Palazzo Castri 1874 ★★★★

A masterpiece hotel that captures the artistic ambience of Italy.

Exceptional
9.4 /10
By Catherine McKie, VeryChic correspondent
Florence is a fascinating city and the captivating capital of the Tuscany region. It’s also home to many masterpieces of art and architecture because of its history as the birthplace of the Renaissance. The origin of the word ‘renaissance’ comes from the idea of rebirth and renewal, usually in a spiritual sense and Palazzo Castri 1874, a recently renovated boutique hotel, captures and enshrines these ideals, as well as other intriguing elements that make up the essence of enchanting Italy.
