Located in a privileged spot in the heart
of the town, within a comfortable walking distance to
many of the important museum and shopping areas,
the Astoria is a deluxe, elegant hotel. Recently, completely restored in
Florentine style which speaks of Tuscany, it stands in two ancient 15th
century palaces, from one of the richest families of the times.
Warm tones of mahogany,
walnut and rosewood decorate the lounges, with antiques, beautiful
frescoes and the finest furnishings. Red Tuscan tiles floors , lead way
to creamy yellow walls that rise up to vaulted ceilings. A stunning
stone staircase reminds of a glorious, distinguished past. Blue and gold
decorations enhance the
guestrooms, furnished
with beds, armoires and ancient chairs. Modern facilities and
balconies that overlook the old city centre, with its red tile
roofs, guarantee an unforgettable stay.
Tasty Mediterranean and local dishes, are offered at the hotel's
restaurant, which during warm evenings opens to the romantic garden. For
intimate moments, enjoy the rooftop terrace
with fantastic views of the city, from the church of San Lorenzo to Palazzo Vecchio.
