PALAZZO ANGELIO FLAT:
Named in honor of former resident and scholar, Pietro Angelio, the flat occupies the main floor, the “piano nobili”. Original, authentic renaissance aesthetics, a grandiose inspiration and a stylistic purity elevate the spirit. Its rooms are arranged in palazzo fashion with sequences of long vistas. Their 300 square meters are decked with five hundred year-old beamed and paneled chestnut ceilings between four and five meters high, and its intricate parquet floors are of irreplaceable East African teak and ebony. Antique and contemporary furnishing assure both elegance and comfort.
The splendor of the two salons, each with elegantly hand-hewn Renaissance hearths, and a Steinway Grand piano are perfect for receptions and entertaining. The library/media room with fireplace is inviting for informal meals and gatherings, TV/video viewing and music, and a modern kitchen and restored '70's style bathrooms assure modern and convenient living and a comfortable stay.
The bedrooms are spacious, comfortable, bright, and each has an exquisite view. In addition, each has a writing desk, a seating area and privacy of access for “alone time”.
Two of the bedrooms have a suite character with a joining bathroom and doors separating the unit from common spaces. In addition, a smaller “parlor/study/ bedroom” provides separate space for writing or an additional guest.
The flat offers magnificent views from each room.
Huge windows overlooking the city give morning sunshine and observe the life in the Piazza below. The two balconies, one from the Grand Salon and one from a Bedroom Suite, overlook elegant art nouveau villas, and beyond the broad valley the magnificent Apuan Alps, their deep green slopes dotted with dreamy ancient villages. Traffic ebbs in the night and a deep silence reigns, broken by a chorus of song birds from the nearby park welcoming the new day.
