A MEDIEVAL JOURNEY
Discover a pagan cult site at the sanctuary of Piazza
Santa Croce. Sit with the spirits of ancient ancestors
as they gathered to talk about life and its mysteries
on the ‘Col dei Paternostri or ‘Our Father’s
Hill’. Climb down from its verdant and wild
slope and take the trail to the Piazza Santa Croce.
Follow the Franciscan monks’ delicate parchment
which tells you of the consecration of the Santa Croce
Basilica to the Holy Mary and to the Holy Cross. Walk
into the Basilica and admire the works of the great
masters. Introduce the mind to Arnolfo di Cambio,
the greatest architect of medieval times and his Gothic
architecture that still adorns all the old buildings
in and around Santa Croce. Walk around the Piazza
and let your mind and your eye take in the very soul
of medieval architecture and the luxury of royalty.
The air rings with the toll of bells,
the rhythmic chant of the monks and the chatter of
neighbors across the Piazza. As you walk slowly around
the Piazza Santa Croce, your eye settles on a beautiful
historic building. Your idea of the perfect holiday
is now complete as you hurry down Via Torta, just
30 meters from Piazza Santa Croce. Enter the frescoed
12th century building and waft on the wings of enchantment
up to the third floor. Throw open the doors of your
Palazzo Medici 2 apartment and be enveloped by its
warm interior, its beautiful décor and the symphony
of space and elegance.
You will be drawn to its wide windows
to absorb the Florentine atmosphere and to see the
gorgeous scenery which resembles a Florentine painting.
Sit down in your luxurious living room and imagine
the medieval ladies sitting around and daintily stitching
their tapestries. As your eye traverses the room,
delight the senses when you suddenly discover a secret
door. Open the door and to your amazement you will
find that Palazzo Medici 1 apartment can be connected
to your Palazzo Medici 2 apartment! Imagine the intrigue,
the passions and the emotions of the Florentines.
Now you can have an entire wing at your disposal.
Palazzo Medici 2 offers you the royal gift of your
own private quarters.

walk through your apartment that has a lovely living
room with a huge big bathroom. Peek into the big airy

Mix hot or cool drinks in your bright kitchen for
yourself or for the family and store your favorite
foods in the freezer. Open the door to your bedroom
and walk over to the windows and feel the whisper
of breeze as it brings a song to your heart. Go over
to the other big bedroom that is identical to your
spacious one with a pull-out bed and be happy to know
that your family can luxuriate in comfort. Apartment
