Four Seasons Hotel, Florence

Hotel Introduction
There aren’t enough adjectives to describe the awe-inspiring spectacle of the Four Seasons. Upon entering the lobby, guests are immediately aware that this hotel is a cut above anything they’ve experienced before. The Renaissance design includes vaulted ceilings, original frescoes and reliefs, and a palazzo-surrounded private park that dates back centuries.

The 116 rooms and suites—all designed to be unique expressions—include bright, beautiful colours, rich fabrics, and original art. But amid this charm is a completely modern guest room with an iPod docking station, satellite TV, printer, multi-line phone with voicemail, and more.

Of course, a hotel as spectacular as the Four Seasons must have an equally impressive restaurant, and Il Palagio delivers. The talented chef creates fresh, seasonal menus or can design a tasting menu that pairs his superb dishes with exceptional wines. Other grand amenities include an impressively large spa and beautiful grounds and gardens to explore.

Dining
From breakfast through dinner, Executive Chef Vito Mollica presents traditional local cuisine with an updated twist at Il Palagio. Guests can dine indoors in plush surroundings that include lovely views of the inner gardens. Another spectacular option is al fresco dining on the restaurant’s terrace, where French doors lead to an experience not to be missed.

The Atrium Bar sits beneath a luminous skylight, providing an elegant atmosphere in which guests can sip traditional cocktails, enjoy a snack, or sit down to afternoon tea.

Spa
Nearly 800 square metres are dedicated to the Four Season’s exquisite spa, complete with 10 sumptuous treatment rooms, relaxation lounges, healthy and delicious meals, outdoor pool, and whirlpool. Technicians use exclusive, natural products made from recipes created by 13th century monks.

The hotel also offers fitness facilities equipped with the latest gear to help guests stay fit while away from home.

Hotel Features
The Four Seasons rolls out the red carpet for even its littlest guests. From gestures like milk and cookies upon arrival to equipping children with books and games to ensuring a child-sized robe is ready for them to slip on after a bath, this hotel knows how to make everyone feel welcome.

Guests can take advantage of onsite activities such as cooking classes with the hotel’s celebrated chef, flower arranging classes, and a personal tour of the palace gardens.
