Hotel Renacer
The cradle of the Renaissance, Florence is a must for art aficionados, while the fresco-filled chapels, red-domed roofs and winding cobbled streets make it the perfect place for a romantic getaway. Set away from the hustle and bustle of this riverside metropolis is Villa Cora, a cultural symbol in itself with an esteemed guest list which counts Napoleon III’s wife and Tchaikovsky among its ranks. And having witnessed the splendour of this aristocratic hideout, with its 44 rooms including the very grandest of suites, beautiful gardens and subterranean spa, we think you’ll understand why.
