Relais Grand Tour and Grand Tour Suites are two places for hospitality in the same ancient palace, only steps from the Accademia Museum...

These two small gems, hidden away on a quiet street right in the heart of the historical center of Florence, represent something very special for those who decide to stay in this magnificent city. The ambience is that of an elegant Florentine house with original 18th century paving, the hand-crafted lamps diffusing a soft light, the carpets, the quiet elegance of the rooms furnished with antiques, the family paintings, the terracotta and the decorated ceilings.

The entrance from the street ushers in the guests to two different types of accommodation: on the ground floor the Grand Tour Suites offer very large rooms, suitable for up to three people, with doors and windows that open to a plant filled patio, while the Relais Grand Tour, on the second floor offers master bedrooms (some with a view of the gardens), and also integrates the home of the owners, Cristina and Giuseppe, and their small dog Albert.

Both the structures underwent a restoration that lasted many years, during which the owners personally committed themselves to salvage and maintain the many ancient traces that came to light while restoring the property: hence the rebirth of a small private theatre from the 18th century with its stage and place for the audience that the owners of the house open for friends and curious guests, the gold-leaf decorations of some of the room’s ceilings, the colored pavements, and then traces of frescoes in some of the suites, a 15th century fountain on the patio… enjoy the luxury of a vacation within a vacation.
