Hotel Accademia - A 14th-century palazzo in central Florence with artistic heritage and modern amenities
Located in a renovated 14th-century palazzo, this 3-star Florence hotel occupies the former residence of Bernardo Cennini, one of the sculptors who created the Baptistery of San Giovanni's doors. The property sits 164.0 ft from the cathedral and features original period stained-glass windows alongside Carrara marble floors. All rooms come equipped with air conditioning, satellite TV, safes, private bathrooms with hairdryers, and minibars. The hotel maintains a reading room, internet point, and outdoor garden with bar service. A buffet breakfast is served daily in a room featuring an antique pietra serena fireplace. Hotel Accademia stands 1968.5 ft from Santa Maria Novella Station and within walking distance to major attractions - the Uffizi Gallery is 15 minutes away, while the Accademia Gallery takes 9 minutes to reach. The property sits one minute from Chiesa di San Lorenzo and 5 minutes from the Duomo complex.

“Hotel Accademia occupies a 14th-century palace, giving it an immediate atmospheric appeal enhanced by original stained-glass. With only twenty rooms, the Accademia offers a more intimate experience, centrally situated for exploring Florence's main attractions like the Duomo and the Uffizi Gallery. Its historic charm, combined with a quiet reading room and garden, sets it apart.”
