With Labor Day marking the end of summer, it’s time to start thinking about those fall trip plans. Here is a round up of some amazing hotels in some great fall destinations. Book with me for exclusive Fora perks :)
Florence, known to the Italians as Firenze, is a city where art, history, and culture intertwine to create an experience that feels almost timeless. Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, it’s a place where the echoes of the Renaissance can still be felt in every cobblestone street and every sunlit piazza. The Duomo, with its iconic dome designed by Brunelleschi, dominates the skyline, while the Arno River winds gracefully through the city, reflecting the beauty of the Ponte Vecchio’s ancient arches.
Wander through Florence, and you’ll find yourself immersed in masterpieces at every turn—from the majestic sculptures of Michelangelo’s David in the Accademia Gallery to the breathtaking frescoes adorning the ceilings of the Uffizi Gallery. The city is a living museum, but also a vibrant hub of modern Italian life. Cafés spill out onto the streets, their tables laden with the rich aromas of freshly brewed espresso and the laughter of locals and visitors alike. The markets, like the bustling Mercato Centrale, are a feast for the senses, offering everything from handcrafted leather goods to mouthwatering Tuscan delicacies.
But Florence is more than just its famous sites; it’s a city of hidden gems and quiet corners where you can escape the crowds and find a moment of peace. Whether you’re strolling through the Boboli Gardens, sipping a glass of Chianti in a cozy enoteca, or simply watching the sunset from Piazzale Michelangelo, Florence invites you to slow down, savor the moment, and immerse yourself in the beauty and romance of one of the world’s most enchanting cities.
A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of staying at the Hotel Vin in Downtown Grapevine, TX, and let me tell you, this place is an absolute gem. Nestled in the heart of the historic district, it is the perfect home base to check out the fun shops on Grapevine’s Main Street or hop on the Grapevine Vintage Railroad. However, I think my favorite part of the hotel is Harvest Hall, a vibrant food hall that is connected to the main lobby of the hotel. It perfectly complements the hotel’s ambiance and is the perfect place to grab a quick coffee in the morning, enjoy a leisurely lunch, or indulge in a late-night snack, all without leaving the hotel.
