In the historic San Lorenzo district, this cosy apartment is a great choice for work trips or weekend breaks in the city. You can expect to hear some outside noise due to the central location, and we recommend packing light as storage and space are tight. The kitchenette is small with a stove but no oven, but you'll have your pick of Florence's restaurants right on your doorstep. Public transport is close by for traversing the city, and famous hotspots like the Basilica di Santa Maria Novella and Piazza San Lorenzo are just minutes away on foot.

Florian's Lullaby

Couples seeking a rosy getaway in the romantic city of Florence – this is the home for you. Sitting in a city-centre building dating back to 1470, the elegant apartment boasts 180-degree views of the historic city. Terracotta-tiled floors and wood-beamed ceilings bring a traditional feel – while the one-room space is compact in size, it's packed with character.

You can see the iconic dome of the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore without leaving your apartment. Wake up, roll open your blinds and take in the unbeatable vista as you enjoy a leisurely breakfast. With windows on both ends of the room, sunlight streams and creates a bright, feel-good ambience.

If you want to view the Cathedral up close, you'll only have to walk twelve minutes to reach its entrance. Florence's best sights are just moments away from here, including the iconic Uffizi Gallery and the Basilica di Santa Croce di Firenze. End your evening with a riverside meal before heading home to recharge for another action-packed day.


Maggio Romance

Offering up unforgettable views of the historic Palazzo Vecchio right outside your window, there's no mistaking the location of this Florence stunner. Hit the buzzy streets below to discover all the must-see sights, with countless bars and restaurants to dive into along the way. Inside the home, the interiors are as elegant as they come, and the dining area is a lovely spot to take in the bustle of the pedestrianised piazza below. However, you needn't worry about street noise when it's time to lay your head. The bedroom is set back from the square, so it feels surprisingly quiet.

Florence's Glory

What better way to enjoy a stay in Florence than staying in a historic palazzo built for a noble family. Once the Branchi di Leonbianco’s administration building, this place still holds the charm of 19th century Florence within its walls. Think faded fresco ceilings and a rich palette of midnight and taupe. This studio apartment may be small, but it’s undeniably plush, with tufted velvet chairs at the table for two, and an inviting sofa for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. The kitchenette in raven-black has everything you need to whip up a quick meal.

But there are plenty of restaurants, cafés and bars in the streets around you. You’re in the heart of Florence here, a stone’s throw from the museums of Piazza San Marco and the world-famous  Accademia Gallery. A twelve-minute walk sees you in the beating historic heart of Florence, the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore.

Faded Frescoes

Florence’s stunning Duomo and Accademia Gallery (home to Michaelangelo’s David) are both less than five minutes on foot from this incredibly central apartment. Further afield (but not that much), the Uffizi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio are both less than a ten-minute stroll. So you see this calm and cultured apartment really does put all of Florence at your fingertips. Stepping across the threshold, it’s a soothing mix of white, beige and soft rose-pink inside. The open-plan living, dining room and kitchen lends itself to social evenings over a glass of wine, perhaps shared at the dining table for four. Shining wooden floors add a touch of class and natural light floods in from big windows. Housed within a building of services apartment, you get all the independence of self-catering with the little luxuries of a hotel – staff on hand to answer any questions and additional extras like cookery classes and grocery deliveries if you wish. 

Panna Cotta

You'll be off to a flying start exploring the swoon-worthy streets of Florence with a stay at this loft-style apartment. Located slap bang in the middle of the historic centre with the mighty Basilica di San Lorenzo as your neighbour, settings don't come much better than this.
 
Delve into the city's romantic, winding stadas to discover renaissance delights at every turn, starting just around the corner at Brunelleschi's emblematic red cathedral dome on Piazza del Duomo (a five-minute stroll). When thoughts turn to food (and a glass of something crisp), dive into the countless trattorias and buzzy bars dotted around the streets to feast on Tuscan classic cuisine. And if you fancy a spot of shopping, one of the city's oldest open-air markets is right outside your door.
 
When it's finally time to rest up back at home, the galleried open concept living area inside this sleek apartment makes quite the first impression, with natural daylight flooding through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
 
An excellent choice for a couple or single traveller, the bedroom is perched on a mezzanine level with a smart, glass partition allowing you to make the most of those views of Basilica di San Lorenzo seen right through your window. Best savoured from bed with a freshly brewed coffee, we say. 

You've Got the Love

Combining contemporary comfort with classic Tuscan charm, this cosy apartment is the perfect base from which to discover the very best of Florence. Inside, it’s all wood-beamed ceilings and terracotta tiles. There’s an open-plan living space with a sleek kitchenette for throwing together Caprese salads at lunchtime and two Barcelona-style chairs for relaxing with a glass of Chianti in the evening.

Catch up on your emails or plan your itinerary at the handy writing desk, then throw on your sunhat and explore the city. The famous red dome of the Santa Maria del Fiore cathedral is around a five-minute walk from your doorstep and the Uffizi Gallery is just a short stroll away. When it comes to dining options, your abode is surrounded by pizzerias, restaurants and laidback trattorias, so you certainly won’t go hungry here. 

Firenze Fancy

Take things easy on one of two gorgeous balconies belonging to this dream of an apartment a short walk from central Florence. With views across the rooftops to the green hills, it's just about 50 metres from Ponte Viejo and Piazza Pitti.

A romantic retreat for two at the top of a traditional building, it's bright, neatly laid out and super comfortable. In the summer months, all you'll need is the small but practical kitchen, the outdoor dining table – shaded from the sun with an awning – and the squashy outdoor corner sofa. Grab some fresh bread, olives and a glass of something chilled, and watch the sun go down over this historic city.

Aria to a Bird

Imagine staying in the very heart of the beautiful city of Florence, with all its Renaissance glory at your doorstep – that’s exactly what awaits you at this cosy apartment, and what’s more, you’ll be able to admire the breathtaking panorama of the city from your own private rooftop terrace. 

While there are quite a few steps to climb before you reach your pad, it’ll be worth it. Enter to be greeted by a bright and elegant open-plan living room, with plush furnishings and plenty of old-school charm. Lounge about on the comfy sofa and enjoy delicious meals at the dining area table – you can easily put together quick suppers in the kitchen area, although there is certainly no shortage of great dining options at your disposal, right outside your front door. 

As the sun begins to set over the terracotta rooftops, head up to the terrace and prepare yourself for a spectacular sight. As the lights begin to come up, illuminating the Duomo and the surrounding buildings, this really is the best spot to be. 

For a night of restful sleep look no further than the luxurious bedroom, with a comfy bed carrying the promise of sweet dreams. Welcome a new day with a cup of freshly brewed Italian coffee, planning your excursions. From this prime location you’ll be able to easily walk to all the iconic sights– just step outside and let this magical city take you where it may. 

Duomo Dreams 

Walk to the Uffizi Gallery in a mere two minutes and admire the masterpieces when you stay at this cosy home. It’s the same distance to the beautiful Piazza della Signoria and Palazzo Vecchio, while the medieval splendour of the Ponte Vecchio is four minutes on foot. The stunning Duomo, on the other hand, is an eight-minute stroll. Or let your hosts arrange a Chianti wine tasting trip – they can also organise a personalised tasting itinerary where you can choose up to five glasses from the best Italian labels – well, that’s us sold.

Back at this apartment, have a rest after all that sightseeing (or wine tasting) in the pretty bedroom with its calming grey hues and whitewashed beams. Later whip up a tagliatelle funghi porcini e tartufo in the modern kitchen and enjoy it with your favourite wine. This home is an ideal Florence bolthole for a couple or solo traveller.


A Touch of Grey

Leave no corner of Florence's romantic streets unturned with a stay at this modern loft-style apartment, set right in the beating heart of the historic centre.
 
Lose yourself within its narrow, winding streets leading to piazzas filled with architectural masterpieces and Renaissance statues around practically every corner. And no visit to Florence is complete without a selfie outside (and a tour inside) of Brunelleschi's mighty red cathedral dome on Piazza del Duomo (a mere five-minute walk), and even closer,  the marble-clad Basilica di San Lorenzo (a one-minute stroll). 

When thoughts turn to food, take your pick from charming trattorias, buzzy bistros, hip cocktail bars, and everything else in between – it's all for the taking in this happening part of town. And if you fancy a spot of shopping, the city's oldest open-air market is right outside the door of this impressive period apartment building.
 
From the outside, this place could be straight out of the Renaissance. But step inside, and it's a different story, with sleek, contemporary interiors providing a refreshing contrast to the ornate grandeur in the streets below. Downstairs the slick, modern kitchen has everything you need to rustle up something to eat, and there's plenty of room to crash out in the living area. But it's upstairs, in the vast bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, impressing us the most. Fling the floor-to-ceiling windows wide and peer out over the awakening streets below with your morning coffee –⁠ it's everything you imagine Florence to be.

Portrait of a Girl

This Angiolieri 12th-century tower house is located in Firenze's Oltrarno neighbourhood and offers Arno River views (you’ll need to be prepared to climb the 82 steps to reach it). Whether you’ve come here to experience Florence’s Gothic and Renaissance architecture, famous cuisine, or world-renowned art galleries, you’ll find this charming apartment in this historic building has the perfect local ambience and location. Lovers of classic details, antique designs and historied homes will appreciate the decor here, while the views over Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, and Porto Rosso Tower are a winner for any guest.
