Plaza Hotel Lucchesi ★★★★
In the heart of Florence on the right bank of the River Arno, Plaza Hotel Lucchesi is the ideal starting point for visiting the city of the Renaissance. A big hit at the hotel is Empireo, the rooftop American bar with a swimming pool, and a panoramic view of the city, the river and the surrounding hills. Comfortable and quiet, the beautifully appointed rooms have views of the river, the Santa Croce Basilica or the city center. The restaurants’ menus reflect ancient traditions adapted to modern times. The impressive lobby bar is known for its extensive menu of wines and cocktails. Within a 10-minute walk are the Ponte Vecchio, the Uffizi Gallery and the Duomo.
