Hotel Cellai

About

Hotel Cellai is a meticulously restored 19th‑century palace that has been transformed into a 4‑star boutique haven perched in the very heart of Florence’s historic centre. Guests step into an intimate, home‑like atmosphere where antique furnishings, original artworks and carefully curated contemporary accents coalesce to create a romantic and culturally rich retreat. The hotel’s 52‑room inventory is one‑of‑a‑kind: each space is individually designed with high‑quality linens, sound‑proof windows and the comforts of modern technology such as flat‑screen TVs, satellite channels and free Wi‑Fi. The property boasts a host of amenities that elevate the stay beyond simple accommodation. A charming, flower‑filled roof garden – “La Terrazza” – offers sweeping views of Florence’s rooftops and hills, while the on‑site Library Bar provides a quiet setting for an evening glass of Chianti or a cappuccino under soft lighting. For business travellers or event hosts, the spacious meeting gallery “Spazio Bianco” delivers a chic, all‑white backdrop suitable for conferences, product launches or fashion shows, complemented by a banquet area and state‑of‑the‑art audio‑visual support. The hotel’s seasoned concierge is on hand 24 hours to arrange museum reservations, private tours, airport or train station pick‑ups (for a fee), and to curate secret itineraries that uncover Florence’s hidden churches and artisan shops. Location is itself an attraction: the hotel sits a few steps from the Accademia di Belle Arti (home of Michelangelo’s David), the iconic Duomo, the bustling San Lorenzo Market and the historic Ponte Vecchio. Whether you wish to stroll through the medieval streets, sample the city’s culinary delights, or simply relax in an elegant room after a day of sightseeing, Hotel Cellai offers the perfect blend of historic charm, contemporary comfort and personalised service. A complimentary breakfast buffet – served in the intimate Winter Garden – features a selection of fresh pastries, cheeses, fruit, bread, yogurt, and strong espresso, ensuring you start each day in true Florentine style.
