Regency Hotel

Once upon a time when the city of Florence was the Italian Capital, Hotel Regency served as a retreat to high government officials and ministers of the state. Today, the nineteenth century villa located in the heart of Florence is a five star property belonging to the prestigious chain of The Leading Hotels of the World. Nevertheless, time is irrelevant as at Hotel Regency it seems to have been virtually stopped. The hotel overlooks pristine Piazza D'Azeglio, is framed by monasteries, ancient cloisters, famous museums and even more impressive, maintains the private villa-like air about it, ensuring travelers a most memorable unique experience.

In the spirit of a true European boutique hotel, the Regency turns back time to a day when ladies and gentlemen traveled in their Sunday best and vintage hospitality was the standard. While more recent renovations have renewed its beauty, the Florentine villa qualities and philosophy remain unchanged.
