The Gallery Hotel Art stands out with its contemporary design and artistic ambiance, offering a stylish fusion of art and hospitality. The minimalist decor and modern lines of the interiors are a testament to 21st-century luxury, contrasting with the city’s centuries-old architecture. The lobby serves as both a check-in area and an exhibition space for contemporary art, setting the tone for the hotel’s cultural immersion. Whether unwinding in the library, surrounded by a curated collection of over 400 books, or mingling at the Fusion bar and indulging in sushi and cocktails, the amenities exude sophistication and quality.
The 74 rooms range from the compact but comfortable Gallery Doubles to the spacious Penthouse Suites with their views over Florence’s red-roofed skyline.
