Savoy Hotel, Florence





























Images Hotel Savoy

After the ultra modern surrounds & remoteness of Rahimoana last weekend, I think a total change of pace is needed. I really crave a weekend of shopping & what better place to do this than gorgeous Firenze! The Hotel Savoy offers luxury & style in the heart of Florence. This is part of the luxurious Rocco Forte Collection & has been styled by the renown designer Olga Polizzi.

Located on the Piazza Repubblica, the hotel is close to the Duomo, the Uffizi Gallery & the Ponte Vecchio. With the days still warm & the nights balmy, lets shop all day in Florence's wonderful fashion houses & boutiques & dine outdoors in the evening watching the world go by!
