Villa Cora, an aristocratic residence built in 1868 and owned by the Fratini family, stands in century-old grounds overlooking the garden of Boboli, on the hills bordering the historical centre of Florence. The Villa is located in a residential area, only 10 minutes away from the city center thanks to the free shuttle service that operates in the key points of the center and 20 minutes on foot. Ample parking and free bicycle rental are available to guests. The hotel boasts 46 exclusive rooms and suites, all designed with attention to the smallest details. The Italian garden that surrounds the Villa features a heated swimming pool, open all year round. If you want to enjoy a wonderful view, perhaps sipping a delicious cocktail, just go up to the wonderful panoramic terrace on the fifth floor. The restaurant menu curated by the Executive Chef Alessandro Liberatore offers only seasonal and mainly local produce. The "Bené" SPA includes a tepidarium with relaxation area, a gym, sauna and hammam.

The Cause

The IEO-MONZINO Foundation is the only one that exclusively and directly finances the clinical and experimental research of the European Institute of Oncology and the Monzino Cardiology Centre: for 30 years its aim has been to identify the best treatments and support innovative projects through a virtuous circle that allows, in total transparency and without waste, what researchers discover in the laboratory to be made available to patients.

Funding for research proves to be strategic for the work of the doctors and scientists working at IEO and Monzino, so that the progress and results achieved in the laboratory can be rapidly transformed into more personalised treatments, and translated into increasingly effective diagnostic systems.

The priority commitment of the IEO-MONZINO Foundation is therefore to further strengthen fundraising so as to make precious resources available to support the research of excellence carried out by IEO and Monzino and to enable their work with continuity and in the medium/long term.
