Hotel Restaurant

In winter (October to April), Da Giacomo al Salviatino is set in the Sala Alfresco, a formal space, with just a cluster of candlelit tables and impressive portraits. In summer (April to mid-October), guests dine on the terrace – and at night, count the stars as they do so. The cuisine celebrates classic Italian cooking, with a particular focus on fresh seafood. Crowd-pleasers include the catch of the day prepared alongside seasonal ingredients from the hotel's garden. Picks from the wine cellar are reliably excellent, and light snacks are served poolside too.

Hotel Bar

The Rosa Bar is a long, smart space on the ground floor, manned by barkeeps as beautiful as the surroundings. Patio doors lead out on to the balustraded balcony, which has wonderful vistas. The petite Pool Bar is open from April to September and serves light snacks and small plates alongside refreshing juices, cocktails and wines.

You can eat at any time, wherever you wish to dine. Rosa Bar is open from noon till midnight.

Room Service

Worth Getting Out of Bed For

Spa Il Salviatino is worth dedicating a few hours of your life to, for its wonderful array of bespoke treatments. Try the skin-softening, sense-soothing 'Tuscany Pleaseure' wine-themed treatment package, which includes a blissful Italian-inspired aromatherapy massage, wine-must body wrap and exfoliating facial.

Ask the hotel to organise a private painting class, a cookery lesson, wine tasting or a session with a personal trainer. Il Salviatino can also arrange one-off experiences for guests, such as a visit to one of Florence’s skilled craftsmen to have shoes or a shirt made to measure. Explore the city’s boutiques, bars and galleries, and pick from the wealth of sightseeing options – admire the Duomo, visit the Campanile, trawl through the Uffizi’s collections and wander along the Ponte Vecchio. Walk through the olive groves and vineyards that lead to Fiesole and stop for a picnic.
