Imagine waking up to the golden light of the Tuscan sun caressing your eyes, opening the window and seeing Arezzo's Piazza Grande come to life below you—one of Italy's most evocative outdoor living rooms. Just steps away, the majestic Medici Fortress watches over the city, a silent witness to centuries of art, power, and beauty. This is not just a stay: it's a contemporary Medici experience, and it starts at La Corte del Re.

The Medici Fortress: the beating heart of Arezzo's history

Built in 1538 by order of Cosimo I de' Medici, the Medici Fortress is more than just a monument: it's a living palimpsest of history. You'll walk along the ramparts overlooking the entire Valdichiana, breathing in the air of Renaissance intrigue and political battles. Today, the Fortress is a cultural park open to all: it hosts art exhibitions, food and wine events, and concerts under the stars, where the past blends with the present in a harmonious embrace.

Sleeping in Piazza Grande: Experience Arezzo from its ancient heart

Our luxury apartments at La Corte del Re offer you privileged access to this magic. Located directly on Piazza Grande, you can walk downstairs in the morning and reach the Medici Fortress in less than a five-minute walk. No cars, no maps: just you, your comfortable shoes, and the authentic Tuscany waiting just around the corner.

Every detail of our accommodations is designed for those seeking uncompromising elegance: wood-beamed ceilings, refined fabrics, furnishings that respect the historic soul of the building—but with all the contemporary comforts, from fast Wi-Fi to a kitchen equipped to prepare an Italian breakfast with local products.

Arezzo Beyond the Fortress: A Dream Weekend in Tuscany

From the Fortress, lose yourself in the Antiques Market in Piazza Grande (every first weekend of the month), enjoy a glass of Chianti DOCG with a slice of ricotta cake in the historic café under the loggias, or immerse yourself in the light of Piero della Francesca's Golden Morning in the nearby Duomo. Arezzo isn't something to visit: it's something to experience.

And upon your return, La Corte del Re welcomes you with its exclusive tranquility, far from mass tourism but at the heart of everything that makes this city a secret jewel of Tuscany.

Book your apartment at the best price, just steps from the Medici Fortress. Arezzo awaits you—not as a tourist, but as a guest of honor.
