"How did it strike you on arrival? First impression: Slick and stylish, modern with a twist of Florentine style. Rich colors—21st century Italian. It stands on the north bank of the Arno, just downstream from the Ponte Vecchio; all suites have river views. Who stays here? Models, reclusive rock stars, Pulitzer novelists. How was check-in? Super high-tech, with white glove service. Everything is seamless, easily explained and catered to you. You feel like you have your own personal concierge. The good stuff: What are the rooms like? The design of the luxurious, contemporary suites make you feel like you have stepped into a movie set where you are the fabulous protagonist in an equally fabulous film about being gorgeous and Italian. Think high-end textiles, dark woods, light metals by Italy's top design firms—as well as hand-crafted pieces from Ferragamo. All rooms include a kitchenette complete with mini-dishwasher and hob, cleaverly hidden from view behind wardrobe doors. Any other particular standout details? Fresh flowers every day! Apart from the top of the class in-room amenities (excellent bar, Nespresso coffee, Salvatore Ferragamo deluxe bathroom soaps and hair care) and smart tech, Portrait has the best beauty amenities I have experienced in a hotel: great kits that include state-of-the-art hair dryers and flat irons, and personal brushes. What about room service and food: Worth it? The ground floor Caffe d'Oro is a chic morning caffe, and restaurant for lunch and dinner. Breakfast buffet included in certain rates. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you. Free entrance to the nearby Museo Salvatore Ferragamo. Access to sister hotel Continentale's White Iris Beauty spa. Bottom line: worth it? Yes, for the service and view." - Erica Firpo
