Located directly opposite Piazza and Palazzo Pitti and just steps away from the storied Ponte Vecchio, a medieval stone bridge crossing the River Arno where merchants sell their wares just as they did centuries ago, our apartment offers an unmatched location in the center of Florence. Several of the flat’s windows offer impressive views of the Palazzo Pitti, a magnificent palace that the Medici’s called home during the Renaissance and which now houses a huge collection of important art and paintings. Step out on to the terrace and take advantage of your front seat views of the majestic building whilst you sip a glass of local wine. Nearby, you’ll also find Piazza della Signoria, the Bargello, Santa Croce, the Duomo, and the world-renowned Uffizi Gallery, richly endowed with some of the world’s best works of art. Florence is an open-air museum and the apartment is right in the centre of it.
Florence’s historical centre is a Restricted Traffic Zone. We recommend clients coming to Florence to not rent a car or if you do have a car, to leave it parked in a private garage during your stay (we can provide more information on this if required). Florence city centre is quite small and the majority of the streets are either complicated one way systems or for pedestrians only, and therefore the best way of exploring the city is by foot! If you wish to visit other areas of Tuscany or if you need assistance with getting from the train station or airport.
This apartment has been thoroughly and sensitively renovated and restored giving one an instant sense of its history but at the same time presenting the very best in modern convenience and amenities.
We were very impressed by the rooms which are bright and spacious with high ceilings and awash with light from the huge windows facing the Pitti Palace. The incredible painted ceilings are magnificent and the effort made to preserve the remnants of the frescoed walls was beautifully done. You can’t help but feel a connection to the history of the place.
The apartment has every modern feature : there are even hidden Bluetooth speakers in every room! Sooo cool!!
The marble bathrooms are spacious and worthy of any 5 star hotel and chromotherapy is available in every one of them!
The fully equipped kitchen is one that any professional chef would envy.
Modern comforts abound including superb cooking facilities, American style fridge freezer with ice dispenser and Nespresso coffee machine, high speed WiFi, office with printer/scanner, LCD Smart TVs in each room, high spec sound system and LED ambient lighting in each bathroom for a complete relaxing or invigorating experience.
