A most inspiring stay. We have made many trips to Florence but this one will stand out because of the Twins Boboli House. I felt the spirit, the artisanal heritage, and the essence of Florence every morning when I woke up under a frescoed ceiling. I'm a writer so early morning inspiration is important. It gets me writing, which is what I did every morning in the kitchen with an espresso cup in hand and my eyes wandering from the page to the beautiful objects, usable art surrounding me. The sisters are art restorers, carrying forward an artisan tradition that has been in their family for decades. They restored every part of this space with their own hands, their imagination, and hard work. Their studio is close by. The setting is along one of our favorite streets in Florence. Carla and Silvia made everything super easy; check in, check out, any question got an immediate answer. When we needed a dentist they recommended one right away. The space was immaculate and had everything we needed. They left clear directions on what to do and what was required. The layout of the loft is perfect as it's an open space with the kitchen in a separate room but the two bedrooms while side to side have no ceiling so you look up at the frescoes. It's a space where several people can be together and feel connected while having personal space. It was easy for me to write while my husband practiced Italian. I loved, loved, loved returning to the loft at the end of every day or evening. Exhilaration was commonplace. It's a place one should experience at least once while in Florence. We will return. A presto
