A New Florentine Renaissance

A table piled with food awaits guests on a rustic balustraded terrace overlooking sunny Florence and Tuscan hills beyond.

Artistry, curiosity and a devotion to beauty tie this hotel to the city’s layered past and inspiring present.

Perched in the lush hills above Florence overlooking the Arno Valley, Villa San Michele stands as a masterpiece of Tuscan heritage that is tied to the soul of the city itself.

Beginning life as a monastery in the 15th century, the hotel’s facade is attributed to the School of Michelangelo, while the surroundings hills were the testing grounds for Leonardo da Vinci’s flying machines. The terraced gardens, originally tended to by monks, have seen the centuries shift through the seasons.
