STUNNING VIEWS
One of the most stunning views of Florence – from one of the city’s most acclaimed restaurants and hotels, the Villa San Michele.
Wander along the wisteria-laden arbour and gaze at the horizon wide view stretching over the grand old town of Florence. Linger over lunch, or an after dinner cocktail with the valley spread out beneath you. Open the curtains of your suite in the early morning and prepare to be swept away by the view. You will be constantly shocked by the beauty of the place, and continually grateful that you put the Belmond Villa San Michele on the itinerary of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Italy.
Especially as the cuisine competes with the scenery for your attention; it is served in an unsurpassed 16th century arched terrace, or in historic inside rooms, and is generally acknowledged to be amongst the finest to be found in Florence. No mean accolade.
