DESCRIPTION
Been there, done that, got the frequent-flier platinum card? If airport VIP lounges now seem more like home than home, then the Continentale hotel in Florence may be something you've been waiting for. Delicate and intriguing, the hotel was created as balm to the jangling nerves of jaded international travelers. Forget the mineral water; sip a tart, dry Martini in the opulent bar and enjoy the Continentale's open areas, filled with spectral drapes and light pink, lemon and pistachio green tones, crafting a bright, almost shimmering effect. Guestrooms have window seats, leather furniture and desks disguised as trunks allowing you to write, relax or think. Time plays a subtle role in the design philosophy of the Continentale hotel and its scattered collection of clocks and watches will help you remember to take a break, whichever time-zone your body is currently in.
