Helvetia & Bristol, a magnificent 19th-century townhouse in the centre of Florence, continues to captivate the most demanding guests with its timeless charm and impeccable service.
An exquisite symbol of Florentine history, it is one of the most prestigious hotels in the city. Established in 1894, it has welcomed many influential international figures, from poets Eugenio Montale and Gabriele D'Annunzio, to playwright Luigi Pirandello and actress Eleonora Duse. A recent and extraordinary renovation has restored the hotel's true splendor, thanks to the contribution of Italian expert artisans who have brought to light its reimagined heritage.
In the heart of Florence’s historical center, the hotel is perfectly placed for a visit to the city’s main attractions and is a stone’s throw from Via de’ Tornabuoni, the most exclusive shopping street in Florence.
