This historic hotel is located the heart of Florence, close to the Duomo “Cathedral” and directly opposite the Accademia Gallery, which houses the original of Michelangelo's David .
Its location allows you to combine relaxation with a cultural experience: a dip into Renaissance Florence. The building’s façade is in classical Renaissance style, whilst the interior, although subject to various renovations over time, continues to maintain its original period style.
All original fittings, floors and banisters have been restored, and all restoration work has been carried out with full respect for the past. The architecture, furnishings and general décor of the Palazzo Alfani combine a flavour of the past with the most modern technology.By Air:
