25hours Hotel opening in Florence

The 25hours Hotel Company is gearing up to open a 173-room hotel in Florence, Italy, next summer.

The 25hours Hotel Piazza San Paolino will be located a few steps from Piazza di Santa Maria Novella.

The hotel will be located in three historic buildings, which are being renovated and combined into a single complex. The renovation of the 7,700-square-property, which will be themed around Dante Alighieri's "Divine Comedy," is being carried out by interior and product designer Paola Navone and architects Genius Loci Architettura.

The 25hours Hotel Company, which formed an alliance with Accor in 2016, operates 13 hotels in German-speaking countries as well as in Paris.
