Riva Lofts, Florence, Italy - 3 for 2

A hip hotel with family-stay warmth; serene riverside location; restyled former-factory setting. Combining the visionary designs of architect Claudio Nardi and the convivial hospitality of his hotelier daughter, Riva Lofts is a dreamily rustic boutique bed and breakfast that’s filled with contemporary artworks, enormous antique mirrors leant against the reclaimed stone walls, and an array of vintage chairs ranging from Louis XIV to Mies van der Rohe. Despite its fashionista-friendly looks, however, Riva Lofts maintains the homespun welcome of a rural bed and breakfast.

€420 for a three-night stay in a Standard Studio, €480 for a Deluxe Studio, €560 for a Superior Deluxe Studio or €1,100 for a Loft Studio, including breakfast and taxes.

€1,300 for a three-night stay in a Junior Suite, or €2,000 in a Master Suite, including buffet breakfast, complimentary mini-bar (soft drinks), coffee and tea, welcome drink, WIFI access, and taxes.
