Florence - Palazzo Magnani Feroni

Florence - Palazzo Magnani Feroni

In our previous visit, we stayed at what is now the St. Regis. This time, booking at the last minute, I opted for a charming, highly rated and reasonably priced centuries old family Palazzo. Once the home of one of the biggest art dealers in Florence, it has been converted to a 12 suite hotel, The Palazzo Magnani Feroni. Located on the west side of and only a short block from the Arno, the hotel is surrounded by numerous restaurants, bars and shops. By no means is this a 5 star luxury hotel. But it exudes charm and history and features an extraordinarily friendly and wonderful staff. Simply amazing service.  

Beautiful interior with hundreds of original pieces of art.

Just outside our suite, is a sitting area for the four suites on the first floor.

And our suite, The Angelica.

The hotel features a rooftop bar area with spectacular views of Florence.

While Mrs. SFO took a short nap, I explored the immediate area including the Ponte alla Carraia over the Arno.

Time for a drink on the rooftop before we head out for dinner. 

As we had not made any reservations, the front desk/concierge recommended nearby Trattoria Pandemonio. A little touristy with good, but not great food.

A full breakfast was including in our rate.
