The Westin Excelsior Hotel

Renaissance Majesty Meets Modern Indulgence—An Icon on the Arno.

8 / 10
The Westin Excelsior Hotel

With its soaring domes, intricate frescoes, and stately façade, The Westin Excelsior Florence is more than just a luxury hotel—it’s a living work of Renaissance art. Housed in a historic palace on Piazza Ognissanti, the hotel boasts over 150 elegantly appointed rooms and suites, many with private terraces overlooking the Arno River and the Florentine skyline. Inside, soaring ceilings, marble-clad bathrooms, and classic Italian furnishings set the tone for indulgent city living. A highlight of any stay is SE·STO on Arno, the hotel’s crown jewel rooftop bar and restaurant, where contemporary Mediterranean cuisine is paired with panoramic views of Brunelleschi’s Dome and Ponte Vecchio.
