Delivering knockout vistas of Florence's rooftops and the mighty Duomo from nearly every room, we've fallen hard for this central bolthole. Each light-filled bedroom is as elegant as the next, though they are short on floor and storage space, so we recommend packing lightly. It's also worth noting at full occupancy, it could be a squeeze to all kick back on the sofa, and while the kitchen is well-equipped, it's short on prepping space. It's the perfect excuse to eat out instead, and luckily, you're an olive stone's throw from countless traditional trattorias for all the Tuscan classics.

This elegant apartment boasts an enviable location just 400 metres from Piazza del Duomo. Best of all, you can admire stunning views of the Duomo without even leaving the apartment. In addition to offering views of one of Florence’s most iconic sights, this apartment is stylish and attractive. It’s bright and welcoming and is equipped with everything you might need for your city break – though some guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed. Still, for such a comfortable home-from-home and this unbeatable location, that’s an easy sacrifice to make.

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.

This Florentine apartment has earned a place in our collection for it’s standout central location. In the heart of the Sant'Ambrogio district, you’re just a stroll away from some of Florence’s must-see attractions, such as Duomo di Firenze and Ponte Vecchio. And if that’s not enough, you’ll also have a local market and an array of restaurants close by. At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the lounge area so it won’t be the most private of spaces, but with a breakfast bar and dining table in the mix, we think there’s enough room for everyone.

Nice to haves

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

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.

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.

This apartment boasts an enviable position in Florence in an historic palazzo in Piazza Santa Croce. You can look forward to frescoed walls, the original 16th-century wood beam ceiling, high ceilings, and tall windows that look out over a private courtyard. Staying here, you’ll get a real taste of the Florence of the past – and you’ll be perfectly placed to explore the city. Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria, and the Duomo are a short walk away. What more could you ask for? 

The Rose of Florence

Situated just a five-minute walk from the famed Duomo in the heart of Florence, this traditional Italian loft with views of Brunelleschi’s Cupola and Giotto’s Bell Tower offers an aura of true historic wonder. While the living area has limited space, the exposed timber ceilings, large windows, and modern fixtures provide a balance of traditional style with modernity and ease. While the nearby restaurants and galleries are sure to take up most of your time, the fully equipped kitchen and en-suite master bedroom will help ensure a sense of autonomy and privacy throughout your stay.

Aloft in Florence

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). 


Portamento

Juicer

Balcony

Marrying contemporary design with Italian flair, this apartment is a stylish base in the heart of Florence. The living space boasts modern artwork and a small kitchen. That said, with delicious eateries nearby, dining out will likely be on the cards. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms ensure there's plenty of privacy, too. However, the location is what makes this place a real star. A stroll in one direction will take you to Piazza della Signoria and the Uffizi Galleries. Head the opposite way to see the striking Basilica di Santa Croce and historic Teatro Verdi. Exploring on foot is a breeze here – it's perfect for those keen in the centre of the action.

Santa Croce Style

Immerse yourself in Florence’s rich history and culture at this elegant apartment located in the historic Spinelli Palace. We love the elegant living space with its grand fireplace (two people will be sleeping on a sofa bed in this room at full occupancy). One of the bedrooms has a four-poster bed to relax in too. Just a short stroll away, you'll find iconic landmarks like the Uffizi Gallery and the Duomo. Even nearer, the magnificent Piazza Santa Croce and the Basilica are right on your doorstep. 

Florentine Renaissance

Desk / Workplace

On a typical street, lined with period buildings, this charming loft home is a real retreat from the city. Comfortable and homey, it's just a short walk from all the major attractions, with the Basilica of Santa Croce just steps away from its door.

Once you've climbed the stairs (and there are a few to deal with here), you'll be rewarded with a beautifully modernised apartment with ancient beamed ceilings and a combination of period and contemporary styling. The open-plan living space has twin windows overlooking the street, and you'll have everything you need to cook at home and eat at the dining table. Perfect for a couple or a solo traveller, but also offering a sofa bed to increase the guest count, we particularly love the olive green bedroom. 

Florence with Love

Single-Level Home

Not many people have the privilege of saying that their local church dates back to the late thirteenth century and is one of the largest such buildings in the world, but you can include yourself in this number if you stay in this apartment five minutes' walk from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.

Aside from the illustrious neighbour, there's plenty to like about this home on the first floor of a historic building. The high ceilings, tall windows and burnt yellow walls lean into the city's architectural heritage, while the minimalist kitchen and sleek bathrooms belong well and truly in the 21st century. As well as this pleasant interior which is generous when it comes to space, the address also benefits from two terraces, one of which overlooks a peaceful garden.

There are plenty of other notable attractions in the local area, including Bargello National Museum and Accademia Gallery, which can both be reached in ten minutes on foot. You're well served by restaurants and bars in the surrounding streets, as well.

Stay in the cradle of Italy's art scene at this enchanting, plant-filled apartment. All of Florence's most romantic spots are just moments away, from the Gothic-style Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore to the Uffizi Gallery's collection of Renaissance masterpieces. Walk the narrow cobbled streets and feast your eyes on the city's plethora of architectural achievements, knowing that when you tire of landmark-hopping, your characterful retreat awaits.

The two-bedroom home makes a strong case for eclectic decor – your hosts have used a heavy hand when placing plants and paintings around the apartment. The resulting space carries oodles of charm, with plenty to look at and feel inspired by before you've even delved into Florence's art world. The high ceilings and arched doorways give it a feeling of grandeur that's rare in the hub of a city. On the sun-soaked balcony, you can enjoy a pocket of peace in this cosmopolitan destination as you sip your morning espresso.

Artist's Abode

The location of this apartment is impressive. It’s a stone’s throw from the Arno and a short stroll from the Uffizi Gallery, with major attractions like Piazza della Signoria ten minutes away on foot. You’ll have countless restaurants and cafes nearby and you’ll also have a well-equipped kitchen, should you prefer to dine in. The apartment features frescoed ceilings but is otherwise simple in style. It’s a comfortable base that’s perfectly positioned for visiting Florence.

This apartment boasts an unbeatable location in Florence, overlooking Piazza Santa Croce and boasting views of San Minato al Monte from the kitchen. It’s a traditional Italian home so you can expect heavy wooden furniture, artwork depicting Italy in the past, and tiled floors. The star of the show is undoubtedly the terrace, where you can sip cocktails as you take in the view. Seeing the sights is a breeze from this central setting – the Uffizi is a seven-minute walk and the Piazza del Duomo is only eight minutes away on foot. 

A Chorus of Titans

Balcony / Patio

This is one of ten plush apartments within a renovated 19th-century palazzo. It’s in the centre of Florence, just a few minutes’ stroll along the banks of the River Arno from the Ponte Vecchio. The Uffizi Gallery and Duomo are within easy walking distance too. Split over the second and third floor of the building, the open kitchen, living and dining room is on the lower level, facing the quiet of an internal courtyard. The upper level is dedicated to the huge main bedroom with a covered terrace overlooking the Corso dei Tintori.

Situated in the heart of Florence – this home is within walking distance of many of this beautiful city’s main attractions. Piazza Santa Croce is under a ten-minute stroll, while Mercato dei Ciompi is just a few minutes on foot. The Duomo, Uffizi, Piazza della Signoria, Ponte Vecchio and Palazzo Pitti are all easily reached too. Back at the apartment, take in the views down the street to Santa Croce. One thing to note is that at full capacity, two people will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living space below the mezzanine bedroom.

Tiles & Tapestries

Maintaining much of its old Florentine essence, this charming apartment invites you to unwind and experience the city in all of its shining glory. Achingly beautiful interiors greet you upon arrival, with the typical elements of the historical building preserved and celebrated – you'll immediately notice the ornate fresco walls and cotto tiles, as well as the stone and pietra serena antrum of the doors. To top it off, you're also in prime position for sightseeing and exploring with the apartment's central location, just footsteps from the Basilica of Santa Croce. 

Return from a day spent ticking off your Florence bucket list, sinking into the plump sofa under the rustic reassurance of the wood beam ceiling. There's plenty of space to relax, with patterned rugs, ornaments, houseplants, and even your host's own paintings and sculptures dotted around the place, adding visual interest and plenty of home comfort. There's also an office space for those who'd like to get their own creative juices flowing, plus a fully-equipped, Florentine-style kitchen and two separate dining tables for a romantic dinner in. 

When it's time to head out, you're just a two-minute walk from Piazza della Signoria and the Uffizi, while Sant'Ambrogio, one of the oldest neighbourhoods in the city, is just ten minutes from your door on foot. And of course, you're surrounded by fabulous restaurants, bars, and cafes for when you're deciding on places to frequent come evening.

From the elegant rooms to the romantic aesthetic and range of extra services (including private chefs), every detail has been considered to bring ease to your city stay. Remote workers will also appreciate the dedicated desk space, while those in search of an Italian adventure will love this location. Nestled in the heart of Santa Croce, it’s a short stroll to the river, while galleries, shops and cafes are all within walking distance. 


Florentine Flair

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

It's hard not to be charmed by this apartment. Not only is the location excellent – Piazza Santa Croce is literally on your doorstep – but the historic building is bursting with character. Found in a palazzo formerly owned by Medici bankers, the design inside boasts 18th-century stucco, pastel paintings, and authentic frescoed ceilings. Whether you're waking up in the cosy bedrooms, enjoying an Italian dinner around the dining table, or breaking a sweat in the building's communal gym, you'll feel like you've stepped back in time. This apartment also connects to another in the building, making it ideal for larger groups.

Pastel Enchantment

In the heart of Santa Croce, this 19th-century Palazzo has been transformed into an immersive Florentine sanctuary. And located on its third floor, you’ll find this apartment provides the perfect spot to relax and unwind after a day of exploring. Spread across two levels, the rooms are elegant, family-friendly and well-suited to remote workers. Enjoy the views from the sitting room, savour the comfort of home cooking or walk to a nearby restaurant. You’ll also find the Uffizi Gallery and the river are within easy reach.

The Crimson Rose

History lovers should consider this elegant apartment, set in a 19th-century palazzo. The Santa Croce district puts famous landmarks like the Uffizi Gallery just a stone's throw away, as well as a variety of places to eat and drink. Though the lift doesn't quite reach the fourth floor, this home provides a thoughtful space with a desk for business travellers, and roomy bathrooms for relaxing soaks. After a busy day of Florentine sightseeing, the terrace is a lovely spot to retreat to.

The Little Queen

Hot Tub

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.

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

In the heart of Florence, this apartment makes a characterful and central base. Piazza Santa Croce is on your doorstep, putting you a short walk away from the city's famous landmarks, gourmet eateries, and fashionable shops. It's a fantastic option for those who love a bit of history. The apartment is found in a 17th-century palazzo once owned by Medici bankers – expect frescoed facades, wooden beams, and original shuttered windows offering views of the Basilica of Santa Croce. It's not all old-world charm, though. The bathrooms are modern, the kitchen is well-equipped to rustle up antipasti, and there's a shared gym in the building ideal for morning workouts.

Florentine Frescoes

In the heart of Florence, this apartment puts you within walking distance of the city's many famous landmarks. Among them are the Duomo (ten minutes on foot), Uffizi Gallery (a fifteen-minute walk) and Ponte Vecchio (also reachable in fifteen minutes) – not to mention a bevvy of shops and restaurants. Due to its ground-floor position, there's little natural light here. But we can overlook that since there's something better – a private courtyard garden. Outdoor space is rare in this postcode, making it the perfect spot for post-sightseeing aperitifs. As the living area has a sofa bed, we recommend this pad for short trips, especially if you're a group of six.

Florence Belle

Located in a 19th-century Palazzo in the bustling Santa Croce neighbourhood, this apartment is a comfortable bolthole for families, friends or couples. While the place is modern, you’ll notice nods to the building’s history in the ceiling frescoes. There is a kitchen here, but we think it’s better suited for light meals. If you’d prefer something more substantial, there are restaurants on the doorstep. Plus, the famous Uffizi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio are a short walk away. 

Rose of Florence

This charming apartment is located in a 19th-century palazzo in the Santa Croce district of Florence. Though it’s a little traditional, we think it fits its surroundings, and more importantly, you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable stay. With both bedrooms being en-suites, it’s a great place for sharing with family or friends, while also maintaining your privacy. Thanks to the home’s central location, you’re near the Uffizi Gallery and plenty of small shops, cafes, and restaurants. If you’re looking to accommodate a larger group, there are more apartments in this building which you may be able to rent together. 

Piazza Beat

Ideal for large groups, this home comprises two combined apartments. There’s plenty of space, with two living and dining rooms, three kitchens, and a spectacular roof terrace. You can soak up the sun on the terrace while drinking in stunning 360º views of Florence. This home is in the Santa Croce district, a ten-minute walk from the iconic Duomo, and with restaurants, trattorias, and shops within easy reach. You’ll also be just a few steps from the Sant’Ambrogio market, where you can stock up on fresh produce and top-notch ingredients.

Look forward to 5-metre-high frescoed ceilings, historic paintings, and parquet flooring. Two living rooms and a separate dining room mean you’ll have all the space you need, though at full occupancy, four guests will share bedroom one, with two sleeping on the mezzanine level. The apartment is just five minutes from iconic Ponte Vecchio and a fifteen-minute walk from the Duomo. 

Vecchio Vibes

Stay in the heart of romantic Florence, steps from Piazza dei Ciompi, Piazza Santa Croce, and more. If a central location is your priority, then this apartment is an excellent choice. It’s not the cosiest space, with a bare living area lacking in homeliness. However, this won’t bother those visiting Florence on a city break, where sightseeing and eating in amazing restaurants take up most of your time. If you do eat at home, you’ll notice the dining table in the hallway – it’s a little quirky, but we’re fans of unique touches. Especially the tiled floors. The charming courtyard is a fantastic touch, too.

Florence's Dream

Workplace

Seamlessly blending traditional and contemporary styles, this apartment promises a serene stay in the heart of the Sante Croce district. We love the parquet flooring and murals, adding so much character to the home, while the balcony is a cosy spot for an evening aperitif as you raise a toast to your holiday. Locally, you can walk to the Duomo in ten minutes, and with eateries lining the surrounding streets, dining out on authentic Italian food is sure to be on the menu. 

Florentine Treasure

With its tall ceilings decorated in intricate frescoes and vibrant Santa Croce location, this plush apartment guarantees a stay to remember. Florence’s most famous sights, including the Uffizi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio, are within walking distance, and there are bus stops close by for trips further afield. There’s a small balcony for alfresco snacks and quality home comforts to make your stay as stress-free as possible. If you’d like to stay as a larger group, this place can be booked alongside nine other residences in the building.

The Lady's Rest

Located in the heart of Florence, this apartment offers a great getaway to explore this beautiful city. Though its decor is a little traditional, it comes with plenty of modern amenities for a comfortable stay. With all bedrooms being en-suites, it’s a great place to share with family or friends while at the same time maintaining some privacy. Thanks to its central location, it’s near plenty of shops, cafes, and restaurants, as well as famous sights such as the Basilica di Santa Croce di Firenze and the Piazza della Signoria. 

The Palace Retreat

History buffs will adore this characterful apartment. It's situated in a 17th-century palazzo once owned by Medici bankers, putting Piazza Santa Croce on your doorstep. The facade is covered in frescoes, while the interior bursts with old-world charm. We can't get enough of the views – pour yourself a glass of wine, pull up a chair, and people-watch out of the original windows until your heart's content. The building also has a shared gym, though we reckon most of your exercise will come from exploring Florence on foot. All the major landmarks are within walking distance, as are shops and eateries.

Piazza Smile

Enjoying a privileged position right on the banks of the River Arno, this handsome apartment is just the ticket for those looking for a sunny, relaxing stay. 
 
Inside, Old World charm creates an instantly inviting welcome in the grand living area with a plethora of antiques and classical-style furnishings, as well as a beautiful mezzanine library – the ideal spot to stow yourself away for some quiet reading. Those looking to work from home will find plenty of desk spaces, including in the elegant bedrooms with their river views.
 
Our favourite spot, however, is the private terrace overlooking the Arno, the San Niccolò district and the Oltrarno hills. Start your mornings here over coffee while listening to the river’s whispers or end evenings with a spritz at sundown before discovering the local dining scene. 
 
Speaking of exploring, you're spoilt for choice when it comes to cultural hotspots nearby with the Uffizi Gallery a seven-minute walk, Ponte Vecchio a nine-minute stroll and the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore thirteen minutes away on foot. 


Arno Poetry

A stay in Florence wouldn’t be complete without fine dining and fantastic wines every evening, along with world-class galleries and historical intrigue every day. Speaking of history, this home – just a three-minute walk from the Basilica of Santa Croce – might be of interest to those with a little morbid curiosity. 

As you arrive at its imposing entrance, it has a gothic look with dark stone facade and a grand front door painted black. Any ideas what it used to be? For centuries, this building was the official residence of the city’s executioners, known as Casa del Boia. However, this modern apartment is now a far cry from its past, offering a fresh and modern vibe in the heart of this ancient city. 

We love the bright green velvet sofa, glossy black coffee table, and jungle-print wall hanging in the lounge. They might not be the traditional Italian features you’d expect, which is exactly what makes this home so unique. For a similar surprise, head into one of the bathrooms. With vibrant orange wallpaper featuring a flamingo print all over, these wonderfully unexpected and joyful interiors can certainly make up for its former residents.
