Hotel Lungarno

Arty on the Arno

What it is

A medium-sized hotel with a great location and a dazzling collection of art.

What it isn't

Replete with amenities. There’s no gym or spa.

What we think

One of the Ferragamo family’s portfolio of hotels, the Lungarno boasts a prime location near the Ponte Vecchio, right along the Arno River (literally—room balconies overhang the water). With elegant cornicing and classical framing, the 68-room hotel is one of the river’s most elegant options. A stylish rework by designer Michele Bonan has accentuated the proximity to the water, with deep blues and whites echoing the outside flow. Enhancing the calm yet sleek interior are 400 pieces of 20th-century Italian art from the family’s collection (plus a smattering of Picasso and Cocteau). Both the Picteau Bar and the Borgo San Jacopo restaurant have terraces on the Arno; should the romantic location overwhelm you (which it will), the hotel can arrange a private balcony dinner for two.

You're here because

Who doesn’t love front-row seats to one of Florence’s most iconic views?

The Moment

Lounging on your private balcony, the Ponte Vecchio seemingly close enough to touch, you listen as the relaxed bustle of late-evening strollers is replaced by the cheerful footsteps of your private waiter. In his wake he leaves one of Chef Peter Brunel’s signatures: yellow potato spaghetti with pesto sauce.
