4-star historic hotel with rooftop views of Florence Cathedral

Location & Setting

Grand Hotel Cavour sits inside a 13th-century palace, 2 minutes on foot from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. The Uffizi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio are both less than 600 meters away. Guests walk out the door to Piazza della Signoria and a dense network of restaurants and shops.

Rooms & Suites

Suites like Suite Beatrice offer two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and independent AC controls in each room. Several rooms provide views of Duomo towers and palazzi. Family suites come with extra space for four guests and daily housekeeping restocks bottled water.

Dining & Entertainment

The Divina Terrazza rooftop bar serves cocktails with a 360-degree view of Florence, including the Duomo and Palazzo Vecchio. Breakfast is served in a room designed by artist Galileo Chini, with frescoed walls and stained-glass windows. The Secret Bar, hidden in an ancient brick-arched basement, follows a Prohibition-era theme for small-group gatherings.

Wellness & Services

The hotel operates a mini spa that includes a Turkish bath and a fitness center. Concierge staff provide expert local dining recommendations and can book tables at nearby restaurants. Valet parking and a shuttle service are available, with the hotel arranging pickup and delivery of rental cars from a private garage outside the ZTL zone.

Family & Business

Babysitting and child services are offered on request, and family suites provide separate sleeping areas. The hotel houses meeting and banquet facilities for up to 50 attendees, plus a business center with fax and photocopying. Three lifts reduce waiting times, and soundproofed rooms on higher floors minimize street noise.

great location walk-in shower excellent breakfast street noise hard mattress gaudy decor
The hotel has an excellent location. It made it easy to walk to many attractions. the breakfast was also great. i especially enjoyed the american walk-in shower in my room.
My room was quite noisy since it faced the street. The soundproofing needs improvement. i heard everything outside. the mattress was hard. it was almost unbearable. The decor was also old and gaudy.

central location lovely view breakfast choice convenient sightseeing
the rooftop terrace offered lovely views, especially at night. breakfast was great with so many choice. i liked that a later check-out time was standard. the location was convenient.
the room doors was solid making it impossible to close them quietly if someone entered or left their room in the middle of the night.
