Florence
Staying in Florence in a luxury hotel is the best way to fully and completely enjoy the beauty that our wonderful city is able to offer to all visitors.
However, it is not always easy to recognize a luxury hotel in Florence. That is precisely why below we have tried to share how you can distinguish a hotel with a quality spa, from one that may not meet your expectations.
Pay attention to the CALLING card
It is impossible not to start with the calling card: the reception desk. A hotel with a prestige spa will not fail to impress the guest from the moment he or she enters through a dedicated reception that can make a difference in the guest's judgment.
Details are important
It may go without saying, but in a luxury hotel it is mainly the details that make the difference. So, an attractive and diverse menu in the restaurant, a treatment card for the spa, and constant attention from the staff are just a few of the profiles that will make it possible to draw a marked difference between luxury and standard, between impeccable service and one that ... leaves something to be desired.
Position plays its role
Geographic location also plays its role. Although nothing prohibits a high-quality facility from rising and soaring from the outskirts of some metropolis, it is difficult to find a boutique hotel or spa hotel as highly regarded as Palazzo Castri 1874 far from the center or the most prestigious areas of the city.
The quality of time
For a hotel to call itself luxury, it can only reserve for its guests the most prestigious element available: quality time. Whether it is a spa rather than a private garden like La Limonaia-our enchanting oasis, it is important for the hotel to provide its guest with the right and personal relaxation.
A visit to Palazzo Castri 1874
A landmark among luxury hotels in Florence, Palazzo Castri 1874 renews its willingness to welcome with its usual excellence guests who would like to stay in our facility, a boutique hotel where elegance and comfort marry a refined environment, located in the heart of the city, a few steps from some of the main attractions of the Tuscan capital.
We would like to remind you that our luxury hotel offers all visitors a rich buffet breakfast with pastry proposals of our own production. The Florentia Café is ready to welcome all guests in a reserved restaurant with a selection of culinary proposals for lunch and dinner, paired with a selection of local wines. During your stay, it is impossible to miss a wellness break at the Spa with whirlpool, sauna, Turkish bath, emotional showers. And, at the end of the journey, calmly sip herbal tea or a drink in the areas dedicated to our guests.
