Frequently our readers ask us to help them locate the famed "Room With a View" that was the protagonist of E.M. Forster's novel as well as the incredibly romantic Merchant-Ivory film. For years we had to disappoint them, because the historical pensione that inspired the original story finally closed its doors in the early 1990's. But we are happy to tell you that both young lovers and ageless romantics can now enjoy that venue again, since this hotel opened its doors in June, 2002. The guestrooms and services are brand new, but the building dates back to the 1200s, and a great many of the original features have been painstakingly restored, so that some guestrooms have portions of stone walls, the Internet point has exquisite 14th-century frescoes, and the breakfast room is .... well, there's a good chance the incredibly ornate salon could distract your attention from your eggs!

Location: On the Lungarno, right next door to Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Galleries.

Executive rooms have two armchairs; deluxe rooms have a sitting area with sleep sofa below and a double bed on a sleep loft above. All the rooms on the river side are very sunny.     Features: Soundproofing, air conditioning, double-glazed windows, color satellite TV, direct-dial telephone (not suitable for modem use), mini-bar, safe, luggage rack, wardrobes with shelves, and good reading lights.
