XO Private - The Luxury Travel Collection
The finest online directory for the discerning traveller

The Hotel Lungarno stands on the south bank of the River Arno and overlooks The Uffizi, Palazzo Vecchio, the Duomo and the Florentine campaniles. The hotel features an artistic motif. More than 500 drawings and paintings are displayed throughout, most notable are works by Picasso and Cocteau.

The hotel’s panoramic vista of the river gives it a nautical feel and the lobby’s sofas, chairs, and pillows bring to mind sails and navy uniforms, with their crisp white coverings and dark–blue trim. Rich, dark carpeting, walnut furniture, russet–coloured jar lamps, Chinese blue–and–white porcelain flower pots and tabletop antiques create an elegant and inviting feel in the reception area and bar.

This 73–room hotel attracts an international clientele and all rooms are decorated with exquisite objects, antiques and original paintings with an atmosphere of real elegance.
