Lungarno Suites
C. Italy: Tuscany: Florence
Briefly known as the Gallery Riverside Apartments, the Lungarno Suites are yet another creation of the talented Ferragamo Group. Perfect for long stay guests, families or couples traveling together, or even business travelers, this property offers the service of a hotel in the style of a beautifully appointed apartment. Accommodations are situated in a grand palazzo fronting on the Arno River, just steps from the Ponte Vecchio. The suites include studios, one bedroom and two bedroom accommodations. All are done in the sleek, uncluttered style of the Gallery, Hotel Art. Each unit has satellite television, CD player, internet plug, voicemail, and mini bar. The Pullman style kitchens have refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher, espresso/cappuccino coffee machine, and cooking/eating utensils. Part of the complimentary welcome tray a guest receives upon arrival is pasta, olive oil, salt, tomato sauce and, of course, instructions on how to prepare a pasta dish! Upon request by a guest, groceries can be ordered and delivered to the guest's suite. Amenities include 24-hour reception desk, concierge, daily maid service, laundry service and continental breakfast served in the suite. Suites can be rented on a daily or weekly basis. A dining option worth considering is the Fusion Bar at the Gallery, Hotel Art (another Ferragamo property), located just a few steps from the Lungarno Suites.
