The noble family Rimbotti open their historic dwellings to business travellers

Countess Maria Vittoria Colonna Rimbotti.

The private historic homes date back to the 14th and 15th centuries and are all located in the centre of Florence, plus one villa just outside the city. The properties also include a hotel in Ortigia (Syracuse) and a resort in Fez (Morocco).

FLORENCE – After 20 years of successful management in luxury leisure, the historic residences of the Rimbotti family, by decision of Countess Maria Vittoria Colonna Rimbotti, are made available to top managers who wish to enjoy a stay of real comfort and prestige in the heart of Florence, the world class capital of fine arts, and cradle of Italian Renaissance.

It’s three buildings built between the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, plus a villa in Fiesole, which was inhabited by Alighieri family, were restored with love by the Rimbotti’s and brought to life again. A series of careful planning, since the 1960’s, have also contributed to elevate the beauty of the architectural context.

"Palazzo Rimbotti, for instance", says the Countess, "located as in Piazza Antinori, at the beginning of Via dei Tornabuoni, is at the heart of the luxury shopping district of the city and today goes hand in hand with the baroque style of the Cathedral in front of it. The building has been a forerunner of the current trend in the area, considering that at one time the big maisons were not there and the boutique of Hermes that we host was the first to open in the neighbourhood."

The ‘Palaces’ have all very large and comfortable apartments – no comparison with a hotel. The walls are frescoed and the paintings precious. They all date back to the golden age of Medici’s Florence. Extremely popular with the USA, Canadian and South American leisure customers, from today they are available for business travellers too.

"As for leisure, we are not interested in bite-and­run business tourism, so we have not made either reservations or prices available on the Internet; travellers contact us personally."

The offer also includes two luxury boutique hotels in Syracuse and Fez (Morocco), described in detail below, alongside the Florentine residences.
