Florence’s Cultural Gems
The art of Florence is inescapable; especially if you stay in the Four Seasons, where every room is a masterpiece, featuring Renaissance-style ceilings, artefacts and period sculptures.
Your eyes are drawn inevitably from the complexity of the marble floors, upwards by towering columns to the ceiling above you. Masterly depictions of Adam and Eve, archangels and cherubs create a canopy of Renaissance religious stories, breath-taking in its execution. But no, you are not visiting a Florentine cathedral, or one of the city’s grand palaces. You are in the Four Seasons, Florence.
The architecture alone – the lounge with its vaulted ceilings and glittering chandeliers, the bedrooms with their painted ceilings and stunning views – make the Four Seasons a grand place to stay on your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Italy. And that’s without counting its setting, offering easy access to Florence’s most important sights, and its walled botanical gardens adjoining a 15th century palazzo.
