Il Desco Bistrot serves organic Tuscan cuisine using produce from the hotel's certified organic farm in Reggello. The menu includes gluten-free and vegetarian options, with dishes prepared using extra virgin olive oil, vegetables, and fruits from their property. Guests can purchase organic products including olive oil during their stay. The restaurant offers artisanal wines from local Tuscan producers and craft beers from Valle del Mugello.
Art-Filled Common Spaces
The hotel displays a private collection of contemporary and antique artworks throughout the property. Guests have access to cultural events and temporary art exhibitions organized on-site. The breakfast room features updated lighting and air conditioning systems renovated in 2021.
Central Florence Location
Located at Via Cavour 29, the hotel is 300 meters from the Accademia Gallery (home to Michelangelo's David) and 500 meters from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. It is 1 km from Florence Santa Maria Novella train station and 10 km from Peretola Airport. The property sits within Florence's Limited Traffic Zone; guests must provide license plate numbers to avoid fines. Valet parking is available at a partner garage nearby.
Family-Run Hospitality Services
The family-owned hotel offers concierge services for Florence itineraries and running route advice from manager Antonella. Staff provides license plate registration for ZTL compliance and arranges valet parking. The front desk can organize purchases of organic farm products and provide information about seasonal events including the Florence Marathon and Christmas markets.
“Ideally situated a short walk from both the train station and the Duomo, this property impressed me with its surprisingly curated art program. The modern art displayed throughout provides an engaging contrast to the building's authentic Florentine character, and the breakfast, particularly the Italian selections, is a highlight. A comfortable and well-located base for exploring Florence, with unexpected artistic and culinary appeal.”
