Descriptions:
Only steps from the Santa Maria Novella train station, Hotel Corona d'Italia
boasts a privileged position in the heart of the San Lorenzo district,
which for centuries has been the crossroads of the commercial and artistic
cultures in Florence. Overlooking the via dell'Ariento, the hotel is the
ideal place to stay for those interested in the true traditions of Tuscan
cuisine. In fact, along the pedestrian street across from the Mercato Centrale
(Central Market), is a host of grocers, butchers, fishmongers and florists.
In this area you can find some of the most well-stocked shops in Florence
where even take-out food is available, including specialties such as roast
pork, lampredotto (boiled beef intestines) and tripe.
A few steps from the hotel is the San Lorenzo monument, official church
and burial place of the Medici family, whose creators include Michelangelo,
Brunelleschi, Donatello and others.
A short walk from the hotel takes you to the magnificent Duomo with
the Giotto's Bell Tower and the Battistero (Baptistery), where you can
admire the marvellous frescoes of the Cappella dei Magi in the Palazzo
Medici Ricciardi.
The hotel is easily accessible by car, and a special area is reserved
for arrivals and baggage unloading. Guests can also park their cars in
associated parking lots.
Laid out over three floors, Hotel Corona d'Italia is housed
in an nineteenth-century palace with clean and pleasing lines. Its interior,
