The Best Romantic Honeymoon Hotels in Florence

1. Ville Sull’Arno

Luxury • Campo di Marte, east of Santa Croce
Romantic Florence hotel on Arno River

This swoon-worthy boutique resort features a garden pool and hot tub, a full-service spa, and romantic suites spread out over three Renaissance villas overlooking the Arno River. Four junior suites in the elegant, Florentine style in La Villa offer indoor or outdoor whirlpools on rooftop terraces, while contemporary suites in the Spa Villa include indoor Jacuzzis and steam showers. The grounds include a pool, glass-fronted whirlpool, and a hammock in a private garden setting, while the spa offers a second pool and hot tub, an ice waterfall, sauna, and emotional showers. The hotel offers several packages exclusively for couples that include champagne and strawberries, spa treatments, candlelit dinners, and more.

2. Four Seasons

Luxury • Santissima Annunziata
Romantic Florence hotel with pool
Hotel phone: +39 055 26261
A lavish hotel housed in two Renaissance buildings, featuring a full-service spa, pool, and Jacuzzi surrounded by eleven acres of private gardens. Suites have a more of a romantic ambiance than the rooms, though all come with deep soaking tubs, and many with balconies. Their unique Garden Suite is the only suite in Florence with its own private plunge pool, which sits tucked away in a lush garden, keeping its guests secluded from the rest of the hotel. With a focus on experiences, their signature offers include a hot air balloon ride from their gardens to Chianti and a private wine academy with lessons in Tuscan reds. Memorable dining options include not only a posh Italian restaurant and sumptuous breakfast spread, but also their Michelin-starred Picnic in the Park and an exclusive dinner on the Ponte Vecchio. Signature offerings include a hot air balloon ride that begins in their garden and ends in Chianti and a private wine academy with lessons and tastings.

3. Palazzo Magnani Feroni

Luxury • Santo Spirito
Romantic Florence palace hotel
Hotel phone: +39 055 239 9544
Housed in a 16th-century palace, this atmospheric, boutique hotel offers an all-suite layout and specializes in romantic occasions: weddings, honeymoons, and babymoons (babymoon package includes ensuite pre-natal massage). Suites are all spacious, though the most romantic one is the smallest: this Junior Suite is covered entirely with original 18th-century frescoes and is the only one with its own private courtyard. Panoramic views of Florence and the Oltrarno are available year-round from their Rooftop Terrace, which features bar service in the spring and summer months from just before sunset until midnight. In-room massage can be arranged, as can private dinners on the Roof Terrace or in the suites. The Palazzo sits right on trendy Borgo San Frediano, near the city’s best nightlife, dining, traditional artisan workshops, and just a short walk to all of the cultural and historical attractions of the City Center.

4. Brunelleschi

Luxury • City Center
Florence romantic tower suite
Hotel phone: +39 055 27370
This breathtaking boutique hotel seems straight out of a romance novel, housed in a sixth-century Byzantine tower attached to a medieval church. Its two sexiest rooms are the Pool Suite and the Tower Suite. The Pool Suite features an indoor hydrotherapy tub and rooftop terrace with a second Jacuzzi, surrounded by climbing vines and flowers, with a direct view of the Duomo. The two-floor Tower Suite is housed inside the tower with an indoor whirlpool, a Duomo view, and its ancient stone walls exposed within its rounded walls. Several other suites boast indoor Jacuzzi tubs, while the Bargello Suite adds a multisensory shower. Suite guests receive extra perks, including round trip airport transportation, daily fruits and chocolates, a welcome bottle of champagne, and exclusive dining privileges in their St Elisabetta Ristorante, among other amenities. Other highlights include the daily aperitivo in the Tower Bar and the two complimentary breakfast buffets.

5. Art Hotel Villa Agape

Luxury • Piazzale Michelangelo
Romantic hotel in Florence hills
Hotel phone: +39 055 220044
An intimate hotel nestled in the rolling hills overlooking Florence, just north of the wine region Chianti Colli Fiorentina and near the scenic lookout at Piazzale Michelangelo. Surrounded by seven acres of olive groves and Renaissance gardens (popular for weddings), this elegant, understated property feels remote, though the City Center is just a thirty-minute walk away. The most romantic rooms and suites are in the main villa, with traditional Florentine features, such as terra cotta floors and local, vintage décor. Perks include a delicious daily breakfast, unlimited garden access, and free tapas during happy hour. Be sure to visit the terrace overlooking the garden, hills, and city for stunning sunset views.

6. Loggiato dei Serviti

Mid-range • Santissima Annunziata
Florence honeymoon hotel
Hotel phone: +39 055 289592
Formerly the guest quarters of a 16th-century monastery, this hotel features romantic rooms and suites, all decorated in period antiques, velvet, and brocade fabrics many with canopy beds, original frescoes, ornamental ceilings, and balconies. A popular honeymoon hotel, they offer special packages for celebrating couples with complimentary sparkling wine and upgraded rooms and suites. A small cocktail bar is available in the evenings here, and an excellent continental breakfast is included in the room rates. The hotel is perched in a quiet corner of the city, adjacent to Santissima Annunziata Church. Florentine brides traditionally visit this church after their weddings to leave their bridal bouquets at the side altar near the miraculous painting of the Annunciation to ensure a good marriage.

Its top floor restaurant Sesto is one of the most popular in the city, especially for evening aperitivos, cocktails, and sunset views. Exclusive packages for couples add sparkling wine and strawberries on arrival and daily breakfast served to the room.

8. Golden Tower Hotel & Spa

Luxury • Santissima Annunziata
Romantic Florence hotel with spa
