Florence City, Florence, Italy

Tivoli Palazzo Gaddi Firenze pairs its lavish interiors with an elegant food and drink scene. Mornings usually begin with a generous breakfast spread served in richly decorated salons, where stucco work and frescoes set a suitably grand tone for the day. Expect a mix of continental favourites, pastries, fruit and hot options to fuel a full day of galleries and churches.

The hotel’s headline act is its rooftop bar and terrace, a favourite for sundowners with views over terracotta rooftops to Brunelleschi’s dome. It’s an atmospheric spot for pre‑dinner drinks or a nightcap under the Tuscan sky.

A refined lobby bar and lounge area typically offer Italian wines, classic cocktails and light bites throughout the day and evening, so you can break up sightseeing with a Negroni or espresso without leaving the palazzo.

Florence’s restaurant scene is on your doorstep, from traditional trattorie serving bistecca alla fiorentina to contemporary enoteche – the concierge can usually recommend and reserve local favourites for you.

As an intimate city‑centre palazzo, Tivoli Palazzo Gaddi Firenze does not feature a swimming pool or direct beach access – instead, its open‑air focus is the panoramic rooftop terrace.

Here you’ll find a stylish urban retreat in the sky, with comfortable seating and a bar service that makes the most of Florence’s golden light at sunset. It’s the ideal place to unwind with a drink after a day in the Uffizi, soaking up views of the Duomo and surrounding rooftops rather than sand and sea.

The hotel’s draw is less about gyms and gadgets and more about atmosphere and service. Within the palazzo you’ll find:

• Atmospheric lounges and salons for reading, relaxing or planning your sightseeing
• 24‑hour reception and concierge – ideal for museum reservations, restaurant bookings and local tips
• Lift access to guest floors within the historic building
• Luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures

While there isn’t an on‑site spa or full fitness centre, staff can usually assist with arranging nearby wellness facilities, massage services or jogging routes along the Arno for guests who like to balance art with activity.
