Profile


 
Overlooking one of the most lovely hills surrounding Florence, between the Certosa Convent and Ponte Vecchio, lies the Marignolle Relais & Charme. Tranquillity, comfort and closeness to the historical city centre, are some of the features that make the relais particularly pleasant for those who wish for a relaxing holiday, in an exclusive and charming environment. Thanks to its ideal position, from the relais it is possible to reach the city centre in a few minutes and visit its important monuments, museums and art galleries.
 
You will also have the chance to take part in the cultural events and fashion happenings that the city offers in every season. The relais is also an excellent base for excursions in the Chianti area, with its wonderful farmhouses and castles, to visit the Medieval towns of Siena, Volterra, San Gimignano, or other historical towns like Arezzo, Pistoia, Pisa, Lucca. The relais is surrounded by the typical scenery of the Florentine hills, with cypresses and cane-apple trees, broom bushes and pine trees, amongst the scents of lavender, rosemary, time and catmint.
 
Almond and peach blossoms and the intense geranium colours, according to the season, complete the harmony of the landscape. In a quiet and reserved location, a lovely pool with a large solarium, presenting deck chairs and sunning beds, is at guests' disposal from May to October, assuring a relaxing and refreshing break from work or from touring amongst the beauties of the Tuscan land. As a matter of fact, the relais, as it is inside a garden of a private home, has that home feeling.
 
Its cosy, comfortable and exclusive atmosphere makes our guests feel at ease just like in their own home. Breakfast is served gracefully and professionally in the large gazebo during the summer months. It may be a traditional continental breakfast with local jams, croissants, or home-made pies, or it may be American style, with scrambled eggs for all tastes, cheese and bacon, served in refined Florentine china dishes and silverware, making it feel like a Sunday morning family breakfast.
