'La Dimora del Centro' is located in the heart of the ancient and renewed city centre of Florence, piazza della Repubblica, and sits in a prestigious building dating back to 1890, which was also once the seat of the main florentine newspapers such as La Nazione. In this palace Eugenio Montale used to write his poems, sitting at a table of the famous Cafe Giubbe Rosse.
This little bed and breakfast with its windows looking on a breathtaking city landscape offers a spectacular sight over the 'Cupolone' (Brunelleschi's Dome), the Campanile di Giotto (the bell tower designed by Giotto).
