The property’s elegant rooms—ranging from Standard to Junior Suite, and from Matrimonial to Deluxe Suite—are furnished in classic Florentine style and provide breathtaking views of the surrounding Tuscan hills and the city’s iconic skyline. In addition to the sophisticated accommodations, the hotel boasts an expansive private park, complete with a central fountain, lush greenery, and the renowned Giardino della Duchessa, an idyllic setting for leisurely breakfasts, romantic dinners, or relaxed afternoon teas. The villa’s location is one of its greatest assets. Just a few minutes from Florence’s historic centre, the hotel sits amid the illustrious gardens of the Villa Arrighetti, offering sweeping vistas that include the San Miniato al Monte basilica and the Piazzale Michelangelo. Guests can stroll through the meticulously maintained *giardino all’italiana*, featuring rare fruit trees, olive groves, and a venerable century‑old wisteria that creates a serene backdrop for both leisure and formal events. Culinary experiences are at the heart of the hotel’s appeal. The on‑site restaurant, La Duchessa, presents a thoughtfully crafted Tuscan menu that caters to a variety of dietary preferences, from classic Florentine steak to vegetarian and vegan options. Light lunches serve a selection of bruschette, salads, and sandwiches, while dinner windows open from 19:00 to 22:00 every evening. The restaurant’s intimate atmosphere, paired with locally sourced ingredients and the hotel’s friendly staff, makes it a favoured spot for both guests and locals alike.
