The Croce Di Malta Hotel is located 500 meters from the Santa Maria Novella station in the bustling station district of Florence. The imposing 19th century was once a convent and has been completely restructured in recent years. Among the distinctive architectural features are the columns and arches that characterize the entry and lobby area. The hotel's 98 rooms, suites and apartments are decorated with terracotta walls and dark wood furniture. All have air conditioning, minibars, Internet
The hotel is one of the very few in central Florence to have a swimming pool and garden - a great place to unwind after queuing to see some of the nearby sights, which include the River Arno, Ponte Vechhio, Santa Maria Novella Church, Duomo and Uffizi Gallery. The restaurant, where the wood panelling provides a warm atmosphere, serves traditional Tuscan dishes, such as the typically Florentine ribollita, Chianina beef and fresh seafood. Guests can have a drink or breakfast on the roof terrace. The hotel is 5 kilometers from Florence Airport and 45 kilometers from Pisa Airport.
