Residence Ricasoli offers more than just your ordinary Residence. We invite you to discover why. It will surely be an extraordinary experience living in the atmosphere that this Palace, which once belonged to the noble Florentine family, Ricasoli, has created through its 'stones' and the harmony of its portico. Surely an extraordinary experience living in this atmosphere with all services and comfort that a modern first class Residence has to offer. The residence found its place in this Palace thanks to incredible work and retorations which made it possible to recuperate one of the most important monuments of Florence Renaissance. Commissioned shortly after 1538 by Bishop Giovan Battista Ricasoli, the palace, opera of architect and humanitarian Cosimo Bartoli, became by the will of Cosimo de' Medici, the monastary of San Miniato al Ceppo, and was once again brought to life, although the ample gardens which once led to the walls of the city, were lost. Given back to the Florentines, this prestigious work of art was put at the disposal of the citizens of Florence as a place to stay, for its position, only a short walk away from the most significant places where culture and entertainment, for which Florence is famous for, should satisfy the desire to discover and understand this city, one of its kind in the world, in its most authentic aspect. A different experience therfore allowing one to feel Florentine among the Florentines. Business hours of reception: Every day: from 00:00 to 00:00 .
