Our History

This is us. We met by accident in Florence, both coming from two different sides of the world (Sharon from Argentina, Homam from Syria). We fell in love instantly, and one month later we moved in together. Some months afterwards COVID started and we were both unemployed but with a huge dream: opening a hotel. We saw the situation as a crazy adventure, when everything was closing we still believed tourism will come back. So we started walking the empty streets of Florence trying to save someone giving up. After many days we found our place, and we used the lockdown to make every single angle special. The day the borders opened was the start of

Arno Boutique hotel. 
In the meantime we also got married at an amazing villa in the middle of Tuscany, and one year later Emma (the little) was born. 
From the first moment we gave this place all our love, we took care of every detail together, and we were so glad to receive so much love from guests. 
This is how we got inspired to open a second hotel: San Frediano Boutique. 
This a very brief version of our story, which comes entirely from LOVE, for this city, between our family, for everyone that we would gladly host.
