Hotel La Gemma  

In the heart of Florence’s historic centre, a stone’s throw from the Duomo and Piazza della Repubblica. Located at Via dei Cavalieri 6R, you’re minutes from the Uffizi, Ponte Vecchio and Piazza della Signoria — perfect for city-center stays and sightseeing.

Set inside a 19th-century palazzo, this five-star luxury hotel blends contemporary design with Florentine motifs inspired by the Duomo. There are 39 rooms, many with views of the historic streets and some with secluded balconies or private terraces. Interiors favor bold geometric patterns, opulent marble and sumptuous textiles, and the hotel houses a tranquil private spa in the palace cellars.

Relax at the full-service spa and enjoy massages and facials, or unwind at the bar/lounge. Rooms include air-conditioning, minibars, flat-screen TVs, in-room safes and powerful hairdryers. Enjoy complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception and in-room dining — and wake up to glimpses of Florence’s rooftops and cathedral domes.

Fast, complimentary high-speed internet throughout the hotel. Facilities include a conference/meeting hall, 24-hour front desk, luggage storage and an elevator for easy access.

Two onsite restaurants and a bar serve up evening dining and drinks. Luca’s restaurant opens for dinner and reflects the owners’ gastronomic tradition with Tuscan and Florentine flavors. A complimentary continental breakfast is served daily from 7:30 AM to 10:30 AM.
