Antoitalia intermediary in the acquisition of a prestigious palace in Florence

Antoitalia intermediary in the acquisition of a prestigious palace in Florence

A historic building located in Via Calimala in Florence, just a few meters away from the Florence Cathedral (Santa Maria del Fiore), the iconic symbol of the city.

In 2019, Antoitalia acted as an intermediary in the acquisition process of the property, which had housed the fast-fashion giant Zara for many years. Through its asset management division, the company contributed to the conception of a project that resulted in the opening of two retail spaces on the ground floor, featuring Marciano Guess and Foot Locker, as well as the inauguration of a 5-star hotel called “La Gemma.”

The hotel occupies the spaces from the first to the fifth floor and offers 39 rooms, a bistro, the restaurant Luca’s, run by a Michelin-starred chef, a sauna, hammam, treatment rooms, and a pool.

A new opening in the heart of Florence, dedicated to contemporary luxury, where culture, art, and entertainment blend together to provide a unique hospitality experience.
