Florence / Central Florence area
Florence, the capital of Italian Renaissance, rich of artistic treasures is famous all over the world for its monuments, museums and history. Florence is also the perfect starting point for excursions in the marvellous Tuscan countryside.
Our apartment is ideally located in a very convenient area of the centre of Florence because it's just a 15 minutes walk away from the S. Maria del Fiore Cathedral and from S. Maria Novella central train station. Guests can arrive at the station with their luggage and reach the apartment without taking any cab or bus. From the train station our guests can get buses or train to comfortable reach (without driving) all the most important towns of art in Tuscany (Siena, Lucca, Pisa, Arezzo).
On the other hand the apartment is also suitable for people who prefer to arrive by car as they can park at Parterre underground parking and reach our apartment in only 15 minutes walking.
The downtown location, the easiness to reach it, the possibility of parking nearby, make this apartment the perfect place to visit Florence and surroundings.
We recommend you to have a trip at Fiesole, on the hills above Florence (about 20 minutes by bus) and at Piazzale Michelangelo from which you can admire a great view over the town.
Our area is also served by several bus lines connecting to Piazza Duomo, Piazza della Signoria and the Uffizi Gallery but you don’t really need to take a bus as all the major tourist attractions can be easily reached on foot
The town is also known for its exceptional cuisine, characteristic restaurants, ice-cream’s, wine bars, elegant shops, artistic workshops and traditional markets. The S. Lorenzo Central Market is the most interesting and characteristic place to buy food in Florence and it is a tourist attraction itself. Don’t miss it!
Living in the area where our apartment is located will make you feel and breath the typical Florentine life style and atmosphere. You can find all the shops you need and many restaurants and bars where local Florentines go for lunch and dinners
The Mediterranean climate makes Florence have mild winter temperature so it worth’s to be visited in every season. Period from half November to beginning of March (except Christmas time) is particularly suitable for avoiding cheque at museums and monuments entrance.
In summertime, there are several public swimming pools open and the Versilia beach is 1 hour away (reachable also by train or bus) We also suggest you to visit the Boboli garden, also ideal for relaxing and refreshing walks. A walk along the Arno river is also a nice and relaxing experience.

Guestbook for *****
Thank you so much for a wonderful time spent in Florence, we did enjoy ourselves immensley. We shopped at the Lorenzo Market and bought some risotto, Chicken wrapped in proscuitto, insalata, vino and sat outside in the courtyard and had a fantastic dinner. Your apartment was so nice and close to all the main sights. Next time we visit Firenze, we will contact you.. Thank you again (Eric and Lori Boehk- UK) "We loved our stay in this apartment. It had every amenity we needed and was very clean and it is located in a typical Florentine apartment block so we were actually living alongside the locals. One further advantage is that it was a ground floor apartment. It was a wonderful location. We were very close to a supermarket and cafes and within walking distance of every attraction in Florence. It was a 15 minute walk from the train station and a 10 minute walk from a market and a 15 minute walk to the Duomo. We would highly recommend this apartment and we will certainly return. " Lynne Turner (Australia – Febr 2008)
We had a lovely stay at the apartment in Florence, it really is gorgeous - and we loved sitting out in the terrace / courtyard, it was lovely! (Lesley Strachan-UK)
Thank you for allowing us to rent your apartment, and a special thanks to Giulia and Lorenzo for their help and (great) advice. I hope we left everything in a good order and if we return to Florence I'll definitely think of you (David Haywood, UK)
