LOCATION: Florence, Italy
DATE: 2009…read moreHOTEL: Wall Art
This amazing hotel truly lives up to its name! Once you enter you will see so many original art pieces by upcoming Italian artists. My favorite art piece has to be this panoramic canvas with nothing but lucha libre wrestling masks that represent each country in the world!!!! I was very very impressed by the artist's very unique and random concept. It's just one of many forms of art around this great hotel...

If you get a room with a window, you will see the beautiful mountains and the local school across from it, filled with political propoganda on the walls. You will also see some unique/artsy gardening as well:

The hotel room I was in had one of the most epic headboards ever...lighting and all:

It felt as if I was in a snazzy, Italian loft...

The customer service was not bad at all...like I said, I really enjoyed walking around this place, staring at the artwork everywhere. Their continental breakfast is pretty bad-ass too! If I was to ever come back to Italy, I would LOVE to come back to this hotel.
