This well-worn old shoe of a place occupies in one of the only remaining palazzi on this block between the Pitti Palace and Ponte Vecchio.
The inn's star is the flower-bedecked, sun-kissed terrace offering a 360˚ vista over the Boboli Gardens, the Oltrarno rooftops, and (beyond a sea of antennas) the monumental heart of Florence.
Return visitors book months in advance for the refinished rooms that mix a bit of antique flair with modern furnishings and parquet floors.
Street-side accommodations have double-paned windows that really do block the noise.
