Vicolo dell 'Oro 5

Florence, IT

Rating: Mobil 4 Star Rating

A distinguished member of design hotelsTM. Florences first contemporary boutique hotel, Gallery Hotel Art is set on a tiny square just steps from the Ponte Vecchio. Public areas are redefined and transformed into multifunctional spaces envisioned to fulfil all the senses. Revolving art exhibits varying from contemporary art to photography, objects and ethnic culture, emphasize this concept. Art and its shapes accent the walls of the lobby, the pin-striped guest rooms are hung with black-and-white studies of Florentine monuments and light fabrics contrast with the sophistication of the dark wenge furniture. The East melts with the West, blending into Mediterranean at The Fusion Bar Shozan ?? Gallery, where the flavors are of foie gras sushi and ma-cha tiramisu.Rather than a hotel, the Gallery Hotel Art is a place of modern concept, a "project" and "container" of mental suggestions, designed for international travel and open to the public. Through its spaces dedicated to Art, it has become a dynamic engine of cultural exchange. Throughout the year, expositions of contemporary Art take place in the halls and lobby of the Gallery Hotel Art, going beyond its own walls and traditional hotel activities. The modern aspect, the clarity of the lines, the lights, background music, furnishings, colors, materials and the concept of the spaces are all elements chosen to link beauty with well-being.
