It’s Florence — again.
At the Condé Nast Traveler Reader’s Choice Awards in New York City last night, the great Italian cities once again dominated the Best European City category. The three finalists were Florence, Venice and Rome, with Florence repeating this year as the winner. Danilo Gallinari of the New York Knicks accepted the award for Florence – although he is from Milan! Over 25,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers participated in this year’s poll and it was a wonderful evening, honoring the best in the airline, hotel and travel destinations. In addition to Gallinari’s supersized contribution, luminaries of the big and small screen (Lorraine Bracco, Stanley Tucci & Mary Louise Parker), runway (former supermodel Rachel Hunter), boardroom (Richard Branson) and kitchen (Daniel Boulud, Danny Meyer) were on hand to present the winners. Maria Gabriella was in attendance as Concierge in Umbria was awarded Top Travel Specialist honors for the 4th consecutive year!
