Barry Sternlicht, Chairman and CEO of Starwood Capital Group and SH Hotels & Resorts, today announced plans to open its first Baccarat Hotel in Florence, Italy, set in the stunning and majestic 14th century estate of the Villa Camerata.
Baccarat's signature balance of artful luxury, French savoir-faire, and innovative imagination will create an extraordinary experience for both local Italians and international guests, ushering in a new standard of hospitality and service excellence in the region.
Baccarat Hotel Florence, true to its exquisite surroundings, will be located at the historic city's northern edge, nestled between the vibrant city center and the charming hilltops of Fiesole. This unique location will allow hotel guests to enjoy a holistic hospitality experience that combines the peaceful atmosphere of Tuscany and the historically rich city of Florence.
Poised to set a new standard for luxury in Tuscany - one of Italy's most breathtaking regions – the estate will evoke a regal history of centuries past, balanced by crystal-faceted, contemporary interiors. The hotel, developed in partnership with Omnam Group, will include spacious guest suites, two food & beverage outlets, a garden café showcasing sustainably sourced fruit and vegetables, and oculus lounge.
Recreational elements include a serene wellness space and spa featuring an indoor pool, and an outdoor pool surrounded by a terrace and courtyard resplendent with on-site gardens.
