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

The exclusive hotel Villa La Vedetta, situated beside Piazzale Michelangelo, with a unique and sublime view of Florence was once a patrician villa. The surrounding Italian garden and beautiful park that slopes toward the Arno River provide a perfect setting for a long romantic walk.

Each room has a different colour, which is repeated in the fine marble in the bathroom and patinated walls, creating a very soft and elegant environment. All spacious and luxurious rooms feature a bathroom with Jacuzzi and boast glorious views over Florence or the hotel’s private garden. The hotel offers complimentary wi–fi internet access, internet point and shuttle service.

The villa provides a glamorous and sophisticated ambience, with lounge bar, gourmet restaurant awarded by the Michelin Guide just a few months after its opening, American bar, pool bar and fitness corner, as well as a sauna. The swimming pool, looking out over Florence, features water plants and an unusually large Jacuzzi for 20 persons. Guests can enjoy a magical moment of relaxation and admire the panorama from the magnificent terrace.
