Florence isn’t only a city for shopping and museums, the city centre is full of restaurants and trendy bars and cafés, testimony to the social life of Florentine artists and writers. For theatre and music lovers Florence offers a rich list of theatre, ballet, concerts and opera.
The Hotel Fenice Palace Florence is located in the heart of the historical centre, Via de’ Martelli, in a newly restored former Florentine noble’s residence just a stone’s throw from the Duomo and Giotto’s Tower and a few steps from the magnificent treasure of the Uffizi Gallery. A few minutes walk and you will be in Piazza della Signoria, Ponte Vecchio, the Medici Chapels and the market of San Lorenzo.
Only 5 minutes’ walk from the Hotel Fenice Palace Florence is Ponte Vecchio, Florence’s oldest bridge, built in 1345, where you can find the ancient goldsmiths’ workshops which made Florence famous all over the world - and were you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Arno river.
