Albergotto Hotel, Florence

The Albergotto Hotel is conveniently situated in central Florence (Firenze) overlooking the fabulous Palazzo Strozzi. This area was known in the 19th century as the "drawing room of Europe" and travellers from all over the world travelled here to see the great art and to rub shoulders with the fashionable set that gathered here. Among the roll-call of famous guests, this hotel in Florence can count the composers Verdi and Donizetti as well as the English writer, George Eliot among its number.

Having recently undergone a comprehensive programme of renovation and refurbishment, this former private aristocratic residence has been welcoming guests since the end of the Second World War.
