EX-BORSA MERCI BUILDING

In the heart of Florence, between Via Por Santa Maria and Piazza del Mercato Nuovo, the former Commodity Exchange building tells a story of transformation, memory and rebirth.

Built on an area that once housed ancient Roman baths, medieval buildings and the historic Porta di Santa Maria, this place has lived through different eras, always maintaining a deep connection with the city and its identity.

Today, the building opens a new chapter: a renewed space where history, architecture and contemporary hospitality coexist with balance and character.
