Hotel Unicorno, Florence

Occupying a superb location in central Florence, this hotel in Italy puts you at the heart of the fascinating Renaissance city. The Hotel Unicorno maintains the original features of the fifteenth century building in which it sits, seasoning the old with a most elegant contemporary flavour.

The hotel, most recently refurbished in 2003, sits on the Via dei Fossi in the centre of the Tuscan city. This area, close to the main railway station at Santa Maria Novella, is perfect for seeing the sights of the city.

Every room has a bathroom with either a tub or a shower, direct-dial telephone, air conditioning, satellite TV, safe, hairdryer and a socket for connecting your laptop computer to the internet. There are single, double and triple rooms, and children of six and below stay free with their parents. This hotel in Florence boasts all the comforts you would expect - a dry cleaning and laundry service, concierge and 24-hour front desk, safes for your valuables, and left luggage and storage facilities. The hotel staff will also be happy to organise tickets to the Accademia and Uffizi galleries, and for the Verdi, Communale and La Pergola theatres.

And there's an enormous amount to see in the immediate area: the church of Santa Maria Novella itself (and even the rail station next door is a minor masterpiece of Modernist architecture). A short walk takes you to the Duomo, Florence's cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, its magnificence topped by Brunelleschi's extraordinary dome. You could spend days and weeks exploring this area and never exhaust its cultural treasures. The staff at this hotel in Florence will be delighted to help you plan your itinerary while you are holidaying in the city.
