25hours Hotel Florence is a playful and design-forward escape in the city’s Santa Maria Novella district. Housed in a former monastery and bank, the hotel is filled with bold nods to Dante’s Divine Comedy, where you can choose to stay in the fiery reds of “Inferno” or the calm tones of “Paradiso”. The atmosphere is lively yet welcoming, with spaces that invite both fun and relaxation. By day, the glass-roofed atrium café fills with greenery and the buzz of locals over paninis and aperitivos. By night, the hotel comes alive with a Negroni bar, a courtyard restaurant, a cinema lounge, a gym, a sauna and a hidden spa. Just steps from Florence’s historic sights, it’s a colourful and characterful base for travellers who like their stays with a little imagination.
