“Live like an Aristocrat in Florence”

Without a doubt, the nicest place we have ever stayed.

The Magnani Feroni is a converted 15th century (I think!) mansion one street back from the Arno on the Oltrarno-side of Florence. It has about 10 rooms over 3 floors.

The building, which I'm sure was always gorgeous, has survived the conversion well. Every room, from ours, to the lounge, to the breakfast bar is sumptuous, tastefully decorated, and simply amazing!

We wouldn't normally stay in a place like this, but we got an excellent rate on-line. It seems to mostly be frequented by older couples, so we were a bit of an oddity.

I think we got the "worst" room in the Palazzo in that it was on the ground floor and on the road side and sadly, it didn't have any frescos like the other rooms we had seen on the website :-) But it was very spacious, and very nicely decorated with a very nice bathroom.

Criticisms:

- There was road noise in our room and probably the other rooms on that side of the building. How much that bothers you, I don't know. I used ear-plugs one night, but not the others.

- For a hotel that bills itself as luxury, some of the service (in the bar and breakfast) was a bit hit and miss. This did not bother us in the least, in fact it was kind of nice, but if we'd paid the rack rates, I'd have expected more.

“A palace with royal treatment”

Palazzo Magnani Feroni

1/1 found this review helpful

This hotel was the highlight of our recent trip. Words or pictures cannot descibe how beautiful the rooms are. My wife felt like a "princess at her castle". The breakfast room and roof top bar are amazing. The staff was helpful and friendly. The location was great. We would not hesitate to treat ourselves to this palace again.

“More Than Just a Hotel”

Palazzo Magnani Feroni

5 of 5 stars

Oct 10, 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

WOW! What an experience. The PMF is beautiful, elegant, and a unique experience. Staff is wonderful. The rooftop bar is amazing, and if you get to stay in the Smerelda room, you will be surrounded by 200-500 year old frescos on walls and ceiling. If you can afford it and want something different, i.e. not just a fancy, upscale hotel, this is the place.
By the way, the neighborhood is hip and artsy, and somewhat away from the main tourist beat, yet only a few minute walk across the bridge to the major shops and sites.
We will never forget the Palazzo Magnani Feroni.

“What a wonderful hotel”

Palazzo Magnani Feroni

Oct 8, 2007
2/2 found this review helpful

This was our second stay at the hotel - we visit Florence each year and now prebook this hotel 1 year in advance.
Its position is great - just a few minutes' walk from the Ponte Vecchio and all that Florence has to offer.
The staff at this hotel are so friendly and professional, the suites amazing - the antique furniture, huge rooms and the welcoming touches of fruit and gift-wrapped soap are added bonuses.
The roof terrace has wonderful views of the city.
The staff will book restaurants, tours - and even booked our horse and coach for our wedding 3 years ago! Similarly, they welcomed our 1 year old daughter on our return trip.
We unhesitatingly recommend this hotel!

“It’s those special things that make a visit special and, more importantly, memor”

Palazzo Magnani Feroni

Aug 26, 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

Whether it was the impeccable timing of the concierge opening the hotel car park in manic Firenze mid-afternoon traffic or the selection of wonderful hand-picked bath soaps, the Palazzo Magnani Feroni is welcoming and offers an exceptionally high standard of service and comfort.

The hotel, or rather palace, with a rich history that spans centuries, has been open for around 6 years - you’d be forgiven for thinking it had been established significantly longer ago.

From the opulent suites to the billiards room, the roof terrace to the 20 foot ceilings, the palace is steeped in history and style. Not wishing to be left in the past, all the suites have satellite TV and Internet connections in both the bedrooms and the lounges.

The roof terrace bar, with its wonderful views across the city and excellent service leaves one the distinct feeling that asking for a vodka martini, shaken not stirred, would be entirely appropriate.

The worst thing, due to the age of the building and no doubt the close proximity to many of Florence’s great treasures, is the absence of an iron in the rooms – something the historians amongst us would neither miss or, to be honest, use a great deal.
