Donatello Hotel, Florence

The great period doorway of the three-star Hotel Donatello opens out onto the large garden of Piazza Independenza. The antique 19th-century building, former residence of an eminent and wealthy Florentine family, has been renovated in stone, faceted colored marbles, traditional terra cotta tiles and Murano glass, lending the elegant structure a refined air and attesting to the great history of Florence, cradle of the Renaissance.
