. It's a 10 to 15 minute walk to the Duomo.

The Four Seasons occupies two historic buildings, a palazzo with original frescoes and a former convent, set inside one of the largest private gardens in Florence. It's a short walk from the Accademia and the Duomo, but it feels like a countryside estate.


It's the best pick in Florence for families and for anyone who wants a pool and a spa. Service is excellent, and it's a natural first stop before heading out to the Tuscan countryside.
