Livorno's grand dame of a belle-époque hotel, part of the MGallery by Sofitel, looks out to sea from its waterfront perch. The finest of its 123 spacious, elegant rooms enjoy big blue sea views – or simply head up to the rooftop infinity pool and restaurant-bar with panoramic balcony. There is no lovelier spot for a sunset aperitivo (predinner drink).
Room rates drop dramatically in low season when they can accurately be described as a steal.
