The Kraft family started their business
in hotel management in Bern,
Switzerland, in 1854, where Jean Kraft built and inaugurated the
BERNERHOF HOTEL. Before that, Jean Kraft had been the Manager of the
famous GASTHOF KRONE, in Bern, since 1851. There he had the opportunity
to build his experience as a hotel manager.
During the Krafts' management, the
luxurious BERNERHOF Hotel, with its
123 rooms and 185 beds, hosted illustrious guests such as the Queen of
Naples in 1862, King Leopold of Belgium in 1864, Marshal Juan Falcon,
President of the Republic of Venezuela in 1869, Rockefeller in 1894,
Gabriele d'Annunzio in 1905, Paderewski in 1906. In 1924 the Kraft
family sold the BERNERHOF Hotel to the Swiss Federal Government which
turned it into an office building.
In 1878, Jean Kraft's youngest son,
Gerardo, emigrated to Turin to stay
at his uncle Costantino Kraft's, who owned the "Grand Hotel di Torino",
while the rest of the family remained in Bern. In 1880 he moved to Rome
where he ran the Hotel Quirinale. In 1883 he married Emma Wegenstein,
thus becoming kinsman to another well-known family of hotel managers:
the owners of the Schweizerhof Hotel, located by the Rhine waterfalls
in Neuhausen. In Florence he bought the Hotel Italia in 1883 and the
Hotel Royal de la Paix in 1897. He then restyled it, added a fourth
floor and renamed it Grand Hotel, with 120 rooms and 240 beds. After
finishing their studies in Switzerland, his sons returned to Florence
and went through an intensive training in hotel management in Germany,
in France (Cannes), in London, in Interlaken, Naples and then returned
to Florence. In 1928 Gerardo Kraft expanded the Hotel Italia in Piazza
Ognissanti in Florence and established the Hotel Excelsior Italia with
170 rooms. The latter was inaugurated with a grand party on April 1st
1928.
Several celebrities stayed at the two
luxurious hotels in Florence: the
Romanov family, Emperor William II of Prussia, the Dukes of Windsor,
the Shah of Persia with his wife Soraya, Princess Margaret of England,
Elena of Romania, Queen Sofia of Greece, the King of Yugoslavia, the
English Prime Minister W. Churchill and a number of world-wide famous
artists such as Johann Strauss, Backhaus, Cortot, Rubinstein, Menuhin,
Toscanini, Benedetti Michelangeli, Bruno Walter, Furtwangler, Beniamino
Gigli, Maria Callas, Josephine Baker, Maurice Béjart, Carla Fracci,
Marcello Mastroianni, Gina Lollobrigida.
Some historical photographs have been
taken from the album of the Grand
Hotel and of the Hotel Excelsior.
One of the most relevant events at the
Hotel Excelsior was the wedding
of the Duke of Spoleto with Princess Irene of Greece. Fifty-eight
guests were invited, amongst them the Italian monarchs and the Princes
of the most important European states.
In 1958 the Kraft family sold the two
hotels to CIGA, but soon after
Ermanno Kraft, Emilio Kraft's oldest son and grandson of Gerardo Kraft
- who had moved to Florence - purchased the Hotel Byron in Via
Solferino in Firenze and renamed it Hotel Kraft. The Hotel Kraft is
still run by his daughter, Monique, who continues the family's
tradition with an entrepreneurial approach combined with the respect of
the rules of the best Swiss hospitality, well-known all over the world.
Through the tireless effort of Mrs. Kraft, HOTEL KRAFT S.p.a. have
added to their hotel business in the Italian tourism sector the
following activities:
VILLA LE BARONE
Start-up and marketing of an ancient Villa owned by the Della Robbia
family.
RESIDENCE SAN LUIGI
Plunged in nature and tranquillity, in the hills between Florence and
Siena.
CASTEL VERDELLI

The relais is surrounded by the typical
scenery of the Florentine
hills, with cypresses and cane-apple trees, broom bushes and pine
trees, amongst the scents of lavender, rosemary, time and catmint.
Almond and peach blossoms and the intense geranium colours, according
to the season, complete the harmony of the landscape.
In a quiet and reserved location, a
lovely pool with a large solarium,
presenting deck chairs and sunning beds, is at guests’ disposal from
May to October, assuring a relaxing and refreshing break from work or
from touring amongst the beauties of the Tuscan land.
The relais and its parking lot are both
fenced in. Access is permitted
only through the automatic gate with a screen intercom, as privacy and
safety are two prerogatives of our relais.
Breakfast is served gracefully and
professionally in the large gazebo
during the summer months. It may be a traditional continental breakfast
with local jams, croissants, or home-made pies, or it may be American
style, with scrambled eggs for all tastes, cheese and bacon, served in
refined Florentine china dishes and silverware, making it feel like a
Sunday morning family breakfast.
As a matter of fact, the relais, as it is
inside a garden of a private
home, has that home feeling. Its cosy, comfortable and exclusive
atmosphere makes our guests feel at ease just like in their own home.
For golf lovers, it is possible to book
“green-fees” in the three
beautiful golf courses that surround Florence, the historical Ugolino
Golf Club, the more technical Poggio dei Medici and the modern Le
Pavoniere. In any case, it is necessary to book your golf trips in
advance by reserving your “ tee-times “directly at the relais.
The gourmet cuisine lovers might have
some “tasteful experiences” by
directly taking part in the making, and of course tasting, of
traditional Tuscan dishes prepared by the relais landlady, an
experienced gourmet cook. You may help her choose the right ingredients
and learn the right cooking methods, discovering the true secrets of
Florentine cuisine.
We also organize “wine-tasting”
in the Chianti area, “shopping tours”
to the griffes outlets, and visits to the artisan workshops through the
ancient quarters of the city. Upon request, it is possible to reserve
hostesses or interpreters, or to organise a shuttle service for
congresses and exhibitions.
The relais presents six spacious very
finely furnished double rooms,
within a refined and comfortable environment, making your stay pleasant
and relaxing. Each room is different from the others, both in its
shape, its furniture and in its tapestry. Antique furniture, 19th
century prints and a small ornament collection complete the refined
atmosphere.
The air-conditioned, microclimatic and
soundproofed rooms are supplied
with satellite tv, direct telephone line and plugs for Internet
connections. The built-in closets, being very large and very well
equipped. The bathrooms have large mirrors and double built-in Carrara
marble washbasins. The toilet is separated from the rest of the
bathroom by a door and so is the shower. The precious “cabreuva
vermelha” parquet floor gives the atmosphere a warm and welcoming
touch.
Inside the rooms you will find courtesy
hot drink kettles, a mini-bar,
and a wine and champagne selection that you may enjoy while in your
room, or relaxing in the gazebo.
The relais is destinated to non smoking
persons, thus the direction
begs the clients to respect this rule. Besides, pets are not accepted.
