Donati Luxury Tower Suites
Florence, Italy · ★ 4.7 Exceptional B.Booking.com 9.4
A hot tub on a private terrace with Brunelleschi's dome peering over the rooftops, right in the heart of Florence.
Slip into the hot tub on your private terrace and there it is: the Duomo's terracotta dome rising above the old stone rooftops, close enough to feel slightly absurd. That's the quiet trick of the Donati Luxury Tower Suites, a small property tucked into the medieval fabric of central Florence where several suites put you in the water with one of the world's great skylines at eye level. It's a genuinely good reason to book a hotel with a private in-room plunge pool in Florence, and then realise you've actually got something better: an open terrace, warm jets, and that view.
The terrace itself is compact and enclosed by old pietra serena walls, which keeps it private and sheltered. Suites vary: the Michelangelo offers a partial Duomo view with its Jacuzzi, the Buonarroti adds a one-bedroom layout with a city-view terrace, and several others include spa baths or a sauna. One honest note: the terrace furniture in the photos shows some wear, so don't expect a polished resort finish. What you get instead is something more Florentine: a little rough around the edges, and completely real.

Questions, answered
Can you actually see the Duomo from the hot tub?+
In several suites, yes. The Michelangelo suite is listed as having a partial Duomo view from its Jacuzzi terrace, and the photos confirm the dome is visible above the rooftops, though the terrace is enclosed by walls so it's a framed glimpse rather than a panorama.
Which suite should I book if I want the terrace hot tub rather than an indoor spa bath?+
The Michelangelo and Buonarroti suites are your best bets for an outdoor terrace with a Jacuzzi or hot tub; the Lorenzo il Magnifico, Raffaello, and Brunelleschi suites are listed with spa baths, which typically means an indoor soaking tub rather than an outdoor hot tub.
Which neighbourhoods give the best views from an in-room tub in Florence?+
The historic centre delivers the most, with properties near Ponte Vecchio and the San Firenze area putting you within earshot of the city's heartbeat. A room above the roofline here means you're soaking with a genuinely old skyline in front of you, not a courtyard wall.
Are the tubs in these Florence suites actually private and in-room?+
Every property we list has been verified: the tub is inside your suite or on your private terrace, not a shared spa facility. That's the whole point of this directory, and we won't list a place if we can't confirm it.
