A truly amazing property has posted some extremely alluring Easter specials available April 9–14, 2009. The Palazzo Magnani Feroni is one of those singular places where the guest effortlessly slips back into history, with the feel of a great family house, 11 authentic and unique suites and classic furnishings set in an historic palace.
Ideally situated on the other side of the Arno, but walking close to everything, this is the perfect place to savour the beginning of spring in Firenze. The Easter offers allow a wide choice from city sightseeing and Tuscan expeditions to cooking classes. Our favourite is the Chianti tour with a Vespa motorbike—a circuit along scenic and silent country roads to wineries midst rolling vineyards and terraces of ancient olive trees. You could also opt for a cooking class, shop in a typical Florentine fresh market, visit the Vasarian Corridor and Uffizi Gallery, take a carriage through the Firenze city centre or ride a horse in the Tuscan hills. The Easter package includes three nights’ suite accommodation for two guests, daily buffet breakfast in Murano Gallery hall, complimentary newspaper en suite, selection of soaps fragrances, tax included. Package for two guests costs €1,350–2,100, depending on suite selected. Extra nights can be booked at additional charge.—Stanley Moss
