Owned by the Ferragamo family, Hotel Lungarno is perched along the south bank of the River Arno, just a stone's throw from the Duomo, the Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery. After a major refurbishment in 2017, the guestrooms are utterly delightful, all of them with fine antique furnishings, original paintings from the hotel's collection and soothing colors. Consider Junior Suite Torre, in the medieval tower, or Suite Picasso, where, from a private balcony overlooking the city and the river, you'll enjoy extraordinary views. Enjoy remarkable views at Michelin-star restaurant Borgo San Jacopo, too, with the superb Italian cuisine.
