The Hoxton, Florence opens and marks the brand’s second hotel in Italy
May 6, 2025
The Hoxton, Florence has officially opened, marking the brand’s second hotel in Italy, following the launch of The Hoxton, Rome in 2021.
Set in the heart of the historic centre, The Hoxton, Florence has 161 rooms split across two buildings. It also has a 16th century late-Renaissance palazzo with its original facade and impressive vaulted arcade, and a 1980s Andrea Branzi-designed building that serves as a modernist juxtaposition with its timber slatted facade and minimal, linear architecture.
Hotel features
Alassio – a coastal-inspired Italian restaurant
Enoteca Violetta – a vibrant laidback wine bar, a sprawling courtyard, dedicated event spaces
House – a self-contained 3-bedroom apartment with its own private entrance and living space, perfect for families and groups of friends
A stone’s throw from galleries, boutiques and bakeries and moments away from iconic landmarks such as the Duomo, Uffizi Gallery, and the Fortezza da Basso, The Hoxton’s new Florentine home is in prime location for locals and visitors to discover the best of the city.
Hotel design
The award-winning AIME Studios, responsible for the design and interiors, have carefully transformed the hotel which was originally built during Florence’s late Renaissance era for the esteemed Ricasoli family. Preserving its rich history, the building features iconic Renaissance elements such as an outdoor arcade encircling the courtyard, lime-washed walls, and original frescoes dating back to 1611. The contrasting buildings celebrate historical grandeur and the evolution of Florentine glamour, with a mix of vibrant colours, bold patterns, and opulent finishes. Spaces are adorned with bespoke designs and expertly curated vintage pieces, championing unique Italian craftsmanship layered with home comforts.
