Spa Hotels in Florence

"This is true *dolce far niente*: just the view from the window will make your colleagues drool and ask, 'Where's your country house?' Pro tip: ask for a higher floor so it's easier to look down on the plebeians below with an Aperol spritz in hand. There's an awesome gym: firstly, it's always empty with plenty of free weights, and secondly, you'll need it after the amazing buffet breakfasts. By the way, the ketchup there is so delicious you could bring a couple of bottles back for friends and be sure to tell them it's from the Radisson. And a huge bonus: an outdoor pool with inflatable rings where my friend and I splashed around like there was no tomorrow. The water is better than the sea on the Roman coast. And the sun loungers are so conveniently placed that you could lie there naked and no one would care. Only one thing to note: the hotel is located outside the city, and there's no decent taxi service in Florence. You can order a transfer from the hotel to SMN station. But there's no way back: you'll just have to hop on handsome Lorenzo's scooter and try not to crush it after the buffet and gelato. The staff are friendly, and there are complimentary apples and jelly candies at reception. Though, you have to be quick to grab them, as ravenous tourist groups sweep them away like seagulls. The bar has delicious pizza and a very strong Negroni. Surrounded by expensive cars, handsome Italians, and palm trees. So, come without your husband."
