Once is not enough

10.0

As with every stay at this hotel, it was indescribably beautiful, magical, and luxurious. If you want to experience the atmosphere of the best times of the late 19th century, the Florentine Bell Epoque, and encounter the spirit of Empress Eugenie, wife of Napoleon III, you must visit this unique hotel. Magnificent interiors, historic works of art, Murano chandeliers, and extraordinary marble, combined with comfort, tranquility, and privacy. Elegance, positive energy, and exquisite taste. Plus, the most beautiful, sun-drenched, crystal-clear travertine-tiled pool, discreet service, champagne, and cicadas... Nothing more, nothing less.

There's really not much to criticize about this place. Perhaps the breakfasts could be more interesting and rich in local specialties. The in-room mini bar could also offer more interesting alcoholic beverages. Nevertheless, these are minor details that don't detract from the exceptional experience of your stay.
