Anglo American Hotel Florence Curio Collection - Florence

Set just beyond the bustling, scenic streets with headline sights, the Anglo American Hotel Florence, Curio Collection By Hilton is a refined base for exploring Florence. Capturing the romance of historic Florence through an elegant lens, this hotel boasts chic interiors with a playful art deco twist and a tranquil internal courtyard for laid-back aperitifs. Dine at the hotel’s all-day buffet bistro, savour a glass at the wine bar or get your fitness fix in the fully equipped gym. This hotel is well suited to couples or solo travellers seeking a quietly polished retreat offering all the essentials.

Tucked into a quiet pocket of central Florence, the hotel promises a peaceful base. Set just a few streets back from the Arno River, the city’s sights within comfortable walking distance. You’re around one mile from the Duomo complex, where Brunelleschi's iconic dome, the Baptistery of San Giovanni and Giotto’s Bell Tower showcase the grandeur of Renaissance Florence – best enjoyed in the mornings or later in the evenings to avoid the crowds. Anchored by the Palazzo Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria, in the city’s historic heart, lies just under two miles away. Meanwhile, the Uffizi Galleries sit around a mile and a half from the hotel, making it easy to dip into some world-class art. The Opera del Duomo Museum, home to works by Michelangelo and Donatello, is about the same distance away. Peretola Airport is around five miles from the hotel, with Pisa International Airport around 50 miles further afield.

Rooms lean into a soft, neutral palette of whites and dove greys, lifted with gentle pops of blue and coral. Plush velveteen furnishings and art deco-inspired geometric details add depth and a playful edge, too. Connecting rooms are available on request for families or groups, although these come at a supplement. While certain rooms can feel snug or pick up a little street noise, the overall feel is clean, comfortable and thoughtfully put together. Upgrade to a Deluxe Room or Junior Suite for extra space to stretch.
