Nestled in the hills of Fiesole overlooking Florence, Villa San Michele, A Belmond Hotel, Florence, is an emblem of Italian Renaissance architecture and a peaceful sanctuary with panoramic views stretching below. Formerly a 15th century convent with a Michelangelo-inspired façade, it is celebrated for its original historical features and lush terraced gardens, embraced by the woodlands where Leonardo Da Vinci first attempted to fly.
The hotel features 39 completely redesigned rooms and suites, located both in the historical building and the gardens, each designed to enhance a deep connection with the fascinating culture of Florence and the stunning landscapes. The legendary hotel also boasts a Spa by Guerlain, a sanctuary of calm and refinement in the historical building, with three treatment rooms, including one double suite.
The hotel’s three restaurants, including the reimagined fine dining restaurant Antesi, and two stylish bars offer an array of culinary experiences and the opportunity of dining with panoramic views. The heated panoramic pool overlooks three hectares of woodland, which provides the natural backdrop for immersive, energy-raising experiences in partnership with La DoubleJ. With daily complimentary shuttles to Florence, guests can explore the city’s epicentre, its renowned art and acclaimed crafts, and retreat to the hotel for serenity and relaxation.
