Palazzo Roselli Cecconi in Firenze, open June–September.
Palazzo Roselli Cecconi stands apart as a Renaissance palace converted into a working hotel, meaning your guests enjoy authentic period architecture without sacrificing modern hospitality.
Located on a quiet Florentine street steps from the Duomo, this venue offers the rare advantage of accommodating your wedding party and celebration under one roof.
The palazzo's original frescoed ceilings and stone courtyards provide distinctly Florentine grandeur that mass-produced event spaces cannot replicate.
Do not stay here – serious health hazard. All the rooms we saw had visible black mold in the bathrooms. The smell was so strong we couldn’t use the washroom without getting headaches. Staff tried covering it up with silicone, but the problem came back worse through the drains. The hotel denies the mold even though it’s obvious and refused a refund. Booking.com was no help either. This was supposed to be part of our honeymoon, but instead it was unsafe, stressful, and miserable. Save yourself the risk — book elsewhere. Also, dot believe them when they say they will refund you. if you decide to leave they will lie and say they will refund you- THEY WILL NOT REFUND YOU. If you have the same experience DO NOT LEAVE UNTILL THEY REFUND YOU.
