Inn Details
The Casa dei Tintori B&B is housed in what used to be in the 13th century a large wool weaving and textile dyeing workshop. After a careful restoration, the B&B in the historical centre of Florence offers guests a gorgeous holiday in the true spirit of the best Italian bed and breakfast hospitality.
We have five splendid, spacious and elegant rooms, all with private bathrooms and furnished in period furniture and textiles in patterns and colours derived from the Florentine tradition of the "Arte dei Tintori". All enjoy the comfort of air-conditioning, TV and other amenities. A large breakfast prepared with quality ingredients equips guests for the start of their day in Florence.
