Hotel Lungarno Information
Description
Few cities can rival Florence. As the cultural capital of the world, it is a monument to the Renaissance. Striding the Arno that runs through the heart of the city, is the world-famous Ponte Vecchio. Standing on the south bank nearby and overlooking The Uffizi, Palazzo Vecchio, the Duomo and the Florentine campaniles, is Hotel Lungarno where you have your own 'Room with a view'. ,Following its own renaissance, prompted by the Ferragamo family, the guest rooms are luxurious, not to say dramatic, and splendidly appointed. The restaurant, Borgo San Jacopo, overlooks the River Arno as it offers the timeless taste of Italian home cuisine. The hotel is famous for its great character and legendary hospitality. Now a new two-bedroom suite has been added overlooking the river in a neighbouring 15th century building containing a large living room and patio with butler service and a private chef available on request.
