This Time Tomorrow in Florence
Fresc-o’clock
Laidback Le Cure
Fortune-telling isn’t usually our forte, but This Time Tomorrow in Florence will see you ensconced in an art-filled neoclassical residence, living like a well connected local within strolling distance of the centro storico. You’ll pick your pied-à-terre from eight spacious apartments, each with restored frescoes, fine artwork and a kitchen stocked with Tuscan fare, then RSVP for insider experiences from art tours to wine tastings. At this boutique stay – it turns out – clairvoyance is a cinch…

Our Favourite Rooms
Art connoisseurs will be in clover in any of the apartments – they’re each hung with a selection of pieces from the hotel’s collection. 2PM’s spacious rooftop terrace is a special spot round the clock, from first-thing espresso to city-gazing sundowner.
Spa

Packing Tips
A trusty tote for stuffing with produce at the local market, and an apron to don in the tricked-out kitchen (useful whether you’re baking a fresh batch of cantuccini, or skipping straight to the part where you dunk them in a glass of vin santo).
Also
The hotel’s art collection ranges from an imposing Mannerist masterpiece by Jacob de Backer to a rare Dali lithograph, an atmospheric Antoni Tàpies collage, and Franco Gentilini’s commedia dell’arte characters scattered across the building – Uffizi who?
Children
All ages are welcome. Most residences, kitted out with full kitchens, sleep at least four people, and guided experiences can be devised specifically with Little Smiths in mind.

Food & Drink
Hotel Restaurant
There’s no restaurant at This Time Tomorrow in Florence, but you’ll arrive to a welcome basket of farm-to-table Tuscan goodies in your residence’s fully equipped kitchen, which you can top up with trips to nearby vibrant markets. Plus, your local guide Eric can arrange all sorts of culinary experiences. In short, you're unlikely to go hungry.
Planes
Florence Airport is a 20-minute drive away. The hotel can arrange transfers on request (prices vary depending on the type of car).
Trains
Coast into Florence’s Santa Maria Novella on high-speed services from Italian cities including Rome, Milan, Venice, Turin and Naples. From the station, it’s a 10-minute drive to the hotel – transfers can be arranged on request for €45 each way.
Automobiles
Florence’s centro storico is best seen by leisurely stroll, and the hotel has good public transport links. There’s no private parking at the hotel, but if you bring a car, you’ll find a large covered public car park a three-minute walk away.
Worth Getting Out of Bed For
The hotel’s local guide can help curate an itinerary of insider experiences. Options include tastings at chianti vineyards, a wine-paired dinner in a 15th-century palazzo, and guided art tours delving into the city’s hidden history. If you’ve caught the fine-art bug, you might meet a sculptor in his private Florentine studio, chatting over an espresso before setting out with him on a walking tour, or browse restored masterpieces at Bruno Balzano’s treasure-filled antiques shop. Rise early for a daybreak hot-air balloon trip, and you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of Florence, Siena and the Tuscan hills as the sun emerges over them.
For setting out solo, a good bet is a stroll down Via San Gallo, stopping at every gelateria and gallery that takes your fancy; the Crumb Gallery is a particular gem, showcasing work from emerging female artists. And Giardino dell’Orticoltura is a bijou botanical garden with a fanciful 19th-century glasshouse that’s only a short wander from your hotel.
