Hotel Helvetia & Bristol
Florence, Italy
Nestled in the centre of Florence, Hotel Helvetia & Bristol has been the ‘home away from home’ to many distinguished visitors for more than a century, from young aristocrats on their Grand Tour, to Pirandello and Montale, Stravinsky and Gorbachev. Owner Luigi de Simone Niquesa restored the historic mansion with meticulous care and respect using materials and furnishings that evoke a world of refined elegance, from the antique-filled guest rooms to the drawing rooms with their fine 17th-century paintings. Considered one of Florence’s finest luxury hotels, Hotel Helvetia & Bristol boasts suites with panoramic views of Brunelleschi’s cupola at the top of the Duomo and the renowned Hostaria Bibendum restaurant serving innovative and traditional Tuscan recipes.
