Tivoli Palazzo Gaddi is Now Open and Welcoming Guests in Historical Centre of Florence

Originally made up of two historical buildings belonging to two aristocratic Florentine families - the Gaddis and the Arrighettis, Tivoli Palazzo Gaddi is a living testimony to a noble past with unique historical and artistic treasures, such as frescoed rooms, artist's paintings and art objects, many dating back to the 16th century. The building features typical Florentine architecture and has recently been renovated by internationally renowned interior designers, Patrizia Quartero and Guy Oliver, preserving the character and noble spirit of its Renaissance history due to the dedicated work of specialized restorers and local artisans.

Tivoli Palazzo Gaddi offers 86 guest rooms, including eight suites, blending authentic period furnishings and Florentine art with contemporary comfort and functionality. The presidential suite has a panoramic terrace with breath-taking views over the city?s skyline, including the spectacular cathedral.

The Aria Rooftop bar is the perfect place to enjoy unforgettable sunsets and one of the best views over the city and the Duomo. The menu is signed by the chef Iside de Cesare, offering pre-dinner aperitifs, refreshing cocktails inspired by the Florentine gardens, and delicious snacks, like the signature bolla, each time revealing a new flavour to delight the palate and the senses.

The cosy lobby hosts the Milton Bar, named in honour of one of Palazzo Gaddi's most distinguished guests, the poet John Milton, who took inspiration here to write his masterpiece - Lost Paradise - during his stay in 1638. With its distinctive fireplace and library, the bar welcomes guests to enjoy a selection of refreshments and comfort food throughout the day, and as dinnertime approaches, a selection of Italy's finest cheeses and wines.

Terrae Restaurant, Aria Rooftop and Milton Bar are managed by the Executive Chef Iside de Cesare, a Michelin-starred chef in La Parolina restaurant in Trevinano, together with the Resident Chef Salvatore Canargiu, who bring their expertise and creativity to enrich the gastronomic offer of the Tivoli Palazzo Gaddi.
