On Piazza Ognissanti beside the Arno, The Excelsior, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Florence occupies a grand palazzo setting close to Ponte Vecchio and the historic centre. Its 171 rooms and suites pair classical Florentine proportions with refreshed contemporary polish, with many overlooking the river or opening to private balconies and terraces. The lobby and library bring a quieter residential rhythm, while COSIMO rooftop bar and restaurant frames Florence in 360-degree views over domes, towers and Tuscan hills. Breakfast is served in Sala Caminetto, with meeting spaces and a fitness centre completing the city address.
