Hotel Calimala
Exquisite accommodation and a panoramic rooftop terrace make Hotel Calimala a popular choice when visiting Florence.
Housed within a 16th-century property, this hotel boasts a striking facade along Via Calimala. The grandeur continues inside with recently renovated rooms and suites for a contemporary edge.
What sets this hotel apart is its distinct modern deco style. Rather than following the building’s historic design, this hotel boasts an ‘out of the box’ concept. Innovative interiors, bold colors, and contemporary art combine to create a trendy hotel in the heart of the city.
Of course, the building still manages to hold onto its 16th-century heritage with the use of authentic materials like Tuscan marble. High ceilings, exposed stone, and multi-colored terrazzo flooring enhance the rooms’ historic charm.
When it comes to the accommodation, every detail goes into creating a peaceful ambiance where you can kick back in style. The Superior Rooms offer a trendy vibe with contemporary artwork, city views, and a statement mirror.
Deluxe Rooms offer a little more space, while the Premium Balcony Room promises a luxurious stay overlooking the city’s picture-perfect streets and the Loggia del Mercato Nuovo.
If you’re in need of a bit to eat, the Angel Roofbar & Dining is a great place to rest your feet and gaze out across the city with a cocktail in hand.
Enjoy 360-degree views as you tuck into the authentic flavors of the Mediterranean. Aperitifs start at 5 p.m., followed by dinner at 6:30 p.m. Dinner is diverse, with shrimp ravioli, white cabbage steak for vegetarians, and octopus skewers for seafood lovers.
You’ll also find a secret garden and a plunge pool on the rooftop for the ultimate escape. If that’s not enough, in-room massages are available on request – the perfect way to treat a loved one.
Start your day with a daily breakfast complete with a selection of sweet treats, cold cuts, eggs, freshly made bread, and more. Wash it all down with a barista-style coffee or a warm cup of tea.
If you want to stay active, head to the gym, complete with everything you need to keep up with your daily fitness regime. Other facilities include valet parking and a chic rooftop bar with a selection of cocktails and Italian wine.
