There’s a terrace overlooking the river and a balcony with vistas over buildings and a courtyard. There are two bedrooms here, while guests five and six will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living room. Situated in the exclusive Santo Spirito district, you’ll be within walking distance of some of Florence's most iconic landmarks, such as Ponte Vecchio, the Duomo, the Uffizi Gallery and the Palazzo Vecchio.

Single-Level Home

Located in one of the most magical parts of Florence right by the Arno, this apartment opens its doors to a stylish Italian getaway. The owners have crafted a calm city sanctuary with space to stretch out, unwind or catch up on work. We love the clean lines, neutral tones, and pops of colour – it all feels very contemporary and sophisticated. Outside, private parking is a big perk if you're travelling by car. You can also stroll to restaurants, cafes, and local farmers' markets. Keen to visit the landmarks? It’s just a twenty-minute walk to iconic sights like Florence Cathedral as well as museums.

Santo Spirito Style

Microwave

Toaster

Right above Florence's Teatro Verdi, this two-bedroom apartment is ideal for families and friends, with a sofa bed in the living room for an extra two guests. The gorgeous art of famous works like Michelangelo's David above the beds really make this home stand out, and while you can expect some outside noise here due to the location, we think it's more than worth it. You'll be just steps from attractions like the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, as well as plenty of shops and restaurants for stocking up on essentials and trying the local cuisine.

Penthouse apartments in Florence don’t get much better than this. Here, you’ll have incredible views of the city, River Arno, and iconic sights including the Duomo and Brancacci Chapel. The L-shaped terrace is the star of the show, with an alfresco dining area and a space for open-air yoga and pilates. The apartment is sleek and modern, despite being housed in a 17th-century palazzo. You’ll have all the mod-cons you could wish for, and you’ll be in the Santa Maria Novella district, a ten-minute walk from the train station. We’re ready to book our flights for the view alone. 

Florentine Panorama

Fireplace

Set over three floors of a medieval tower, this characterful apartment is a bit of a climb, but trust us, it's worth it. With its tiled floors, antique furniture and stone walls, there's plenty of rustic charm on offer. But head on up the spiral staircase to the top-floor lounge, and you'll be blown away by the panoramic views. From up here, the entire city is stretched out before you. Admire the iconic red dome of the Duomo, watch the sunset over the Palazzo Vecchio and spot the spires of the Basilica of Santa Croce. Day or night, the sweeping scenes are some of the best in Florence, and they're entirely your own. Just grab a glass of wine and take it all in from the cosy sofa. Downstairs, there's a quaint dine-in kitchen, well-equipped for rustling up an Italian feast. And when you're ready to venture out and explore the famous sights for yourself, most monuments and museums are only a ten-minute walk away.

Duomo Vistas

You'll find this charming apartment right in the heart of Florence. All the main must-sees, from Palazzo Strozzi to the iconic Duomo, are within easy reach. Shops, restaurants, and a train station are also nearby – it certainly ticks the boxes for location. With moody blue hues and antique wooden windows, the design back home radiates romance. A snug little sitting area connects the lounge with the bedroom, a perfect spot for reading. We think it's an excellent size for two, though the kitchenette would be better suited for light snacks.

Renaissance Symphony

Located in the historic district of San Lorenzo, this home is ideally situated to experience Florence, and immerse yourself in the medieval streets as you wander the area. Start each morning here with a cappuccino and frittata breakfast, enjoyed alfresco on the terrace area on warmer days. 

Then, head out for a day of exploring and visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore or the Duomo – both only a short six-minute walk away, or take in some art at the Uffizi Gallery – reachable in thirteen minutes on foot.  

The street adjacent to this home is perfect for lunches, dinners and shopping, with many restaurants, trattorias, cafes and shops reachable in just one minute on foot. Plus, the main city market is also only a one-minute walk away, providing the perfect shop for picking up some produce to cook at home. Why not also go on an Italian wine tasting – which can be reached in as little as one minute on foot – and choose your favourite tipple to take home and enjoy with your authentic Italian pizza outside in the courtyard. 

Florence and the Dream

This modern apartment sits just outside of the bustling city centre of Florence, in San Frediano. It’s an excellent choice for those wanting to be close to the sights of the city while still enjoying a peaceful holiday location – you can easily walk to Ponte Vecchio, the Uffizi, and the Duomo from here. The apartment is also close to Santa Maria Novella train station. We love the stylish furniture and the large windows, which make this home-from-home bright and welcoming. The balcony is the perfect spot for a glass of wine before heading out to dinner. 


Renaissance Respite

Desk / Workplace

Underfloor Heating

Nestled in the cobbled heart of Florence, just a four-minute stroll from the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. In true Florentine fashion, it enchants from the outset, sitting shoulder to shoulder with a delightful string of haute-couture boutiques and world-class art galleries. 

The beautifully-equipped interior exudes elegance, cloaked in calming neutral tones and vibrant pops of colour. Sweeping archways create a free-flowing ambience primed for relaxation, and large windows usher in heaps of natural light while offering picturesque snapshots of the pretty courtyard below. After a restful slumber in the sumptuous bedrooms, spend mornings roosted at the dining table for espressos and pastries before slipping out for a stroll to the red-tiled Duomo or across the river, passing through the shop-lined Ponte Vecchio – they're both just six minutes away on foot. 

Between adventures, kick back on the plush upholstery with a good book or a glass of wine and, if you feel so inclined, prepare delicious meals in the fully-equipped kitchen. Though, in this gourmet paradise, we wouldn't blame you for exploring the wide variety of eateries at your doorstep. 

Watercolour Clouds

Smart TV

Elegance meets comfort at this apartment in the heart of Florence. There are shops, restaurants, bars and gelaterias on your doorstep and the striking facade of the city’s famous Duomo is just a short stroll away. It’s on the second floor of a historic building, so you’ll need to be ok with a few steps to the entrance, but once inside you can forget about the rush of the city. The plush dining table is big enough for the whole group and traditional touches like the coffered wood ceiling and French-style windows keep things feeling typically Tuscan.

Brilliantly efficient, Blue Heron combines easy living with a great location. The design here is clean, modern, and comfortable, but because it’s run by a management company it does lack a bit of character. We won’t hold that against Blue Heron though, because you’ll find it in the very heart of Florence, just a few minutes’ walk from the Duomo. Better yet, this street is quiet and surprisingly uncrowded given its proximity to Florence’s biggest tourist attraction. There’s even a charming balcony that looks the courtyard – a perfect spot for an espresso or a glass of wine.

Access to Beach

Breakfast Included

Mosquito Net

Set amidst the artistic and architectural wonders of central Florence, this apartment welcomes you to experience the majestic beauty of the Tuscan capital. And with the renowned Mercato Centrale just moments from your door, there’s everything you could need to sample the delicious flavours of Italian living. 

From the open-plan design to the rustic stone and contemporary styling, the owners have created a space that feels instantly welcoming. There’s a generous living and dining room, while the cosy kitchen opens up onto a wonderful terrace – providing the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee or later with early evening drinks. Back inside, the air-conditioned bedrooms have been designed to enrich your stay with comfort and ease – ensuring you wake up refreshed and ready to explore. 

Days can be spent wandering the atmospheric streets of San Lorenzo, marvelling at the Basilicas, admiring the art and savouring the magic of the traditional trattoria. And for those evenings when you want to experience the comfort of home, this apartment invites you to sit back, relax and enjoy a cosy movie night (Netflix is included). 

Fiore di Città

Ceiling Fans

Delivering knockout vistas of the Florentine hills from a private suntrap terrace and set within easy walking distance of the city’s must-sees, it’s no surprise this home caught our eye. By inner-city Florence standards, this apartment set over two floors is palatial. There’s a banquet-worthy dining room and a well-equipped Italian-style kitchen. Though, with countless trattorias just a stroll away, we suspect you’ll be eating out a lot. It’s worth noting, at full occupancy, the last two guests will have to make do with a single bed and pull-out bed in the cosy fourth bedroom. Fine for a short stay or children sharing – but it might not float everyone’s boat.

Florentine Hills

Visiting Florence is always a good idea, and staying in this historic palazzo makes it all the more memorable. You’ll be in an incredible location, between the iconic Ponte Vecchio and  Ponte Santa Trinita – you can admire the four seasons statues from the living room windows. This home comprises two suites with bedrooms at mezzanine level above the living spaces, and a third bedroom. There’s plenty of space – you can unwind here in between exploring Florence. 

Between the Bridges

Pets Allowed

Pets

Florence's most famous landmarks are mere steps from this apartment. Ponte Vecchio, Piazza Signoria, Florence Cathedral, and plenty more are less than ten minutes away on foot. Of course, being in the heart of the city has its quirks. Noise is likely here, and a climb to the third floor is required as the building doesn't have a lift. But once inside, we reckon you'll appreciate the traditional features on offer. The open-plan living area has just enough room to decompress after sightseeing as well as a compact (yet well-appointed) kitchen to rustle up Italian dishes. Two guests will sleep on a sofa bed, though – fine for short stays, but may not suit everyone.

Florentia

We were sold on this Florentine apartment's private terrace alone – and that was before we'd even clapped eyes on the lofted living space. While both double bedrooms are charming, the last guest will have to make do with a sofa bed in the lounge, which is overlooked by the loft bedroom balcony above. So, while it's an impressive feature, it's not the most private space. Set in the characterful Santa Croce district, you're set back from the tourist traps immediately around the Duomo yet within easy walking distance of the must-see sights. Get off to a flying start at Piazza Santa Croce – it's just around the corner.

Renaissance Hideaway

Under the soft gaze of Florence’s historic buildings and surrounded by olive trees, this home feels like a calm oasis in the heart of the city. It’s a wonderful setting for friends and families to relax, whilst also enjoying the close proximity to the iconic sights and monuments.  

Stepping inside, you’ll want to pause and savour the unique presence of this apartment – it’s a traditional space filled with personal details that add warmth and character. And whether you’re preparing drinks in the kitchen, enjoying the warm breeze on the terrace or gathering around the table, this home is designed to enjoy the beauty of Italian living. 

Outside, you can wander through the Piazza d’Azeglio and on through the majestic city streets to the Cathedral of Santa Maria – only a twenty–minute walk away. You’ll also find the beautiful market of Sant’Ambrogio is just a five–minute walk from this home – this is a wonderful spot to mingle with locals and sample traditional delicacies. 

The Celestina  

Bathrobes

If you're looking for a central Florentine home that oozes Italian charm, this is it. And as a bonus, it boasts uninterrupted views of the famous Pitti Palace, sitting directly across from the magnificent structure. This characterful abode has been masterfully restored, seamlessly marrying original features with design-led touches. Shuttered windows, hardwood floors and whitewashed ceiling beams create an elegant aesthetic, complemented with tasteful antiques and plush soft furnishings.

Whichever double bedroom you choose, you'll be given the premium treatment. Comfort has been given the top priority here, followed closely by the restful colour scheme of off-white, soft greys and jewel-toned accents. We think the deep teal wallpaper adds a boutique feel to the space.

From this location, you won't struggle to tick Florence's must-see sights off your itinerary. Piazza della Signoria, considered the city's heart, is just a short hop across the river, while the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fior is just a thirteen-minute walk away. Immediately on your doorstep, an array of buzzy bars and traditional restaurants invites you to savour the very best of local cuisine. We'd suggest a light breakfast so you can load up on the pasta and pizza come dinnertime.

Pitti Pad

Paid Parking On Premises

Elegance meets comfort in this bright apartment located just across from Florence’s historic Ponte Vecchio. From its parquet flooring to its detailed wall panelling and contemporary furnishings, this home oozes subtle sophistication at every turn. Snuggle up on the sofa with a glass of Italian wine after a day of sightseeing or gather around the smart dining table for a celebratory feast cooked up in the sleek kitchen. 
We love the luxurious marble-clad bathrooms with their rainfall showers and the pared-back simplicity of the comfortable bedrooms. You’ve also got access to a communal rooftop terrace with awe-worthy views of the Florence Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio Tower – the ideal spot to retreat to in the evening for an aperitivo. 
Outside of your home, the Pitti Palace is a four-minute walk away, the Duomo is walkable in nine and the beautiful Boboli Gardens are a twenty-minute stroll from your door. With your host able to organise plenty of fun activities – from boat trips on the Arno to wine and food tastings as well as truffle hunting and hot air balloon rides – you’ve got everything you need for a magical, memorable stay. 

Jacopo

Record Player

Take things easy on one of two gorgeous balconies belonging to this dream of an apartment a short walk from central Florence. With views across the rooftops to the green hills, it's just about 50 metres from Ponte Viejo and Piazza Pitti.

A romantic retreat for two at the top of a traditional building, it's bright, neatly laid out and super comfortable. In the summer months, all you'll need is the small but practical kitchen, the outdoor dining table – shaded from the sun with an awning – and the squashy outdoor corner sofa. Grab some fresh bread, olives and a glass of something chilled, and watch the sun go down over this historic city.

Aria to a Bird

In Italian construction, the 'piano nobile' refers to the storey of a building — typically the first — on which the nobility would reside, therefore being designed to get the most favourable living conditions. This apartment in a fifteenth-century building is a prime example of how this looks in practice. High ceilings and large windows (through some of which the Duomo can be spotted) make the interior feel bright and inviting, while being positioned above street level means that it's a little more peaceful than elsewhere in the building. While there are some period features — the fresco ceilings and the imposing oak front door — the apartment has been modernised in the ensuing six hundred years or so. The parquet flooring, marble bathrooms and mid-century style furniture in deep blues and greens are today's emblems of fine taste. When you're ready to go exploring, you don't have far to go — Basilica di San Lorenzo and Riccardi Medici Palace are just across the street, while the Duomo is only five minutes' walk away.

Sixth Sense

Gaze out at the iconic domed cathedral from the comfort of this spectacular city-centre apartment. Set within an eye-catching period building, complete with imposing wooden double doors, along the rather lovely Via dei Servi, which connects the Piazza del Duomo and the Piazza della Santissima Annunziata. 

This narrow street is lined with a wide array of shops, charming cafes, and traditional restaurants, which should be your first port of call when you get the urge to head out and explore the city. For a closer look at the duomo, you need only walk a couple of minutes to the bustling piazza that surrounds it. Wandering a little over 100m in the opposite direction will lead to the fascinating Leonardo da Vinci Museum, which is filled with life-sized machines based on his many sketches. 

For more Renaissance creations, the iconic Uffizi Gallery lies around 700m to the south – well within walking distance. We'd recommend a leisurely riverside stroll along the River Arno afterwards, or if you're feeling active, head out on a stand-up paddleboarding expedition downriver.

Inside, the apartment is all clean lines and contemporary design, the exposed wood of the soaring ceilings and large wood-framed windows are the main clues to the building's extensive history. An open kitchen and living area combines Scandinavian style with Italian flair to create a stylish space with a real soul.

The Mannerists

This elegant apartment gives you a taste of the Florence of the past. The building is 800 years old and full of charm – though, of course, a home of that age will show some signs of wear and tear. We love the wooden floors and the ceiling beams, but the real star of this home is its location. Staying here, you’re based in a quiet neighbourhood that’s close to the top sights of the city. You need only walk six minutes to reach the Uffizi and ten minutes to the Duomo. 

The Art of Florence

Crossed Paths is right in the middle of the city – at one end of the street is Santa Maria Novella, at the other the river. It’s a great position to be in, and it feels like that’s informed some of the interiors. They’re kept in fantastic condition, but the decoration feels a little impersonal, and you’d struggle to cook a dinner party in that kitchen. Still, you aren’t exactly short of things to do and places to eat in the area. 


Crossed Paths

This apartment is a great base for a family or a group of friends visiting Florence. Situated close to all the historical sights, you can walk to landmarks like the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, while good public transport connections mean that you can easily reach other parts of the city, too. With comfy bedrooms and plenty of space for dining, not to mention the small private balcony, this place has everything to make your stay here an enjoyable one. There's even a desk if you need to catch up on work. And while the kitchen is on the smaller side (though still well-equipped), you'll find an array of delicious eateries a short stroll away.

The Symmetry

Distressed wooden beams line the high ceilings in this quaint Florence apartment. The accents of distressed wood and exposed traditional stone walls continue throughout the home, adding a layer of Tuscan farmhouse charm to this city apartment. Blink and you'll think you're in a twee cottage in the rolling hills of Tuscany. You wouldn't think you're right in the centre of Florence. It's the perfect blend of traditional charm with city convenience. And convenient it is – you're less than a ten-minute walk from so many of the city's hotspots. But first, the best way to prepare for a day of exploring is a hearty breakfast. Head to a nearby bakery to pick up some local goods and enjoy a beautiful spread around the large table. 

When you're ready to venture out, you're just a ten-minute walk from the Uffizi Gallery, Piazza del Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, Ponte Vecchio, and so much more. Enjoy gaping at Renaissance masterpieces, shopping in quaint boutiques, and eating to your heart's content. When your feet can no longer go on, pick up some antipasto and a local bottle of wine to be enjoyed around the dining table before hitting the hay. Your queen-size bed promises a deep, restful sleep, preparing you to wake up refreshed and do it all again the next day. 

Fresco Faintness

Ideally located just a two-minute walk from the famous Uffizi Gallery, this modern apartment puts you in a prime position to discover Florence’s most celebrated sights. 
 
Pared-back, contemporary decor sets the scene in the open-plan living area where a sofa invites you to make yourself at home with a glass of Italian wine and a dining table beckons breakfasts over fresh coffee ahead of a day of sightseeing. 
 
We love the parquet floors featured throughout, as well as the plethora of art prints decking the walls. The bedroom is equally stylish with its inviting bed and gild-framed oil painting, while the bathroom – complete with a stone rainfall shower – is ready to get any day off on the right foot. 
 
When you’re ready to set out for a day of adventure, spend some time admiring the Uffizi’s art or take a stroll across Ponte Vecchio, a four-minute walk away. You’re also a three-minute walk from Piazza della Signoria, while the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is eight minutes away on foot. 


Echoes of Art

A smart apartment in one of this beautiful city's typical period buildings, this place is perfectly located for exploring Florence. Overlooking Palazzo Vecchio and Piazza della Signoria, its super central setting is perfect for things like high-end shopping, restaurants and bars, while historic sites are just a matter of minutes away. It's all easily walkable from your door.

Step inside and your home is spacious and comfortable, with high ceilings, woodblock flooring and plenty of room for a group of six. The elegant living room is partly lined with bookshelves and there's a separate kitchen with a dining table for meals at home. Three pretty bedrooms are down the hall, each feeling private, and they share two modern shower rooms.

Right on the Via Vacchereccia, this is a home for those who want to be right in the heart of things and its busy surroundings won't suit everyone, but if you're looking for a big apartment just steps from the central Piazza della Signoria square, this character home is the one for you.

Venerable Age

Free Parking

Immerse yourself in all that the magical city of Florence has to offer with a stay at this charming apartment situated right at the heart of the old town, just steps away from the iconic Duomo. Located in a historic building, this place retains all of its vintage charm while at the same time boasting modern comforts and luxury to make your holiday extra restful. 

Enter through the front door to be greeted by a bright living space, with floods of natural light gently streaming in through the large windows. We love the high ceilings with their white wooden beams – what could be more authentically Florentine than that? You’ll find plenty of room to kick off your shoes and relax on the comfy sofa which at night can be pulled out to serve as a double bed. The kitchenette may be small in scale but it has all you need to whip up a quick and delicious supper or breakfast, which you can then enjoy with your loved ones at the elegant dining table by the window. 

When you also consider the plush and luxurious bedrooms, with their soft beds and lovely pale tones, as well as the spa-like ambience of the modern bathrooms, you know that you have all you need to have a relaxing stay. 

Start your day with a fresh cup of Italian coffee before heading out to discover the many gems of Florence – aside from the proximity to the Duomo you’ll also be a three-minute walk away from the Bargello Museum, which houses many of Michelangelo's masterpieces. 

The Green Dome 

With its slightly kitsch, pop art-inspired aesthetic, Rush Grande won’t appeal to everyone, but it has an undeniable sense of playfulness, and you can’t argue with a location like that. The flat is surrounded by Renaissance architecture, with both the Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio a few minutes away on foot. The structure itself also fits into the category, and the wooden beams are a nice touch that keep the interior grounded in the area’s history, even if the contrast with the art is striking.


Rush Grande

Minimal designs, contemporary fittings and an oh-so-central location in the heart of Florence's San Marco district make this home a prime spot for a short stay in the Tuscan capital. With piazza del Duomo just a four-minute stroll away, visit the iconic Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore with ease and convenience. Meanwhile, you'll have the city's iconic Renaissance art museums, such as The Galleria dell'Accademia only a two-minute walk from your front door. 

Following a fun-filled day of taking in Florence's enchanting history, culture, artworks and food and drink scene – head back to the apartment to catch some respite. Relaxing here is just as easy as exploring as you'll find plenty of space for the whole group to relax. Sprawl across the couch and pour yourselves a glass of locally sourced wine at the dining area or why not try your hand at cooking up some local Tuscan delights? The comfortable bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, invite you to refresh and re-energise for the next day's adventures in gorgeous Florence. 


The Florence Effect 

This charming home is perfectly positioned in Florence, a short walk from Santa Maria Novella station and within easy reach of the magnificent Duomo. This apartment is ideal for a group of friends or a large family wanting a comfortable base – it can accommodate up to eleven guests, with some sleeping on the mezzanine level or on a sofa bed. The apartment is bright, warm, and welcoming, with tall windows and simple, fuss-free decor. It’s the kind of home-from-home you long for in a bustling city like Florence. 

The Flower of Florence

Luxury awaits at this central Florence apartment. It’s a beautiful home ideal for a family or group of friends, with a large living and dining space at its heart. Best of all, this attractive space opens onto a balcony with views of Florence’s most iconic bridges. You’ll be right next to Ponte Amerigo Vespucci and a short walk from attractions including the Duomo and Piazza della Signoria, in an area rich in history and charm and blissfully without crowds. 

Renaissance Bliss

Shared Washing Machine

Shared Dryer

Early / Late Check-Out Available

Close to many of Florence's must-see landmarks, this apartment is a convenient base for friends and families. It's just a twenty-minute stroll from the red-domed Duomo, while a bevvy of local trattorias and other eateries are a short walk away. Back home, you'll find three balconies, each offering a sweet spot for morning coffees and alfresco aperitifs. The pared-back living area, complete with a sleek kitchen and Tuscan photographs, invites you to whip up your own version of Italian classics. There's also a shared laundry room here. Just keep in mind that two guests will sleep on sofa beds, making this best suited for shorter stays.

Florentine Gem

Umbrellas

Moments from Ponte Vecchio, this apartment places you in the heart of historic Florence. It’s also just a short walk from the iconic Palazzo Pitti, while restaurants, galleries and artisanal shops can all be found within easy reach. And while there’s plenty to explore in the neighbourhood, this home provides the perfect opportunity to switch off and unwind. There is a private terrace, a welcoming living area and a range of extra services – including grocery deliveries and a private chef. It’s worth noting the third bedroom has an additional trundle bed which can be arranged upon request. 

A Rare Flower 

Set within the atmospheric streets of the San Ambrogio district, this traditional Florentine apartment invites you to experience the immersive beauty of the city.  

Originally built in the late 19th century, the owners have sensitively restored this space into a private sanctuary – a quiet place to relax, unwind and savour the magic of Italian living. And stepping inside, you’ll find every detail sings with the artistic depth of Florence. From the elegant styling and antique furnishings to the gentle lighting, there’s a welcoming quality to this home that makes you want to settle in and stay. 

You’ll find the sitting room lends itself perfectly to relaxing mornings with a coffee and later with golden-hour aperitifs, while the bedrooms provide a wonderful sense of calm. And to ensure you experience the height of rejuvenation, the larger bathroom includes a hot tub. 

Outside, it’s just a ten–minute stroll to Piazza di Santa Croce and the Basilica while Ponte Vecchio is a twenty-minute walk away. And for an authentic taste of Florence, you’ll find a wonderful local market located next to this home.

The Artist's Collection

Overlooking the quiet Via di Sant'Elisabetta, this apartment showcases great views over the rooftops and across the city from the windows, giving just a hint of what Florence has to offer. Why not peer out at these vistas as you enjoy your first cappuccino of the day before you head out and explore the area?

The Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore – also known as the Duomo – is only a short two-minute walk away from your door, while the Piazza della Signoria is reachable in just five minutes on foot. If you want to take in some art and culture, then head to the Uffizi Gallery – also only five minutes away if you’re walking. 

Plus, make your trip truly memorable and book a personalised wine tasting for the opportunity to taste some of the best Italian labels, selected for you with pairings prepared by a chef. 

Follow Me to Florence

Walk to the Uffizi Gallery in a mere two minutes and admire the masterpieces when you stay at this cosy home. It’s the same distance to the beautiful Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchio, while the medieval splendour of the Ponte Vecchio is four minutes on foot. The stunning Duomo, on the other hand, is an eight-minute stroll. Or let your hosts arrange a Chianti wine tasting trip – they can also organise a personalised tasting itinerary where you can choose up to five glasses from the best Italian labels – well, that’s us sold.

Back at this apartment, have a rest after all that sightseeing (or wine tasting) in the pretty bedroom with its calming grey hues and whitewashed beams. Later whip up a tagliatelle funghi porcini e tartufo in the modern kitchen and enjoy it with your favourite wine. This home is an ideal Florence bolthole for a couple or solo traveller.


A Touch of Grey

A cosy apartment set right in the centre of historic Florence, this place is perfect for city explorers anxious to tour the many sights and sounds of this popular hotspot. In the most idyllic location, this home is situated just a few steps from Piazza San Marco, one of Florence’s most iconic landmarks, as well as a medley of authentic Italian restaurants. So, whether you’ve got a busy itinerary of sightseeing or you’re simply searching for the best Tagliatelle Funghi Porcini e Tartufo that Florence has to offer, this place has got you covered.

Inside, the decor is warm and cosy, creating a comfortable base to retreat to after an exciting day of exploring. Studded with retro appeal, the green, velvet–cushioned dining chairs serve the ideal spot to sip your morning coffee, meanwhile the patterned kitchen and bathroom tiles add a touch of character to the place. Knitted throws blanket the crisp white bed sheets and bold, abstract artworks illuminate the walls. We particularly love the chaise lounge. An antique that instantly draws the eye, this piece pays homage to Florence’s rich history.
