Originally a monastery, its rooms still preserve the feel of a monk's cell while offering all the modern amenities of a recent renovation. Across the square from the Hospital of the Innocents. A spacious, two-storied penthouse with coffered ceilings and huge picture windows, it is one of the most romantic hideaways in town. The location is two blocks from the Accademia, close to the archaelogical museum, the Ospedale degli Innocenti. The decor is extremely well done, consistent with its former use, there are vestments in some rooms displayed attractively as artwork.
Rooms are on the small side but very efficient.
Air conditioned, in-room safe, regrigerator, cable television with a few stations in English. Rooms may be even nicer than Morandi alla Crocetta, and much larger. Yet we were probably less than 15 minutes by foot to the Campo. The price includes breakfast buffet, which can be taken to one's room by tray if desired, or in the attractive, sunny greenhouse, or to one of the inviting tables in the garden. S taff at both these hotels are cordial, friendly, helpful.
