A few steps from the river Arno and the heart of Florence, just as you heave left the bright lights of the lush shop windows, stands the prized building of the Hotel Executive looking onto Borgo Ognissanti with grandeur as though it were a unique, elegant monument; a rare example of nineteenth-century eclectic style. The edifice which holds the hotel is made up of two buildings from different periods in the XIX century yet both possessing significant artistic and architectural value, each with its own personality, linked to historical events of the city and the noble families who resided there.
