all about bea

make the most of your stay

A stylish interior with a large ornate mirror, a wooden armchair with red cushions, a small table with two stained-glass lamps, potted plants, and a pink rug on a dark wooden floor.

Find fresh perspective in Florence

Inspired by the art and architecture of the Italian Renaissance, Ruby Bea is a celebration of Florence's historic mingling of ancient and modern. 


Alongside classical columns, arches and niches, you'll find modern art that plays with perspective, while rich hues and opulent fabrics meet polished steel, marble and mirrors for a dramatic mix of dark and light. 


Come on in and indulge your inner artist…

Lean Luxury

So you can enjoy a stylish, city-centre stay for less, we've scrapped needless extras like room service, and focused on the things that really matter.

Relax at our 24/7 bar

Blending classical forms with modern illusions, the 24-hour bar is a love letter to Renaissance architecture and art. Joins us for a drink, try the local tipple or catch a live gig.

Galley for all your needs

You'll find free tea and an iron on floor 2, 4 or 5. There’s also a Maxi Bar where you can buy everything from drinks and snacks to an umbrella or a toothbrush.

  • A marble table with an orange cocktail in a wine glass, a creamy orange drink in a tumbler, and a small bowl of nuts, set in an outdoor café with black and white decor and plants in the background.
  • A modern desk with a lamp sits in front of a window, which is open and reveals a scenic view of a hillside town with greenery, rooftops, and distant mountains under a clear sky.
  • A cozy, stylish library with dark blue walls, bookshelves, a fireplace, a large window, indoor plants, a dining table with chairs, a red velvet armchair, and warm yellow and orange rugs on a wooden floor.

  • roof terrace

    Elevate your stay

    After a long day exploring the city, grab a cocktail and make tracks to our pretty roof terrace. Grab a spot at a sunny table or relax under the pergola, surrounded by potted plants from across the Mediterranean. We only go al fresco in fair weather, so please ask a host for opening times during your stay.

  • workspaces

    A flexible workspace in Florence

    On the top floor of Ruby Bea, our beautiful workspace draws design inspiration from Renaissance artists, and features original stonework and wooden beams. There, you'll find hot desks, co-working tables and meeting rooms with all mod cons, plus a private roof terrace for al fresco sessions. Drop in with a discounted day pass, exclusively for hotel guests.

  • library

    Escape to serenity

    Whether you’ve work to do, a book you can’t put down or just need a moment of calm, head to the library. Tucked away on the ground floor, it's a tranquil spot to catch your breath and collect your thoughts. Plug in your gadgets at the table and speed through your to-do list with free superfast WiFi, or curl up in a cosy chair to finish that last chapter.

A restaurant booth with teal upholstery features a breakfast spread on the tables, including juice, coffee, fruit, pastries, bread, and a bowl of soup. Salt, pepper, and cutlery are also placed on the tables.

Enjoy our breakfast

Our tasty, locally sourced breakfast buffet is served in the bar every morning, along with bottomless barista coffee or organic tea. Tuck in to fresh fruit and superfood cereals, along with wholegrain bread and a delicious selection of meats and cheeses. For a taste of Florence, try our local specialities.


Didn't book breakfast? No problem. We'd still love to see you there. It's €20, which we'll charge to your card. 

Two women in casual clothes stand in a bright room, one pointing toward something in the distance while the other smiles. A suitcase and a neatly made bed are visible in the background.
