Wow, were the words we uttered when we walked into the living room of this home and saw the stunning views of the Ponte Vecchio, the Uffizi Gallery and River Arno. The vistas are even better from the balcony – it's the perfect place to enjoy a glass of wine and the Florentine skyline. Housed in a beautiful building, this recently renovated, elegant apartment is a lovely place to spend time in with its designer sofa, marble fireplace and gorgeous herringbone patterned wood floors.

If you want to explore what you can see from this home, it's around a thirty-second stroll to Ponte Vecchio, while the Uffizi Gallery is a four-minute walk. It's the same walking distance to Palazzo Pitti, one of Florence's largest architectural monuments. Other attractions nearby include the Strozzi Palace, which is eight minutes on foot. This home is ideal for two couples, a group of friends or a family wanting to be within walking distance of this glorious city's treasures.

This apartment is housed in a Renaissance tower in the heart of Florence, just 50 metres from Piazza della Signoria. The apartment is simple in style, comfortable without being fussy. There's space to gather together in the open-plan living space and kitchen, though with so many restaurants nearby, you won't need to cook unless you really want to. The central location is the star of the show here, putting you within walking distance of the Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery, as well as boutiques and gelaterias. 

Florentine Modern

Private Parking

Just four minutes from the Ponte Vecchio on foot, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. It sits along a steep, cobbled street in the heart of Florence's historic centre and boasts proximity to all the main sights on foot. You couldn't ask for a better location, less than a twenty-minute stroll from the Duomo and the famous Piazzale Michelangelo viewpoint and even closer to the Pitti Palace's museums and gardens. 

The interior is warm and inviting, striking the perfect balance between authentic charm and contemporary comfort. We especially love the open-plan living space, primed for relaxation with a compact yet equipped kitchen, a large dining table, a cosy lounge and a majestic fireplace. Perched on the second floor, it feels delightfully peaceful despite its central location and offers beautiful views from its large shuttered windows. After a day of adventure, enjoy a glass of wine while admiring your scenic surroundings before slipping out for your reservation at one of the many eateries nearby.

Vecchio Vintage

Private Entrance

Imagine being able to look out at one of the world’s most famous bridges without having to wrestle against crowds of people for the best viewing spot. Being able to get out of bed in the morning and enjoy the views before the city stirs. Or watching the sunset over Ponte Vecchio with an evening cocktail from the comfort of the sofa. Just try not to get too distracted by the views outside to miss how beautiful the home itself is. Panelled walls, marble bathrooms and a glittering chandelier are just some of the standout features in this central Florentine home. The blue and white interiors are not only aesthetically pleasing, but promote a sense of serenity in an otherwise bustling city. You’re perfectly placed to enjoy the best that Florence has to offer, with all the main historical sites just a short walk away, including the Duomo, the Boboli Gardens and the Uffizi Gallery less than five minutes away. Air conditioning will keep you feeling cool in the summer months and the lift makes it easy to access the home. All you have to worry about is where you're going to head to first.

Umbrellas

Ideally located in Florence’s historic centre, this comfortably grand apartment puts you in a prime position to explore the best of the city’s historic hotspots. 

There’s a definite air of Old World elegance here, with the large living area boasting tall beamed ceilings and a decorative hearth that recalls the building’s rich history. Terracotta tiled floors add to the traditional Italian charm, and the contemporary decor fits seamlessly with its surroundings, creating the perfect balance of rustic and modern. 

Gather together for sociable breakfasts in the dining room as you peruse the books here over an espresso and spend evenings curled up on the sofas in conversation over a glass of Italian wine. At night, the pared-back bedroom is ready to ease you into a dreamy night’s slumber, certain to leave you rested and raring to go for another day of Florentine adventure. 

Speaking of exploring, you’ve got a wealth of culture on your doorstep, including Palazzo Strozzi (130 metres away), Palazzo Vecchio (400 metres away), Ponte Vecchio (also 400 metres away), the Uffizi Gallery (500 metres away) and the stunning Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore (550 metres away). 

Il Bibliofilo

Not many homes let you go sightseeing without even leaving the living room, but this apartment in the heart of Florence does – throw open the window and you're greeted by the sight of the 14th-century Orsanmichele's church. Your living quarters aren't quite as old, but there are a couple of more traditional features – including, look up, the patterned ceiling. A recent renovation has tastefully incorporated more contemporary aspects into the interior design and 21st-century travellers will find nothing to sniff at, especially when the fantastic central location is taken into consideration.

A Sprinkle of Magic

Extra Pillows and Blankets

Visiting Florence is always a good idea, and staying in this historic palazzo makes it all the more memorable. You’ll be in an incredible location, between the iconic Ponte Vecchio and  Ponte Santa Trinita – you can admire the four seasons statues from the living room windows. This home comprises two suites with bedrooms at mezzanine level above the living spaces, and a third bedroom. There’s plenty of space – you can unwind here in between exploring Florence. 

Between the Bridges

Self Check-in / Check-out

On a typical street, lined with period buildings, this charming loft home is a real retreat from the city. Comfortable and homey, it's just a short walk from all the major attractions, with the Basilica of Santa Croce just steps away from its door.

Once you've climbed the stairs (and there are a few to deal with here), you'll be rewarded with a beautifully modernised apartment with ancient beamed ceilings and a combination of period and contemporary styling. The open-plan living space has twin windows overlooking the street, and you'll have everything you need to cook at home and eat at the dining table. Perfect for a couple or a solo traveller, but also offering a sofa bed to increase the guest count, we particularly love the olive green bedroom. 

Florence with Love

Rain Shower

Boasting a wonderfully central location in Florence – just a four-minute stroll from the Duomo – this elegant apartment is an ideal base for those looking to get the most out of the city’s history and culture. 

Elegantly dressed, there’s a feeling of classical charm here with the living room’s contemporary furnishings, scenic oil paintings, exposed stone walls and glossy floors, while the downstairs bedroom is a lavish affair with its crystal chandelier and large windows draped in silver curtains. Upstairs, meanwhile, the mezzanine bedroom feels cosy and intimate with its beamed ceiling and antique-style decor – we’re especially fond of the wooden bureau here that's ideal should you need to catch up on work. Factor in the pair of showers – one of which is a luxurious rainfall – and you’ve got everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing stay.

Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty of restaurants, bars and shops to explore right on your front door, while beautiful Piazza della Signoria is a one-minute walk away. You’re also just a five-minute walk from Ponte Vecchio, while Strozzi Palace is four minutes away on foot. 


La Signorina

Satellite / Cable TV

This home's location is the epitome of Renaissance grandeur. You'll find it perched in Pitti Square, just steps from the vast Renaissance marvel of the Pitti Palace, where you'll find an array of art galleries and museums. Despite its central location, nestled in Florence's historic centre, this home is delightfully peaceful, perched up high on the fourth floor and tucked away from the hustle and bustle.

The interior is stylish and inviting, boasting lofty beamed ceilings and hardwood floors. Large windows usher in plenty of light while offering picturesque rooftop views. We especially love the open-plan living space, cloaked in a calming shade of baby blue and exuding an ambience of calm. After a restful slumber, enjoy slow mornings here, sipping espresso on the plush sofas and tucking into breakfast at the dining table before slipping out to explore. Stroll through the cobbled streets, passing through the shop-lined Ponte Vecchio and across the river to marvel at Centro Storico's array of medieval churches and cathedrals, including the red-tiled Duomo, thirteen minutes from your doorstep on foot.

This contemporary, elegant apartment is a wonderful home-from-home in Florence. You’ll be in the heart of the city, just a short walk from Piazza della Signoria, the Duomo, and the Uffizi. Restaurants, cafes, and gelaterias are all within easy reach of this conveniently located apartment, which looks out over the arcades. When you return from a busy day of sightseeing, you’ll have a petite patio to unwind on with a glass of wine. The apartment is stylish and attractive, with chic decor and tall windows that make it bright and welcoming.

Just over 500 metres from the iconic Ponte Vecchio and the Forte di Belvedere, this apartment has a fantastic address. Also within walking distance are the Basilica of Santa Croce, Palazzo Pitti and Florence Cathedral. You don’t have to go anywhere to admire some art though, as there are beautiful, frescoed ceilings at this historic home. This place is great for families or friends as there are two living rooms, as well as a mezzanine seating area which sleeps two guests on a sofa bed at full capacity. This home is perfect for those seeking history, elegance and comfort in the beating heart of Florence.

Renaissance Radiance

Multiple Sets of Keys

Unsurprisingly, we’re going to start by talking about the view. The floor-to-ceiling windows in the living space look directly out onto the River Arno and the famous Ponte Vecchio – an outstanding feat of engineering from Europe’s Middle Ages. You’re that close, you can hear the water rushing underneath the stone from your private balcony. The interiors are modest but comfortable and do well not to distract you from the fantastic vistas. Set up a traditional Italian breakfast at the dining table and watch daybreak over the water, then finish your coffee on the comfy couch as you put the finishing touches to your Florentine checklist. Take the short, ten-minute stroll across the bridge to the heart of the city where the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and Bargello National Museum are an afternoon well spent. Enjoy a pit stop in the bustling Piazza della Repubblica before continuing on to the Accademia Gallery, the proud home of Michelangelo’s David.

Rooftop Terrace

Elegance meets comfort in this bright apartment located just across from Florence’s historic Ponte Vecchio. From its parquet flooring to its detailed wall panelling and contemporary furnishings, this home oozes subtle sophistication at every turn. Snuggle up on the sofa with a glass of Italian wine after a day of sightseeing or gather around the smart dining table for a celebratory feast cooked up in the sleek kitchen. 
We love the luxurious marble-clad bathrooms with their rainfall showers and the pared-back simplicity of the comfortable bedrooms. You’ve also got access to a communal rooftop terrace with awe-worthy views of the Florence Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio Tower – the ideal spot to retreat to in the evening for an aperitivo. 
Outside of your home, the Pitti Palace is a four-minute walk away, the Duomo is walkable in nine and the beautiful Boboli Gardens are a twenty-minute stroll from your door. With your host able to organise plenty of fun activities – from boat trips on the Arno to wine and food tastings as well as truffle hunting and hot air balloon rides – you’ve got everything you need for a magical, memorable stay. 

Jacopo

If the original frescoes adorning this apartment don’t impress, then its location surely will. Set in the historic Santa Croce district, there’s a piazza right around the corner bustling with traditional restaurants and all the sightseeing hotspots are easily reached on foot. Housed in a grand palazzo, the apartment is surprisingly practical despite its historic bones. There’s air conditioning throughout, two bathrooms to speed mornings along and a desk for working remotely. It’s worth mentioning that if four guests stay, the last two will share a sofa bed in the lounge. While this won’t suit everyone, it could work out great for a small family or friends sharing.

The Frescoes

Garden

Throws

To find an apartment this close to the Ponte Vecchio and the Vasari Corridor (we're talking less than a minute away) in the heart of Florence's historic centre is special. But to bag a place with a courtyard garden to boot?⁠ Now that's a rare thing.
 
On sunny mornings, pad outside across the cool, terrazzo floors for a lazy breakfast and expressos in the surprisingly peaceful courtyard –⁠ it's a lovely spot for an evening aperitif, too, with the palazzo lit up in all its glory. 
 
Housed in a historic palace with an entrance of high and mighty proportions, inside this home doesn’t disappoint either. Newly renovated, there's a chromotherapy spa shower room complete with a star-lit ceiling and a light-filled, beautifully-styled bedroom complete with a walk-in closet to unpack and make the home your own.

When it's time to delve into Florence's winding, romantic streets, you won't have far to go. Follow in Medici's footsteps along the famous Vasari Corridor adorned with antique statues and 16th-century frescoes – the newly re-opened 1km-long covered passageway is on your doorstep (we recommend booking a tour in advance). Or hop over the Arno River and make a beeline to Brunelleschi's mighty red cathedral dome on Piazza del Duomo (a mere ten-minute stroll) and get ready to swoon.

Palazzo Paradiso

Enjoying a privileged position right on the banks of the River Arno, this handsome apartment is just the ticket for those looking for a sunny, relaxing stay. 
 
Inside, Old World charm creates an instantly inviting welcome in the grand living area with a plethora of antiques and classical-style furnishings, as well as a beautiful mezzanine library – the ideal spot to stow yourself away for some quiet reading. Those looking to work from home will find plenty of desk spaces, including in the elegant bedrooms with their river views.
 
Our favourite spot, however, is the private terrace overlooking the Arno, the San Niccolò district and the Oltrarno hills. Start your mornings here over coffee while listening to the river’s whispers or end evenings with a spritz at sundown before discovering the local dining scene. 
 
Speaking of exploring, you're spoilt for choice when it comes to cultural hotspots nearby with the Uffizi Gallery a seven-minute walk, Ponte Vecchio a nine-minute stroll and the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore thirteen minutes away on foot. 


Arno Poetry

Smart TV

The location of this apartment is impressive. It’s a stone’s throw from the Arno and a short stroll from the Uffizi Gallery, with major attractions like Piazza della Signoria ten minutes away on foot. You’ll have countless restaurants and cafes nearby and you’ll also have a well-equipped kitchen, should you prefer to dine in. The apartment features frescoed ceilings but is otherwise simple in style. It’s a comfortable base that’s perfectly positioned for visiting Florence. 

Beside the Arno

This apartment is perfect for exploring the heart of Tuscany’s capital city – it’s just a short stroll from Florence Cathedral and Piazza della Signoria. Other places of interest, such as the Ponte Vecchio, are also within easy walking distance. Housed in a historic building, the apartment blends modern furnishings with character features. The open-plan living space also sleeps two guests on a sofa bed at full capacity. You'll have everything you need here for a comfortable and memorable stay in Florence.

The Heart of Florence

This apartment caught our eye with its central location and private roof terrace – a rare treat in the heart of Florence. It’s also family-friendly with plenty of socialising space across the open plan living and dining room. With three comfortable bedrooms, this is a sweet option for groups in search of practicality and ease in a great setting. From here, it’s just a two-minute stroll to Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery. Plus, you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to restaurants, bars and shops. 

The Lady Florence 

Juicer

Overlooking Piazza della Signoria, this apartment has a fantastic address. Attractions such as the Fountain of Neptune, Piazza del Duomo and the Ponte Vecchio are all within a very short stroll. Back at this apartment, housed in a historic palazzo, you can take in the views over Piazza della Signoria – the vistas here are stunning. The living area is a great place to relax after a busy day in Florence – this room also sleeps guests five and six on a sofa bed. This home is a great find.

Piazza Vista

Looking for a Florence bolthole that's as unique as it is central? This Santa Croce district apartment, set in a fresco-adorned palazzo and within walking distance of all the must-see sights, is spot-on. With ceilings soaring nearly six metres high in the open-plan living and bedroom space, and a mezzanine level providing access to an additional single bedroom and bathroom, the layout is a tad quirky. But we think this only adds to the charm. It’s worth noting that the kitchen is on the small side and better suited to lighter meals and breakfast. But with so many traditional Florentine restaurants just around the corner in the Santa Croce Piazza, we suspect you’ll be eating out alot. 

The Frescoed Palace

If you're looking for a central Florentine home that oozes Italian charm, this is it. And as a bonus, it boasts uninterrupted views of the famous Pitti Palace, sitting directly across from the magnificent structure. This characterful abode has been masterfully restored, seamlessly marrying original features with design-led touches. Shuttered windows, hardwood floors and whitewashed ceiling beams create an elegant aesthetic, complemented with tasteful antiques and plush soft furnishings.

Whichever double bedroom you choose, you'll be given the premium treatment. Comfort has been given the top priority here, followed closely by the restful colour scheme of off-white, soft greys and jewel-toned accents. We think the deep teal wallpaper adds a boutique feel to the space.

From this location, you won't struggle to tick Florence's must-see sights off your itinerary. Piazza della Signoria, considered the city's heart, is just a short hop across the river, while the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fior is just a thirteen-minute walk away. Immediately on your doorstep, an array of buzzy bars and traditional restaurants invites you to savour the very best of local cuisine. We'd suggest a light breakfast so you can load up on the pasta and pizza come dinnertime.

Pitti Pad

You don’t have to worry about long walks into town when you stay at this gorgeous Florentine apartment. Located on one of the main shopping streets, Calzaiuoli, it’s a very short, four-minute hop to both the Duomo and the Palazzo Vecchio and you're practically on top of Piazza della Repubblica. What you might have to worry about is how to get all the souvenirs you’ll undoubtedly buy while staying in this enticing retail district into your suitcase. Or which wine to serve with the delicious pasta dish you're serving your friends from the well-equipped kitchen. Decorated in neutral tones and with hints of history in the original brickwork, this is a serene place to return after you’ve just popped out to some of the world famous landmarks that are right on your doorstep. 

Hello Duomo

While the look of Tulpa won’t be to everyone’s taste, you have to hand it to whoever the designer is for picking a theme and sticking with it. It’s also worth mentioning that the flat is in a fantastic position – the street runs from the Duomo to Santa Croce, so it’s one of the best places to stay for getting around the city on foot. All in all, it’s solid, and comfortable, and the right person will go mad for those prints.


Tulpa

Surrounded by historic buildings and just a stone’s throw from one of the city’s most beautiful basilicas, this apartment in Santa Croce puts you in an ideal position to experience the best of Florence’s iconic sights.
 
Pared-back yet boasting plenty of Old World charm with its beamed ceilings and wood floors, this home has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kick back on the sofa with a glass of locally-bought Italian wine or sit down to a meal at the dining table as the light pours in through the tall windows. The two bedrooms – one of which is on the mezzanine floor – are stylishly minimalist offering the perfect canvas for a restful night’s sleep and leaving you rested and ready for another exciting day of sightseeing. 
 
Speaking of exploring, you’ve got plenty to see within easy walking distance, including the Basilica of Santa Croce (four minutes), Piazza della Signoria (ten minutes), the Uffizi Gallery (also ten minutes) and the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore (fifteen minutes). 


Portamento

This apartment is on the third floor of a historically important palazzo in Florence. It’s perfectly located for exploring the city, with most of the main attractions a ten-fifteen-minute walk away, including Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi. The Basilica of Santa Croce is a few steps away, and the apartment boasts spectacular views of Florentine rooftops. The apartment is full of historic charm – we love the frescoed ceilings – and has plenty of space for all twelve guests to spend time together. 

Terracotta Embrace

Set in a historic building, we love this apartment’s view of the River Arno and Florentine architecture from the elegant living room. If you want to do some Italian cooking while you are here, the kitchen, though quite compact, has everything you probably need. Or, there are plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby to enjoy. This address, in the heart of Florence, means many of the city’s attractions are a short walk. The Museo Bardini is 20 metres away, while the Ponte Vecchio and the Fortezza di Belvedere are both around 600 metres from this home.

Experience the timeless elegance of historic Florence in this beautiful home. Housed in a 19th-century palazzo adorned with cherubs and griffins, this is a striking Florentine apartment. Look forward to 5-metre-high frescoed ceilings, historic paintings, and parquet flooring. Two living rooms and a separate dining room mean you’ll have all the space you need, though at full occupancy, four guests will share bedroom one, with two sleeping on the mezzanine level. The apartment is just five minutes from iconic Ponte Vecchio and a fifteen-minute walk from the Duomo. 

Vecchio Vibes

Apex has so many things going for it that focussing on the specifics seems unfair. Needless to say that everything in the flat is of the highest quality, whether that’s the carrara marble in the bathroom, or the four-poster bed. In fact it’s the bedrooms (or three of them anyway) that make the biggest impression. They’re what you might imagine from a seventeenth-century noble mansion, and while obviously all these things are personal preferences, they make for a seriously good night’s sleep.


Apex

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

Situated in the heart of Florence, with the iconic Ponte Vecchio only a stone’s throw away, this home gives you access to some of the capital’s best sights. See the city’s love of art in renaissance galleries and museums within walking distance, and don’t miss the touristy bits like the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and Piazzale Michelangelo – more of a walk, but worth the views. The home, on the sixth floor with a working elevator – rare in Florence – might not be revolutionary, and the kitchen is small, but it is comfortable, and the view of the river and Duomo is a nice touch.

Ode to Santa Maria

Heated Towel Rail

This elegant apartment gives you a taste of the Florence of the past. The building is 800 years old and full of charm – though, of course, a home of that age will show some signs of wear and tear. We love the wooden floors and the ceiling beams, but the real star of this home is its location. Staying here, you’re based in a quiet neighbourhood that’s close to the top sights of the city. You need only walk six minutes to reach the Uffizi and ten minutes to the Duomo. 

The Art of Florence

Right above Florence's Teatro Verdi, this two-bedroom apartment is ideal for families and friends, with a sofa bed in the living room for an extra two guests. The gorgeous art of famous works like Michelangelo's David above the beds really make this home stand out, and while you can expect some outside noise here due to the location, we think it's more than worth it. You'll be just steps from attractions like the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, as well as plenty of shops and restaurants for stocking up on essentials and trying the local cuisine.

Florence's Gate

This handsome apartment is nestled in the historic centre of Florence – making this a great base from which to explore the city. You’ll be just a stone’s throw from Piazza Santa Croce and Piazza della Signoria, while the Duomo is also within easy reach. Take your pick from a diverse selection of local restaurants and cafes, or savour the comfort of dining at home. There is plenty of socialising space across the living room and there is a private terrace – a nice perk in this central location. At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living but this is a handy option for families travelling with kids. 

Italian Heaven

Free Parking

Immerse yourself in all that the magical city of Florence has to offer with a stay at this charming apartment situated right at the heart of the old town, just steps away from the iconic Duomo. Located in a historic building, this place retains all of its vintage charm while at the same time boasting modern comforts and luxury to make your holiday extra restful. 

Enter through the front door to be greeted by a bright living space, with floods of natural light gently streaming in through the large windows. We love the high ceilings with their white wooden beams – what could be more authentically Florentine than that? You’ll find plenty of room to kick off your shoes and relax on the comfy sofa which at night can be pulled out to serve as a double bed. The kitchenette may be small in scale but it has all you need to whip up a quick and delicious supper or breakfast, which you can then enjoy with your loved ones at the elegant dining table by the window. 

When you also consider the plush and luxurious bedrooms, with their soft beds and lovely pale tones, as well as the spa-like ambience of the modern bathrooms, you know that you have all you need to have a relaxing stay. 

Start your day with a fresh cup of Italian coffee before heading out to discover the many gems of Florence – aside from the proximity to the Duomo you’ll also be a three-minute walk away from the Bargello Museum, which houses many of Michelangelo's masterpieces. 

The Green Dome 

Tucked away on the top floor, this enchanting home in the heart of Florence mixes Italian character with contemporary details. It's about 62 steps to reach it, but once inside, you can relax on the roomy sofas or hideaway in the kitchen to watch your group test their skills at Italian cuisine. Dining alfresco has never been easier with the sunny terrace. If you’d prefer to sample to local cuisine (and who are we kidding), you’re just a two-minute walk away from Piazza Signoria. Most of the city's most famous attractions are within walking distance, including Ponte Vecchio, Basilica of Santa Croce, and Accademia Gallery – which means you are perfectly placed to make a quick stop back home to watch the sunset over the rooftops with a bottle of Tuscan wine. 

Under the Rafters

Indulge in the ultimate Florence shopping experience from this elegant apartment on Via de' Tornabuoni – located directly above Alexander McQueen and Balenciaga. Set in the heart of the city's fashion district, the very best boutiques, fine dining, and iconic sights are just moments away. The apartment is bright, modern, and situated in a gorgeous historic building that makes an imposing first impression. There are thoughtful touches throughout, including a luxurious bathtub in the main bedroom. What better after a day of exploring? If you don't mind sharing the ensuite, a sofa bed in the living area provides extra sleeping space for two. You’ll have to climb 57 steps to reach it on the second floor, but the dream location is well worth it.

Haute Hideaway

Ideally located just a two-minute walk from the famous Uffizi Gallery, this modern apartment puts you in a prime position to discover Florence’s most celebrated sights. 
 
Pared-back, contemporary decor sets the scene in the open-plan living area where a sofa invites you to make yourself at home with a glass of Italian wine and a dining table beckons breakfasts over fresh coffee ahead of a day of sightseeing. 
 
We love the parquet floors featured throughout, as well as the plethora of art prints decking the walls. The bedroom is equally stylish with its inviting bed and gild-framed oil painting, while the bathroom – complete with a stone rainfall shower – is ready to get any day off on the right foot. 
 
When you’re ready to set out for a day of adventure, spend some time admiring the Uffizi’s art or take a stroll across Ponte Vecchio, a four-minute walk away. You’re also a three-minute walk from Piazza della Signoria, while the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is eight minutes away on foot.
