Immerse yourself in renaissance-era opulence right in the heart of Florence, courtesy of Al Palazzo di Camugliano
Hidden away from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet just a short walk from many of Florence’s main attractions, the darling Palazzo di Camugliano offers you an enchanting glimpse into a noble lifestyle of the 16th Century.
A wonderful equilibrio of privacy and access, this gem of a residence is the epitome of sophistication and regalness. Offering eleven different suites to choose from, all lavishly bedecked with era-specific furnishings, high ceilings, and fine art, the Palazzo di Camugliano may be small in size but large in personality.
The majestic home away from home also boasts two sitting rooms, a frescoed dining room, and a buffet room, which all guests can enjoy.
As a patron of this boutique hotel, you also have access to the charming inner roof garden. The hanging garden, adorned with climbing plants and lanterns, is the perfect hideaway.
Enjoy a cup of tea before you embark on the day’s adventures or, perhaps, an aperitif after a full day of taking in city landmarks, including the Ponte Vecchio bridge and Piazza della Signoria square, both of which are less than a mile away.
