In the heart of Florence's trendy Oltrarno neighbourhood, this charming apartment is ideal for friends and families. Located on the top floor, both bedrooms have their own en-suites and there's a small balcony with space to stand out and enjoy the fresh air. The central location means you can expect some outside noise and one of the bathrooms is very small, but you'll have everything you need for a comfortable stay and the location is great for sightseeing. You'll be right across the road from the beautiful Palazzo Pitti and Boboli Gardens, and public transport is nearby for getting around.

Service animals may be welcome here, but speak to your host about this before booking – regular pets aren't permitted.
This home is in an apartment building in a central location, so you can expect to hear some outside noise during your stay.
Some cleaning and maintenance are provided here by your host.
One of the bathrooms in this home is very small. That said, it has everything you need to get ready for the day.
The small balcony in one of the bedrooms has space to stand out but not to sit, and overlooks surrounding buildings so the views might not be the most inspiring.
