Historic Tower Suites

Donati Luxury Tower Suites occupy a restored 12th-century medieval tower in Florence, with original stone walls preserved throughout. Each suite includes oak parquet floors, rosewood kitchenettes with induction cooktops, and heated marble bathrooms (maintained at 20°C). Select suites have private spas with steam rooms, saunas, or rooftop Jacuzzis overlooking Giotto's Bell Tower and Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral. Beds feature Ambassador 800 mattresses with Fr Plus Chiardiluna toppers.

Central Florence Location

The tower is on Via del Corso, 300 meters from Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral. Nearby landmarks include Piazza della Signoria (200 meters), Uffizi Gallery (300 meters), and Ponte Vecchio (500 meters). Florence Santa Maria Novella train station is a 15-minute walk; Peretola Airport is 10 km away. Cars can park at Garage Sant'Orsola (€40-€50/day) or in ZTL-free lots like Lungarno Zecca Vecchia.

In-Suite Tech & Dining

Suites feature Samsung Smart IPTVs with device mirroring, Nespresso machines, and fiber-optic Wi-Fi. Personal chefs or bartenders can prepare meals in-room or on the rooftop terrace. Nearby restaurants include Trattoria Mario (for Florentine steak) and Procacci (truffle panini), both under 5 minutes' walk.

Exclusive Guest Services

The hotel provides transfers from Santa Maria Novella Station or Peretola Airport via luxury limousine. Additional services include multilingual babysitters, personal shoppers for Florentine crafts, and private guided tours. Business groups can book the 69 sqm Lorenzo il Magnifico suite (April-September) for meetings.

Seasonal Rooftop Access

From April to September, guests use the tower's rooftop terrace with heated tubs and panoramic city views. Private dinners can be arranged with advance notice.

“Donati Luxury Tower Suites occupies an enviable position in Florence, near the Duomo. The suites themselves strike a balance between modern luxury and respect for the building's history as a medieval tower. While not a full-service hotel, the location and suite design make it a memorable base for exploring the city.”
