Hotel Information
Residence Ricasoli offers more than just your ordinary Residence...

Residence Palazzo Ricasoli sits in a prestigious building dating back to the 16th century and faces the historical Via San Gallo.

Polihotels Palazzo Ricasoli offers more than just your ordinary Residence. The staff invites you to discover why. It will surely be an extraordinary experience living in the atmosphere that this Palace, which once belonged to the noble Florentine family, Ricasoli, has created through its "stones" and the harmony of its portico.

Surely an extraordinary experience living in this atmosphere with all services and comfort that a modern first class residence has to offer. The residence found its place in this palace thanks to incredible work and retorations which made it possible to recuperate one of the most important monuments of Florence Renaissance.

Commissioned shortly after 1538 by Bishop Giovan Battista Ricasoli, the palace, opera of architect and humanitarian Cosimo Bartoli, became by the will of Cosimo de' Medici, the monastary of San Miniato al Ceppo, and was once again brought to life, although the ample gardens which once led to the walls of the city, were lost.

Given back to the Florentines, this prestigious work of art was put at the disposal of the citizens of Florence as a place to stay, for its position, only a short walk away from the most significant places where culture and entertainment, for which Florence is famous for, should satisfy the desire to discover and understand this city, one of its kind in the world, in its most authentic aspect.

A different experience therefore allowing one to feel Florentine among the Florentines.

"A great place to stay!"
We loved this hotel!! We had two rooms there..one with three singles for the kids and one with two for my wife and I. Both rooms were very good. The kids even had cooking facilities. It is a little hard to find since it looks like a residence and you have to go strictly by the address. Our only regret was we were only there one night.

"Fine place to stay!"
Stayed at Ricasoli from Oct. 9th to 13th, 2005. We were in the new building, which was spacious, modern, and clean, though the walls were a little thin. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful; breakfast was more than adequate. Tourist sites were not close, but there were eating places nearby. We'd not hesitate to go back there

"Great Hotel"
I stayed here in September 2005 for a week and also in December 2005 for 4 days. I found the staff to be very helpful. I rented an apartment within the hotel for a week for 3 people. There were two spacious double bedrooms and two bathrooms with a seperate sitting room/kitchenette. It was perfectly adequate for us and quite reasonable at 1000 euro for the week. It is in a good location as it is quite near the city yet far enough away to not hear much traffic. It is a straight walk to San Lorenzo-15 minutes and there are some really great restaurants around. Sometimes the hotel offers 3 nights for the price of 2 which is a very good deal. I would definately recommend this hotel.
