In the historic San Lorenzo district, this cosy apartment is a great choice for work trips or weekend breaks in the city. You can expect to hear some outside noise due to the central location, and we recommend packing light as storage and space are tight. The kitchenette is small with a stove but no oven, but you'll have your pick of Florence's restaurants right on your doorstep. Public transport is close by for traversing the city, and famous hotspots like the Basilica di Santa Maria Novella and Piazza San Lorenzo are just minutes away on foot.

In the heart of Florence, this two-storey apartment offers stunning views of the Palazzo Vecchio from the master bedroom. Step into the large living room, and you’ll discover an eclectic mix of old and new – the oil landscape painting behind the flat-screen TV probably sums it up best, but we also love details like the rotary phone and the plush armchairs. In the daytime, you and your friends will explore the historical sights before coming back to enjoy a meal cooked in the modern kitchen at the antique wooden dining table. Head up the glossy black tinted staircase, and you’ll discover a second comfy seating area and the two bedrooms – each packed full of character thanks to artwork and furnishing from different eras. The two bathrooms are a work of art themselves, with bright blue and green mosaic tiles that draw the eye.

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.

If you like exploring cities on foot, then this is the place for you. Nestled in the heart of the city, within walking distance of many of the main sights, this apartment is a glorious gateway to the wonders of Florence. 

The interior is a blend of modern style and traditional charm – think crisp white furnishings, terracotta tiles, and rustic wooden ceiling beams. You'll love whipping up your favourite pasta dishes in the kitchen, and gathering around the table to share food and stories of your adventures. And, the two bedrooms are soothing and tranquil, so you're guaranteed a peaceful night's sleep after a busy day exploring. 

From here, the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella are both just a short stroll away. After you've ticked them off your sightseeing list, you can stop off at one of the pretty piazzas for an espresso or some lunch as you admire the city's breathtaking architecture. And, if you cross the River Arno, you'll arrive at the Palazzo Pitti, the Renaissance royal palace with an impressive art collection. 

Fancy In Florence

Found in the breathtaking city of Florence, this home also captures beauty in an understated way. With exposed beams, a neutral colour palette that works perfectly alongside the gold elements, and a touch of rustic, this home feels welcoming and cosy. 

Spend evenings cooking fresh pasta in the open kitchen and dining space as you drink wine and talk about everything you got up to during the day. This might include little more than reading Dante Alighieri's poetry, but with so much to do on your doorstep, we encourage you to at least try to leave the comforts of this home behind. 

Take a walk through the Boboli Gardens – only ten minutes away – or see some of the most outstanding collections of ancient sculptures and paintings at the Uffizi Gallery. Find the majestic Church of Santa Maria del Carmine in the Piazza del Carmine three minutes away, and find a cafe for a midday coffee top-up. 

Eat as much gelato, pizza, pasta and gnocchi as you can manage before coming back for a bit of R&R.

This apartment is on the third floor of a historically important palazzo in Florence. It’s perfectly located for exploring the city, with most of the main attractions a ten-fifteen-minute walk away, including Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi. The Basilica of Santa Croce is a few steps away, and the apartment boasts spectacular views of Florentine rooftops. The apartment is full of historic charm – we love the frescoed ceilings – and has plenty of space for all twelve guests to spend time together. 

Terracotta Embrace

Surrounded by historic buildings and just a stone’s throw from one of the city’s most beautiful basilicas, this apartment in Santa Croce puts you in an ideal position to experience the best of Florence’s iconic sights.
 
Pared-back yet boasting plenty of Old World charm with its beamed ceilings and wood floors, this home has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kick back on the sofa with a glass of locally-bought Italian wine or sit down to a meal at the dining table as the light pours in through the tall windows. The two bedrooms – one of which is on the mezzanine floor – are stylishly minimalist offering the perfect canvas for a restful night’s sleep and leaving you rested and ready for another exciting day of sightseeing. 
 
Speaking of exploring, you’ve got plenty to see within easy walking distance, including the Basilica of Santa Croce (four minutes), Piazza della Signoria (ten minutes), the Uffizi Gallery (also ten minutes) and the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore (fifteen minutes).

Offering up unforgettable views of the historic Palazzo Vecchio right outside your window, there's no mistaking the location of this Florence stunner. Hit the buzzy streets below to discover all the must-see sights, with countless bars and restaurants to dive into along the way. Inside the home, the interiors are as elegant as they come, and the dining area is a lovely spot to take in the bustle of the pedestrianised piazza below. However, you needn't worry about street noise when it's time to lay your head. The bedroom is set back from the square, so it feels surprisingly quiet.

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.

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.

Bright and homely, this charming Florentine apartment is perfect for couples or a small family on a getaway in the city. There’s no lift here, as expected in a beautiful Liberty-style building, so you’ll need to climb stairs to reach the home. Still, it’s a small price to pay for the location. We love the second bedroom, accessed via a spiral staircase and oozing tranquillity – just watch your head on those sloping ceilings and beams. And when you’re ready to explore, many major sightseeing spots are within walking distance, while the Belfiore tram stop is nearby for jaunts further afield.

Central and attractive, this apartment is a wonderful choice of home-from-home in Florence. Style-wise, it’s simple and fuss-free, a calm and relaxing space to return to after busy days in the city. With six guests staying here, two will sleep on a sofa bed in the living and dining space – so for more space for socialising, we’d stick to a maximum guest count of four. The apartment looks out over Mercato Centrale, a fabulous meeting spot with restaurants, local eateries, and fruit and veg sellers. You’ll also be a short walk from the Duomo and only 600 metres from Santa Maria Novella station.
