The Heritage

More than just a new icon of elegance in Florence’s hospitality scene, this project embodies a legacy, the realization of a dream—the dream of the Marchese di San Giuliano.
A refined aesthete and patron of the arts, the Marchese spent nearly 40 years bringing to life one of Europe’s most extensive model railway systems, now housed at the HZERO Museum, located on the ground floor of Palazzo Ottaviani. This extraordinary exhibit tells the story of movement, discovery, and adventure, values that now take on a new dimension within this hospitality concept.
Today, his son Diego and his daughters, Giulia and Maria di San Giuliano, carries forward this vision, transforming Palazzo Ottaviani into a place where travel becomes an experience, and visitors become part of something greater.
