Portinari-Salviati Palace

Florence, Italy

Palazzo Portinari Salviati, an exclusive historical house in Florence with luxury hotel services and Michelin-starred restaurant.

Following meticulous restoration, the prestigious 15th century Renaissance home of Beatrice Portinari, Dante’s muse, and the first residence of Cosimo I de’ Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany, is back in all its splendour.

This palace was already included in the list that was drawn up in 1901 by the General Directorate of Antiquities and Fine Arts, described as a monumental building and a national artistic heritage.

Today the Palazzo houses elegant suites with frescoes from the 1700’s and luxurious apartments overlooking the heart of the city with breathtaking views of the Duomo and its majestic Brunelleschi dome.

Architettura Sonora enriches this luxurious location, both through integrated acoustic systems, such as the combination of satellites (Icarus_Multiwall or Icarus_MultiStand) and subwoofers (Icarus_Sub) in the Lounge bar, or with omnidirectional full range elements, such as Icarus (in its StandAlone version) and Medium_Cylinders, the latter also present in the starred restaurant Chic Nonna by Vito Mollica, a restaurant nestled in the heart of the palace, amidst precious mosaics and original frescoes of unparalleled beauty in the center of the iconic ‘Emperors’ Court’.
