This 17th century palazzo reveals its charms in a discrete manner which will capture your heart as soon as you see it. Tranquil and intimate, the Villa Abbazia has another ace up its sleeve: a unique location at the crossroads of numerous treasures. At the juncture of the rose-coloured stone of the Dolomites, the Prosecco route - a delicious white wine from the region - and the romantic splendours of Treviso and Venice, there's only one thing wrong with this residence: your choices are too vast. For golfers, the 18-hole course in Asolo - christened “the town of one hundred horizons” - will merely make this dilemma even more difficult…

Villa La Vedetta

Hotel and restaurant in town (Firenze)
“I reached the point where the celestial sensations produced by the Fine Arts and my passionate feelings came to a climax. As I left Santa Croce I had palpitations of the heart; life was drained from me; I walked with the fear of falling.” While travelling in Florence in 1817, Stendhal was bewitched by the beauty of the Tuscan city. His psychic disorder was named “Stendhal syndrome” or “Florence syndrome” by the scientific community. This anecdote gives you a hint of the emotions you will experience when staying at the Villa la Vedetta, a Neo-Renaissance hotel in a chic and modern style offering a panoramic and enchanting view of Florence, just steps away from the Ponte Vecchio. To help you recover, submerge yourself in the delightful hydro-massage pool…
