The St. Regis Florence is one of the city's grandest hotels — a Renaissance palace on the banks of the Arno, on the elegant Piazza Ognissanti, restored with opulent interiors inspired by Florentine art and the Medici. It offers lavish rooms and suites (the prized ones overlooking the river), the brand's signature butler service, refined dining, and a sense of palatial occasion. Just steps from the Ponte Vecchio, the Uffizi, and the designer shopping of Via de' Tornabuoni, it's a supremely luxurious and central riverside base.
The St. Regis Florence occupies a historic palace — its origins traced to a building attributed to the Renaissance architect Brunelleschi — on the Piazza Ognissanti, a graceful square fronting the Arno on the north bank, just west of the city's core. A grand restoration created sumptuous interiors that draw on Florentine artistic traditions, the Renaissance, and Medici splendor, with frescoes, rich fabrics, and antiques creating a palatial atmosphere.
The rooms and suites are lavish and individually styled; the most coveted look out over the river. As a St. Regis, it offers the brand's hallmark bespoke butler service, available around the clock, along with a refined restaurant and bar (the latter a fashionable spot), and elegant lounges. The overall experience is one of old-world grandeur paired with full modern luxury and highly personal service.
The riverside location is both elegant and central: the Ponte Vecchio is a short stroll along the Arno, the Uffizi and Piazza della Signoria are close, and the luxury boutiques of Via de' Tornabuoni are nearby. The sister property, The Westin Excelsior, sits across the same square. The St. Regis suits travelers seeking the height of grand, palatial luxury, personal service, and a beautiful riverside setting in the center of Florence.
