Palazzo Vecchietti, Florence, Renaissance palazzo in central Florence, Italy.

Palazzo Vecchietti is a Renaissance palace in the heart of Florence with a symmetrical four-story facade decorated with carved stone ornaments and grand windows. The building combines classical Renaissance architecture with modern interior amenities for contemporary comfort.

The palace was designed by architect Giambologna in the 16th century and became an influential residence of the Vecchietti family in Florence. The building reflects the architectural development of the High Renaissance and remained a key part of the city's urban fabric.

The interior spaces connect to Florentine literary history through rooms that Dante Alighieri mentioned in his works. This link makes the building a place where history and poetry come together.

The palace now functions as a boutique hotel where visitors can stay in luxurious rooms while enjoying the historic architecture. The building is centrally located in Florence and therefore easily accessible on foot.

The building once housed Botticelli's painting 'Sant'Agostino' before it was moved to the Uffizi Gallery collection. This artwork was long connected to the palace and remains one of the most notable historical associations of the place.
