The former monastery, which dates back to 1527, opened as a boutique hotel in 1996. It has just 38 spacious rooms, each with air-conditioning, cable TV, internet connections, a minibar and safe, bringing this historic palazzo right into the 21st century. Set on a popular pedestrianized piazza, the Loggiato dei Serviti has views of the Duomo from some of its windows and from the rooftop terrace.

Guest rooms are traditionally decorated in elegant Florentine style, from the wooden flooring to the raftered ceilings to retain a stylish yet serene atmosphere. Canopied beds and antique furnishings decorate each charmingly individual bedroom. The walls and ceilings in some of the haphazardly shaped rooms are decorated with detailed frescoes.

This luxury boutique hotel is ideally located as a base for exploring all the wonders that Florence has to offer. The atmospheric bar is open throughout the day and into the evening to welcome guests’ return with drinks or cocktails.
