Villa Antea Firenze - Tuscany.

Situated in a delightfully quiet district of Florence, yet just ten minutes away from Piazza San Lorenzo and the bustling historic center of the city, Villa Antea is an exclusive residence, once inhabited by the Florentine aristocracy. The property was built in 1903 in the style of an elegant period residence. At Villa Antea original architectural details and faultless interior decoration work together so as to create an ambience where luxury reigns supreme; a perfect example of which being the reception lobby, dominated by an impressive flight of steps in Serena stone and embellished with rare items of antique furniture and period paintings.

Light floods through the large windows on to the highly polished, Palladian-style, marble pavement found in the dining room of Villa Antea. Breakfast is served here, in the dining room, or in the hotel's pretty, flower-filled courtyard. Those wishing to taste some of the dishes for which Florence is famous throughout the world, are able to request the hotel's exclusive catering service and enjoy a traditional Tuscan lunch or dinner, accompanied by a selection of the region's most highly acclaimed wines.

Guests staying at Villa Antea sojourn in beautifully appointed rooms, each of which featuring wonderful parquet floors, luxurious textiles, and extremely spacious, Carrara marble bathrooms. The careful integration of modern facilities ensures that clients have access to both the latest in contemporary technology and the highest levels of comfort.

Villa Antea's romantic courtyard is the ideal place where to partake in a refreshing drink or aperitif or where to simply relax in the shade of the linden trees and enjoy the peace of this truly unique Florentine retreat.
