This Time Tomorrow in Florence is in the residential Le Cure neighbourhood on the northern cusp of the centro storico, a 20-minute stroll from the Duomo and a short bus ride from the city’s other cultural highlights.

Planes

Florence Airport is a 20-minute drive away. The hotel can arrange transfers on request (prices vary depending on the type of car).

Trains

Coast into Florence’s Santa Maria Novella on high-speed services from Italian cities including Rome, Milan, Venice, Turin and Naples. From the station, it’s a 10-minute drive to the hotel – transfers can be arranged on request for €10 to €15 each way.

Automobiles

Florence’s centro storico is best seen by leisurely stroll, and the hotel has good public transport links. There’s no private parking at the hotel, but if you bring a car, you’ll find a large covered public car park a three-minute walk away.

Other

Ponte Rosso is your local bus stop, a three-minute walk from the hotel. From there, hop on the C1 bus to head into the heart of the centro storico.

Worth getting out of bed for

The hotel’s local guide can help curate an itinerary of insider experiences. Options include tastings at chianti vineyards, a wine-paired dinner in a 15th-century palazzo, and guided art tours delving into the city’s hidden history. If you’ve caught the fine-art bug, you might meet a sculptor in his private Florentine studio, chatting over an espresso before setting out with him on a walking tour, or browse restored masterpieces at Bruno Balzano’s treasure-filled antiques shop. Rise early for a daybreak hot-air balloon trip, and you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of Florence, Siena and the Tuscan hills as the sun emerges over them.

 

For setting out solo, a good bet is a stroll down Via San Gallo, stopping at every gelateria and gallery that takes your fancy; the Crumb Gallery is a particular gem, showcasing work from emerging female artists. And Giardino dell’Orticoltura is a bijou botanical garden with a fanciful 19th-century glasshouse that’s only a short wander from your hotel.

Local restaurants

Caffe Lietta is a pretty, plant-strewn spot for lunch or an aperitivo in Piazza della Libertà. Whenever you rock up, order the pirulo, a ricotta-filled shortcrust pastry that might be flavoured with apple or gianduja depending on the season. Ristorante Alfredo has all the hallmarks of an Italian neighbourhood favourite – local regulars, limoncello and handmade tortellini – and it’s handily right on your doorstep.

Local bars

Taking a breather at Bar Fuori Orario is always a good idea, from an espresso and croissant mid-morning to sitting out nursing a negroni come nightfall.

Anonymous review

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this culture-steeped hotel in Italy and unpacked their vin santo and vintage homeware finds, a full account of their off-the-beaten-path break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside This Time Tomorrow in Florence…

If This Time Tomorrow in Florence sounds like a proposal for a spontaneous Tuscan tryst, you’re not far off – this is a sweep-you-off-your-feet sort of place. Eight self-contained apartments are heart-stealers, the lot of them, balancing breath-snatching frescoes and Baroque paintings with glitzy contemporary design. You’ll fall hard, too, for this north Florence neighbourhood, scattered with off-beat galleries and cantuccini-peddling patisseries. For a deeper dive, fill your diary with tailored experiences courtesy of the resident local guide – coffee at an artist’s studio, perhaps, or a private architecture tour. And look, we’re not saying clear your calendar, but picture an evening on your private terrace – you, a bottle of chianti and the sunset-burnished Florentine rooftops – and real world responsibilities suddenly seem a little more shirk-able. Tomorrow might be pushing it, but this is a date you’ll want to make prontissimo.
