Enjoy the real romantic weekend in Florence at Golden Tower Hotel


Here in Italy we are lucky enough to have plenty of beautiful women and plenty of beautiful places to take them. Hoping that they fall in love with us, and not just with the places. It’s easy, after all: all that’s needed are a woman, and a place. So how about a nice romantic weekend in Florence?

It might be playing things dirty. Who could resist you in such a landscape? It’s like being a firefly that shines brighter just because it’s reflecting from a nearby lamppost. A weekend in Florence will certainly have the suggestive charm that few other destinations can manage. Imagine, for example, the marvel of taking her (or him) to the Forte di Belvedere to enjoy the view of the Arno flowing through the heart of the city, with the profile of the Duomo standing out imposingly, that great dome that drove Brunelleschi mad - and the rest of the world as well.

It’s even better if you manage to find the right hotel in Florence that will help keep up with the fairy tale adventure you have in mind, or even improve it.
If you really want to play it safe, Hotel Golden Tower can truly make you live your dreams as reality. This is the tower the Strozzi family had built (and where they lived), a family that had Filippo the Younger as its main representative in fame and authority, and that typified the city’s Renaissance.

When you reach Hotel Golden Tower you can immediately leave your car to our staff, who will collect it and take care of it until the moment of your departure. This way, you will have nothing to worry about during your stay and will only need to think about how lucky you are to be here, just a few steps away from the great marvels of Florence.

Most of all - if you manage to carve some time out for yourselves, with so many things to do and see - you can walk towards Palazzo Pitti, which is about 700 metres away from Hotel Golden Tower, and, just behind the palace, go to the Boboli Gardens. These gardens are extremely large, and their construction was inspired by a variety of styles and artistic and cultural ideas. Essentially, they are in an Italian style but with rather heterogeneous influences.

Seeing Florence from this enchanted garden, full of statues, staircases, caves and fountains, is certainly an unique emotion. There’s no denying it: a true romantic weekend.
