It is an inspiring concept hotel located on the famous via Calimala, surrounded by the city’s most iconic landmarks and stylish shopping streets.
Just moments from Piazza della Repubblica, the Ponte Vecchio, Piazza del Duomo, and via de’ Tornabuoni, La Gemma Hotel offers an oasis of serenity in the heart of Florence’s vibrant city center.
The perfect destination for those travelers interested in the arts, fashion, design, architecture, and contemporary Florentine culture, La Gemma Hotel is the place to be. It is a design-led hotel created and masterminded by the Cecchi family, a young, dynamic team aiming to offer the city’s best hospitality.
Architecturally, La Gemma Hotel marks a new era for this prestigious Florentine property, and its transformation draws inspiration from its surroundings. The concept and interior subtly pay homage to Florence’s famous cathedral with its distinct colors and sculptural design elements.
La Gemma Hotel offers exclusive Florentine hospitality within a historic palazzo located over five floors of accommodations, including a selection of rooms and suites. These rooms and suites are impeccably presented and finished with vibrant silk wallcoverings, Italian bedlinens, and bathrobes by Rivolta Carmignani. Marble bathrooms boast furnishings by Devon & Devon with ceramics by Gio Ponti. Several rooms feature private terraces overlooking the city. www.lagemmahotel.com
At the heart of La Gemma Hotel is Luca’s restaurant and lounge, a beautifully presented space inspired by the Art Deco era. Gentle arches divide the room into comfortable dining areas, while the paneled walls, open wine cellar, and handcrafted bookcases add warmth, character, and charm.
The Cecchi family has lovingly created the concept of Luca’s gourmet menu, which honors the classic traditions of Florentine cuisine yet reinterprets these with a robust and contemporary vision. Meals are both authentic, innovative, and mouthwateringly delicious!
