Hotel Cestelli is situated in a 12th century palace, which was the home of Bishop Altoviti and, later during the 16th century, housed the studio of a relative of Lorenzo il Magnifico, Cosimo II dei Medici. His illustrious presence is, in fact, still today commemorated with a bust on the facade of the building. The hotel is located in one of the most fascinating areas of the historical centre of Florence, off Via de' Tornabuoni and just steps away from Ponte Vecchio, within easy walking distance of all the major attractions, boutiques, cafes, and artisan workshops. Hotel Cestelli is a rare corner in the heart of Florence.
