De Rose Palace Hotel, Florence

This hotel in the historic centre of Florence is in an ideal location for leisurely strolls along the banks of the river Arno. The Palace Hotel de Rose is also just around the corner from the town's main theatre, the Teatro Communale, where Europe's oldest music festival, the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, is held every May. But throughout the year you can enjoy the theatre's extensive programme of ballet, opera and concerts.

The plush furnishings in traditional Tuscan shades of orange and ochre give the bedrooms at this Florence downtown hotel a warm and homely atmosphere. Satellite TV, radio and telephones in every room allow you to keep in touch and up-to-date with current affairs, but with a mini-bar and en-suite bathroom to enjoy you may prefer to retreat from the outside world. You can have breakfast at the buffet bar or arrange for it to be delivered to your room for a small extra charge.

The hotel also has a health spa where you can relax after a stressful day shopping or sightseeing. Unwind in the Jacuzzi or freshen up by treating yourself to one of the beauty treatments on offer. If you are in Florence for a family break then the babysitting service could give you a much-needed respite from child-centred activities and allow you the time for more grown-up pursuits ... like dining out or admiring the city by night. Business travellers are also well catered for by the hotel's facilities, with photocopying, internet access and dry cleaning all available on site.

This Florence hotel has a lounge and bar area where you can enjoy an aperitivo (aperitif) in the evenings, or if you prefer, it is within easy reach of all the downtown bars and restaurants.
