What we love
There are many things that make Villa Medici unique and a top class hotel but not often does a hotel offer such easy access with the train-station at 500 metres away and the international airport of Florence at only 5km away.
The hotel is a pure city oasis, it mixes city life with the country escape feeling. If you are looking for a countryside escape you can easily get lost in the hills central Tuscany which is only at a 20 minutes drive away from the city boarder. Visit Chianti (Greve in Chianti especially) for outstanding wines tasting accompanied by the most tasty cured meats you ave ever tried. Ask the hotel concierge for more insider information.

About Florence Historical Center
Florence Historical Center is one of Europe’s great city-break settings: a compact, walkable Renaissance landscape where world-class art, architecture and Tuscan dining meet at almost every turn. Staying in the historic centre places guests within easy reach of the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, the Uffizi Galleries, Ponte Vecchio and the atmospheric lanes that have shaped Florence for centuries.
The appeal lies in the city’s remarkable concentration of landmarks. Begin with Brunelleschi’s dome and Giotto’s bell tower, pause beside the Arno, then continue through elegant palazzi and lively squares where daily Florentine life unfolds alongside its artistic legacy. The Uffizi and Accademia offer unmissable masterpieces, while smaller churches, artisan workshops and hidden courtyards reward a slower pace of exploration.
The historic centre is equally compelling after dark. Aperitivo on a quiet piazza, candlelit trattorie, independent boutiques and rooftop terraces create a setting that feels both cultured and effortlessly romantic. With most major sights a short stroll apart, a stay here allows more time for long lunches, gallery visits and spontaneous discoveries.
For travellers seeking the essential Florence experience, the Historical Center offers an exceptional base: richly layered, beautifully walkable and filled with the art, atmosphere and Italian elegance that make the city unforgettable.
