About this property
Apartment in a 13th Century palace in the heart of Florence
Unusual, romantic apartment full of atmosphere in one of Florence's oldest areas - that once occupied by the Roman amphitheatre. Indeed, the street takes its name from one of the principal entrances into the arena. Just 50m from the church of Santa Croce Church, 200m from Piazza Signoria, 100m from Piazza del Duomo, 200m from the Uffizzi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio, and 10m from Vivoli, Florence's best known ice cream parlour!! The apartment, on the first floor of this antique palazzo, is accessed via a flight of 24 steps (no elevator). It offers 2 double bedrooms (one with a French bed - 140x200 cm ), which look onto the open plan sitting room area, a fully appointed kitchen, a marble dining table for 6. It is tastefully furnished with the owner's personal belongings and is equipped with a TV, DVD and CD player, stereo, WI-FI, dishwasher, washing-machine, air cond Just walking through the central courtyard of this beautiful Palazzo is a journey to the heart of historic Florence. Centrally located, it is perfect for sight seeing, shopping and food markets, discovering cosy trattorie and bars, as well as artists' and artisans' ateliers. Good for 2 up to 4 guests ( 5 guests on request )

Just a great flat: clean, great communication and check in, and fantastic area. We love this place and Diego was a terrific help with tv and cleaning the flat.
Host was great - we had some issues with a missed train and they were very helpful. Apartment is as advertised and was quiet and comfortable. Location is fantastic. Would stay again.
Very comfortable stay. Located on a nice quiet side street, but just a few minutes walk to all that Florence has to offer. We enjoyed the owners eclectic and interesting design. We would highly recommend this property.
We loved our time here!! Vivoli is right around the corner (coffee, gelato… or both with an affogato) and the Osteria Cafe Italiano (brick oven wood fired pizza) is just a little farther down. Both were excellent. We enjoyed the fact we were just off the main path, but only a block or so from the Basilica of Santa Croce and so many of the sites we wanted to see were within walking distance. Check in was easy and Deigo was very helpful and so willing to answer any questions or address any needs we had. Highly recommend.
We absolutely loved this place. It was just a few minute walk to town but far enough away that it was super loud at night. We were greeted at the front door and given a tour which was awesome! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a weekend getaway in Florence!
We loved our stay in Florence. The apartment is as pictured on the listing. Easy to walk to so much in Florence but on a quiet street away from the noise. Highly recommend!!
It resulted in an effortless vacation. A nice place to recoup after a day of walking and discovering Florence. Fabrizzio was a very helpful owner.

Our group of 3 had a wonderful stay at this quirky, fun property. The place is very centrally located and is a short walk to sights and food in Florence. The owner was excellent with communication and met us to show us how to get in and assist us with getting settled. The complimentary bottle of Chianti was a very thoughtful touch. Would definitely stay here again.
It's a short walk to all the major sites and walkable to the Boboli Gardens and PItti Palace and other areas across the river. The apartment is truly unique, located in an ancient building and filled with the owner's lifetime of collections. Quiet, charming, and evocative.
Clean, comfortable apartment within walking distance of all the main attractions in Florence. The owner made us feel welcome. The washing machine was a lifesaver for our long journey!
Assisi was the favorite part of our trip to Italy. The apartment was in a great location and had enough space and beds for all of us and our stuff. The owner even helped us find a place to park the car and shuttled us back and forth to the spot from the apartment. Thank you!!
Had a wonderful stay with 4 adults! Felt like I was immersedwelcoming us back! in the European lifestyle! Great bathroom, comfortable beds, unique awesome decor! The aircintioning was the best in the extreme temperatures! Proximity to everything was excellent! Loved walking all over to find out home
Great location for walking to the Dome/ cathedral, Ponte Vecchio and all the piazza's inbetween! Enjoyed the artifacts and museum-like feel the palace offered. Clean and comfortable! Thank you for an awesome experience.
