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.

Home truths
This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance.
Unfortunately this home is not suitable for children and infants.
The front door/hallway is quite narrow, and to get up to the apartment itself there are two flights of stairs. Then there are additional stairs to walk up to the main living space and another few for the lofted sleeping area, so this home may not suit those with limited mobility.
Guests three and four would be on a sofa bed in the living room – if you're looking for a home with ample space for socialising, we'd recommend this home for two guests only.
Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.

Local guide
About Santa Croce
Santa Croce is a trendy, architecturally impressive neighbourhood that’s less busy than the Duomo or San Marco districts, but still in the heart of Florence. Home to the eponymous basilica, and the Casa Buonarroti museum, it’s located in the eastern part of Florence’s historic centre. The largest crowds have thinned out by this point, but if you stay here, you're still close enough to explore the whole city on foot....
