Hotel Glance In Florence - A 4-star design hotel with rooftop pool, urban garden, and Renaissance-inspired decor

Located near San Lorenzo Central Market, Hotel Glance In Florence occupies a 1950s building designed by architect Italo Gamberini. The rooftop features a 39-foot pool with wooden deck overlooking Tuscan hills and Florence's terracotta rooftops. All rooms include hypoallergenic wood flooring, soundproofing, luxury linens, and La Via del Tè beverage stations. The Florence hotel's communal spaces encompass a garden patio for informal meetings and breakfast, plus a business lounge with iMac workstations and international press. A daily buffet breakfast serves fresh fruits and vegetable juices. Renaissance art details from Michelangelo's David and other masterpieces adorn the walls throughout Glance, connecting modern design with Florentine heritage. The property sits 1804.5 ft from Santa Maria Novella station and steps from the Palazzo degli Affari convention center and Fortezza da Basso exhibition venue.

Pros

Rooftop terrace pool open May to October with city skyline views

Large outdoor garden patio with aromatic plants and flowers

Business facilities include iMac workstations, printers and international newspapers

Walking distance to major conference venues and exhibition centers

Cons

6 miles distance from Peretola Airport

Pool access limited to summer season (May 15 - October 15)

“The location near the train station makes this a practical choice in a busy city, but the rooftop pool-with its Duomo view- elevates it beyond mere convenience. I found the service genuinely attentive, particularly the staff's care in handling a guest's lost phone situation, reflecting a level of dedication that stands out. It would be a pleasure to stay there.”
