The Galleria delgi Uffizi was in fact the very first public art gallery in the world, filled with thousands of priceless artworks and masterpieces created by some of the greatest artists in history. Famous pieces by Michelangelo, Botticelli, Mantegna, Correggio, Leonardo, Raffaello and Caravaggio all reside here. There are also masterpieces by Dürer, Rembrandt and Rubens. The Galleria delgi Uffizi is an absolute must for all art lovers. The Palazzo-Medici-Riccardi is a five-minute walk from the hotel as is the medieval Ponte Vecchio Bridge that crosses the river Arno, filled with gold and jewellery shops as far as the eye can see. The surrounding streets are filled with an array of big name fashion boutiques like Gucci and Roberto Cavalli, who incidentally are local designers; as well as countless other international fashion houses.
