Neighboring the famous Ponte Vecchio, Uffizi Gallery and Pitti Palace, The
Westin Excelsior, Florence combines luxurious modern accommodations with seven
centuries of Florentine history. The Westin Excelsior's presence on Piazza
Ognissanti is impressive, featuring newly refurbished guest rooms, a
professional staff dedicated to impeccable service, and a state-of-the-art
business center. Sitting high on the banks of the Arno River, the hotel also
offers spectacular views of the panoramic Tuscan countryside, the colored
terracotta rooftops and the landmarks of Florence. These are just a few of the
reasons it was recently named to Conde Nast Traveler's 2002 Gold List.
