B&B Presentation
Welcome
to The Cimatori
Bed and Breakfast; a hidden
gem in the heart of Florence right next to the Duomo, Palazzo
Vecchio in Florence’s
famous Piazza della Signoria and Dante Alghieri’s
house.
Wander down the labyrinth of enchanting historical
streets and
breathe in the unique magical atmosphere of Florence where
artists and culture flourished. Cimatori Bed and Breakfast takes
its name from the medieval square inwhich it is located.
This Romanesque
square and S. Martino del Vescovo church was where,
in the Middle Age,
workers cut the matted ends (the Cime) off
the fleeces.
This area was also territory of the wool guild.
Today, you cannot
observe
the sheerers at work but you can still admire the beautiful
frescoes by Antonio del Chierico in the San Martino church.
Art
lovers can enjoy all the artistic and monumental sites of
past that lie at our doorstep. Fashion lovers can browse
round the Italian designer shops nearby. Excellent traditional Tuscan
food and wine can be enjoyed a short walk away...
