The prestigious five-star Savoy Hotel Florence Italy is easily found between the cathedral and the Arno River on Piazza Repubblica Street. It is just a short stroll to the well/known Duomo Cathedral and a stone’s throw from the Uffizi Gallery and the Ponte Vecchio. It was remodeled and the mixture between the contemporary Italian design by Olga Polizzi and the classical building is interesting and the views are magnificent. The rooms are very comfortable and the bathrooms are stylishly decorated with tiles and marble combined. The Savoy Hotel has one of the best restaurants serving mouthwatering Florence cuisine which might include Tuscany delights such as pappardelle alla lepre (pasta with hare meat), stuffed Tuscan chicken or tortina di carciofi (breaded artichokes) and the best desserts like panforte di Siena (bread made with honey, candied fruit, and almonds). And to work off these calories, if you wish, there is a full gymnasium with the most up-dated machines and the best views to motivate you. You need not leave you stay at the Savoy Hotel just for vacation time: try to convince your boss or business partner to have their conventions there.
Worth Imitating the Savoy Hotel Florence Italy
But if we have tried to reach to high, you can always go for a cheap apartment in a palace atmosphere in the Santa Croce area, but with all the luxury in the world. The Palazzo Medici apartment has enough space and beds for 8 people to have a mind and body refreshing stay.
And in your kitchen which is well-equipped with all the necessary amenities, you can cook up a storm, using the Florence Italy recipes that are given below.
Stuffed Tuscan Chicken Breasts ( serves 8 people )
- 4 boneless chicken breasts ( sliced in half )
- 8 slices of any type italian cheese
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 half cup flour
- 1 cup white cooking wine
- salt and pepper as you like
- 4 ounces chopped and fried red peppers
- 3 fourths cup sage crumbed leaves
- 3 fourths cup oregano
Flatten chicken breasts and put a thin layer of red peppers, sage and a slice of cheese. Roll each breast and hold it closed with either cooking string or toothpicks. Mix the flour, oregano, salt and pepper and cover the breasts in it. Heat the olive oil and fry the breasts. When they are golden, add the wine and simmer for about 12 – 15 minutes. Serve over a bed of pasta or rice.
Whether your stay is at the grande Savoy Hotel Florence Italy or in one of the cozy florence apartments, you will feel the full spirit of the Italian way of life.
