As streets in Florence go, Via Sant' Anonino cannot claim to be the most famous, nor filled with the most dramatic of Florentine architectural marvels, but there is real history behind this street and one which yields discoveries for those who would explore the story of Florence. What the street does contain is the Hotel City, like its locale, unassuming in comparison to the majestic palaces and churches which adorn the Florence cityscape. There are however real benefits to this hotel, and street, not least that all those great sights, those renaissance masterpieces are but a short walk away, and with genuine comforts and amenities awaiting on return..

Via Sant' Anonino is a street noted for its number of tabernacle shrines, a feature so typical of Florence and there are dedications too for renaissance luminaries, with the street featuring in Machiavelli's 'The Mandrake', and a long inscription for Galileo by his student Vincenzo Viviani. What these features show is that the Via Sant' Anonino is the very heart of Florence in both geography and cultural history. A great location then for a city hotel, perfectly placed for guests to step outside and step back in time to the golden age of the renaissance.

Take a short stroll the 150m to Santa Maria Novella square, home of the famous church after which the square is named and also the city's main train station. The city cathedral with its landmark Duomo is also a short walk away as is the Uffizi Gallery, the Ponte Vechhio, and across the bridge, the Palazzo Pitti and Boboli Gardens beyond. This is Florence to the great numbers of visitors who come each year to enjoy it, and certainly so for the guests at Hotel City, a Florence hotel aptly named for its central location, its historic outlook and its contemporary appeal.
