Four Seasons Hotel Firenze
Two Renaissance palazzi set in a private park, a 10 to 15 minute walk from the Duomo.
Florence has very little green space in its centre, which is what makes this hotel unusual. Its 116 rooms are split between the frescoed Palazzo della Gherardesca and the Conventino, a former convent, and both open onto about 11 acres of private gardens with a pool. Rooms keep their antiques and painted ceilings, and the suites are very large, though entry rooms are compact. Il Palagio and the poolside trattoria are reasons to stay in for dinner, and the Atrium Bar is popular with locals for a Negroni. The Duomo is a 10 to 15 minute walk.
What guests say
Guests come back to the same three things: the gardens, the pool and staff who go out of their way, especially the concierge team. Breakfast earns near-constant praise, and several say a meal by the pool was their best in Florence. A few note the walk into the centre, which most see as the price of the calm.
Guest highlights
- A guest liked having the city on the doorstep and a quiet garden pool to retreat to in the heat of the afternoon.
- One couple singled out the concierge, who arranged everything they asked for and more.
- Several guests named the poolside restaurant as their best meal in Florence.
Summarised from feedback shared by guests who booked through Fora advisors.
Advisor notes
Advisors who know the hotel call it an urban resort, and suggest booking a suite or a connecting pair for families, since entry rooms feel tight.
