Hotel Albani
C. Italy: Tuscany: Florence
Located on Via Fiume near Piazza San Lorenzo and the Duomo, the Hotel Albani was created in a 19th century palazzo. It combines traditional Italian elegance with state of the art facilities. The hotel is owned by the same family that owns the five-star Hotel Majestic in Rome. No expense was spared in the décor. The comfortable rooms feature marble bathrooms, walls upholstered in bright silk fabrics, and beautiful wood cabinetry which has been used throughout the rooms. Windows have insulated glass making the rooms very quiet. In 1998, the hotel completed its beautifully appointed conference center, located in a separate building behind and to the right of the main hotel. It is the perfect place for a banquet, meeting, or reception. The new guestrooms - which are somewhat larger than the rooms in the main hotel - created above the conference center include luxurious suites and junior suites. The hotel also has a restaurant located just beneath the lobby, and an American bar. The staff is professional and accommodating and the hotel is very well maintained. JDB has a special rate at the Albani making it a wonderful option for clients seeking a deluxe hotel experience at less than deluxe rates.

NOTE: There is no garage at the hotel but a nearby garage is used for guest parking.
