This luxury boutique is steeped in opulence, yet manages to keep the vibe warm and inviting.Guests are welcomed into the ornate lobby, adorned with lovely frescoes, heavy drapes, and oriental rugs. Here, pristine white chairs and sofas are scattered underneath the vaulted ceiling with its elegant chandelier. Throughout the hotel, marble staircases are punctuated by tiny lights and clusters of candles.The swanky guest rooms are ideal for relaxing, with plush carpeting, cozy beds, and contemporary Italian furnishings.

Everything from upscale boutiques to popular public squares are within walking distance.Florence is extremely pedestrian-friendly, and is one of Italy's most beautiful cities -- it's more compact, and less gritty, than Rome. The Duomo is the most iconic sight here, but other popular attractions include Michelangelo's "David" at the Galleria dell'Accademia, the works of Botticelli and da Vinci at the Uffizi, and the Ponte Vecchio bridge, which dates back to the 1300s.
