Fact sheet

Though many studies and traces indicate that the original structure built on this site was a Roman Castrum (fortress), the first recorded documents date back to the 14th century when the villa first belonged to the Baldesi family, followed by the Bardis. Over the years, it was refurbished by some of Florence’s elite families, including the Tegliaccis from Siena, ultimately landing in the hands of the Salviati family in the 16th century. The Salviatis undertook an enormous restoration, adding frescoes and furnishings to create a warm and inviting space for their guests, officially naming it, Il Salviatino.

By the end of the 19th century, Il Salviatino was under the ownership of American official Mr. Phelps Thomas, who hired artist Augusto Bruschi for some decorative works, including the beautiful fresco we can still admire in what is now called, in its honor, the Affresco Suite.

In 1911, the villa was acquired by Ugo Ojetti, a passionate poet, journalist and art critic, who loved to spend his days reading, writing poetry and admiring the stunning views of Florence from what is now Room 8. Mr. Ojetti was responsible for adding the Greenhouse Suites as well as the magnificent library which, at the time, was one of the most renowned cultural lounges attended regularly by celebrities of their fields such as Salvador Dalì and Gabriele D’Annunzio.

After Ojetti’s death, the villa was passed down to his heirs and then, during the 70s and 80s, became Stanford University’s headquarters in Italy, housing classrooms, dining and accommodations for students. Upon Stanford’s departure, the villa was abandoned for almost 20 years and after a huge renovation that brought it back to its 19th century splendor, it officially opened as a hotel in 2010.

As of late 2016, Il Salviatino is under the ownership of Alessandra Rovati Vitali, founder and art director of Tearose. An entrepreneur, brilliant artist, innovative designer and style and trend inspirer, she is currently incorporating a distinctive branded experience inspired by Italian style and international taste.
