Questions about the venue
Can we get married in the hotel's religious spaces?+
The hotel occupies a deconsecrated convent, so civil ceremonies can take place within historic architectural spaces like the Crypt. Religious ceremonies require coordination with Florence's authorized churches, which the hotel can facilitate.
What is the maximum guest capacity?+
The venue accommodates 20–150 guests depending on which event spaces you select and your ceremony/reception configuration.
Are outside vendors permitted?+
Contact the hotel directly at https://www.hotelbrunelleschi.it for their specific vendor policy regarding catering, florals, and photography.
What accessibility features does the palazzo offer?+
As a historic building, certain spaces may have stairs and uneven flooring. The hotel team can discuss which rooms and areas are fully accessible for guests with mobility considerations.
How far is the hotel from Florence's main airport?+
Florence Peretola Airport (FLR) is 4 km away, approximately 15 minutes by car or taxi.
