Palazzo Sogni Opens in Florence

Just steps from Florence’s Duomo, a 16th-century palazzo once owned by the Martelli family has welcomed Palazzo Sogni, a new 30-room and suite hotel built around a concept of “couture hospitality”.

Preserving Florence’s Heritage


The historic palazzo retains a nymphaeum featuring a fountain attributed to sculptor Baccio Bandinelli, as well as frescoed ceilings by Luigi Catani and Antonio Marini.

These elements have been restored with the involvement of local artisans, preserving the character of the building while giving it a new hospitality purpose.

An Artistic Direction by Elena and Giulia Sella


The interiors, designed by Elena and Giulia Sella, combine damask velvets, silks from traditional Florentine workshops, powder blue, sage green and ivory tones.

The bathrooms feature blue-veined marble and products from Officina Profumo-Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella, the historic Florentine pharmacy founded in 1612.

A Rooftop Facing the Duomo


Several suites and the top-floor terrace offer direct views of Brunelleschi’s dome, located less than 200 metres away.

With Palazzo Sogni, Florence welcomes a new intimate hospitality address where architecture, heritage and design take centre stage.
