The leading theme of the L’O Hotel is the international Haute Horlogerie (Fine Watchmaking) inspired, in particular, by the collections of vintage wristwatches. Here, some of the finest top-end watches become decoration details and interior suggestions. A strong personality and deep man's traits are the base ideas of the L’O. The interior design, entrusted to Ms. Marianna Gagliardi, architect, aims to an extreme attention to details: a wide and fascinating sensory experience involving sight and smell, and the great importance of the materials like leather, parchment paper, dark brass and woods recalling the colours and the scents of tobacco. L'Orologio is a hotel on Piazza Santa Maria Novella. It offers stylish rooms with free Wi-Fi and marble bathrooms. Florence Cathedral is less than half a mile away. Each floor of Hotel L’Orologio is dedicated to an important watch manufacturer. Each room is unique, displaying photographs and paintings of a specific wristwatch model. The elegant rooms feature mahogany floors and furniture. They include a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, and air conditioning. Some offer views of the heart of Florence. A buffet breakfast is served in the top-floor dining room, which boasts lovely views of the square. The L’Orologio Hotel is surrounded by shops and restaurants, and has easy access to public transportation. It is 1300 ft from S.M. Novella Train Station.
