Hotel Lungarno, Florence
More photosExpert reviews
“You book this hotel for the location—it’s probably the best in the city—but you leave feeling like you’ve discovered a hidden gem, one where the typical Florence tourists aren’t as likely to be found and where you can escape the hectic life of the city.”
Featured in CN Traveler’s 2018 Hot List
“Just steps from Florence’s famous Ponte Vecchio bridge sits Hotel Lungarno, the first of the Ferragamo family’s Lungarno Collection, a series of luxury hotels in Florence and Rome all with unique visions and identities. Hotel Lungarno is the most classic of the bunch, attracting honeymooners and Italians alike.”
“The Lungarno is the flagship hotel of Florentine fashion heir Leonardo Ferragamo’s Lungarno Collection and the most traditional of the group. It offers an unbeatable location just steps from the Ponte Vecchio, five-star service, magnificent river views, and gourmet dining.”

This is the hotel to stay at for a true boutique luxurious experience of Florence. Excellent service, quiet residential
The location was perfect, hotel absolutely gorgeous and there was a luxurious and intimate romanticism about the atmosphere of the whole place that made our trip so memorable. The hotel had wonderful restaurant recommendations which included Il Parione that we dined at twice we loved it so much.

one of the best hotels in Florence -Amazing breakfast area and views of the river
location and extremely helpful and kind staff

Lovely hotel, helpful staff - would definitely recommend to others and stay again ourselves!
The hotel stay was a wondering experience. We stayed in the family room which was perfect for 2 adults and 2 children. The room was clean, nicely sized and the staff was extremely helpful. The location of the hotel was amazing - right on the river and close to all the main attractions of Florence without being overly touristy.
The only thing missing was a fitness centre which would have made the stay perfect.

I have a new favorite hotel. I would return to Florence just to stay here again.
The location was absolutely perfect. The room blew me away. The breakfast made me love breakfast. The staff were outrageously kind and accommodating. I arrived tired and hours before check-in. They readied my room in an hour while offering me coffee and pastries. While I am a very low maintenance traveller, I overheard many a conversation involving guests who needed accommodating and the hotel seemed to go above and beyond. Let me also say this: When I walked into my room I thought: Florence has some tough competition. I didn't want to leave.
Honestly, a friend and tough critic recommended this hotel. He prefaced it with: I am never impressed by hotels. It was amazing in every way and I cannot wait to return.
