Delivering knockout vistas of Florence's rooftops and the mighty Duomo from nearly every room, we've fallen hard for this central bolthole. Each light-filled bedroom is as elegant as the next, though they are short on floor and storage space, so we recommend packing lightly. It's also worth noting at full occupancy, it could be a squeeze to all kick back on the sofa, and while the kitchen is well-equipped, it's short on prepping space. It's the perfect excuse to eat out instead, and luckily, you're an olive stone's throw from countless traditional trattorias for all the Tuscan classics.

Marrying contemporary design with Italian flair, this apartment is a stylish base in the heart of Florence. The living space boasts modern artwork and a small kitchen. That said, with delicious eateries nearby, dining out will likely be on the cards. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms ensure there's plenty of privacy, too. However, the location is what makes this place a real star. A stroll in one direction will take you to Piazza della Signoria and the Uffizi Galleries. Head the opposite way to see the striking Basilica di Santa Croce and historic Teatro Verdi. Exploring on foot is a breeze here – it's perfect for those keen in the centre of the action.

When we came across this quaint apartment, we did a double-take. While it may be a bit old-school in style, it has lots of charm and comfort for a city stay. Set on the third floor, with a private balcony overlooking the rooftops of Florence and a courtyard that oozes Italian appeal, there's no lack of character here. Located in the historic district, you'll have lots of sights to see within walking distance, too. All in all, for a cosy stay with friends or family, this one ticks a lot of boxes.

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.

Nice to haves

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).

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

Paid Parking On Street

Looking for a characterful bolthole in the historic heart of Tuscany’s capital? This quintessential Florentine apartment should do nicely, set just two minutes from Piazza Santa Maria Novella and five from the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore. While the interiors are utterly charming, a home of this heritage does have its quirks. Expect to climb stairs to reach the third floor and a mezzanine space accessed via a small ladder that is unsuitable for young children. It’s also worth noting there's a double sofa bed here and only room for two around the kitchen table. However, there’s heaps of space to spill out in the main living room with those high ceilings and views of the piazza below.

The Music of Florence 

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.

Renaissance Repose

Florence's most famous landmarks are mere steps from this apartment. Ponte Vecchio, Piazza Signoria, Florence Cathedral, and plenty more are less than ten minutes away on foot. Of course, being in the heart of the city has its quirks. Noise is likely here, and a climb to the third floor is required as the building doesn't have a lift. But once inside, we reckon you'll appreciate the traditional features on offer. The open-plan living area has just enough room to decompress after sightseeing as well as a compact (yet well-appointed) kitchen to rustle up Italian dishes. Two guests will sleep on a sofa bed, though – fine for short stays, but may not suit everyone.

Florentia

Bathrobes

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.

Set amidst the artistic and architectural wonders of central Florence, this apartment welcomes you to experience the majestic beauty of the Tuscan capital. And with the renowned Mercato Centrale just moments from your door, there’s everything you could need to sample the delicious flavours of Italian living. 

From the open-plan design to the rustic stone and contemporary styling, the owners have created a space that feels instantly welcoming. There’s a generous living and dining room, while the cosy kitchen opens up onto a wonderful terrace – providing the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee or later with early evening drinks. Back inside, the air-conditioned bedrooms have been designed to enrich your stay with comfort and ease – ensuring you wake up refreshed and ready to explore. 

Days can be spent wandering the atmospheric streets of San Lorenzo, marvelling at the Basilicas, admiring the art and savouring the magic of the traditional trattoria. And for those evenings when you want to experience the comfort of home, this apartment invites you to sit back, relax and enjoy a cosy movie night (Netflix is included). 

Fiore di Città

Located in the centre of Florence, one of the artistic capitals of the world, this bright and modern design places you within minutes of famous sites like the Duomo, Accademia Gallery, and Medici Palace. The combined living and dining room features a kitchenette and ample windows, allowing you to enjoy a home-cooked meal while taking in views of the Medici Chapels. Though the décor is quite minimalist, we believe this centrally located apartment makes the perfect base for a couple looking to make the most of the city’s museums, restaurants, and bars.

The Medici Mix

Free Parking On Premises

Multiple Sets of Keys

Located in one of the most magical parts of Florence right by the Arno, this apartment opens its doors to a stylish Italian getaway. The owners have crafted a calm city sanctuary with space to stretch out, unwind or catch up on work. We love the clean lines, neutral tones, and pops of colour – it all feels very contemporary and sophisticated. Outside, private parking is a big perk if you're travelling by car. You can also stroll to restaurants, cafes, and local farmers' markets. Keen to visit the landmarks? It’s just a twenty-minute walk to iconic sights like Florence Cathedral as well as museums.

Santo Spirito Style

This apartment is a great base for a family or a group of friends visiting Florence. Situated close to all the historical sights, you can walk to landmarks like the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, while good public transport connections mean that you can easily reach other parts of the city, too. With comfy bedrooms and plenty of space for dining, not to mention the small private balcony, this place has everything to make your stay here an enjoyable one. There's even a desk if you need to catch up on work. And while the kitchen is on the smaller side (though still well-equipped), you'll find an array of delicious eateries a short stroll away.

The Symmetry

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

Rain Shower

Florence's renaissance delights are at every turn with a stay at this sleek apartment, set right in the heart of the city's historic centre. Blaze a trail through the city's romantic, winding streets to discover Brunelleschi's mighty red cathedral dome on Piazza del Duomo (a five-minute walk) or, even closer,  Basilica di San Lorenzo (a one-minute stroll). If you fancy a spot of shopping, look no further than outside your door. One of the city's oldest open-air markets with every type of Florentine leather goods going is right there – as are stellar drinking and eating destinations for all the Tuscan fare, pizza, and gelatos you could muster.
 
Back at this sleek apartment, the home feels like a tranquil hideaway, despite all the action going on outside. Housed in a traditional palazzo building, while the home is completely renovated for modern living, the lofty ceilings remain in the bedrooms giving the space a grandeur feel. 

Guests sharing will appreciate the two separate marble-clad bathrooms, so you can be up and at it in no time with a stay here. But you'll love the inner courtyard even more – it's the perfect spot to savour morning expressos or early evening aperitifs before another adventure in this enchanting city.

City of Lilies

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

Home Cinema Setup

From its exposed brick walls to its beamed ceilings and arched windows, this rustic-meets-modern apartment is a slice of Florentine traditionalism, given a swish 21st-century sparkle. 
 
The open-plan main room is the home’s sociable heart, with plump sofas congregated around a large screen for cosy movie nights over a bottle of Italian wine and an elegant dining space that beckons home-cooked feasts when you’re not out sampling the local trattorias. We love the kitchen’s forest green cabinetry and marble countertops, while the bedroom – a haven of brick and beams – offers a dreamy setting for a blissful night’s sleep. Factor in the large bathroom with a dual rainfall shower, and you’ve got everything you need for a relaxing, pampered stay 
 
And when it comes to exploring, you’re in a prime sightseeing spot with Ponte Vecchio a two-minute walk, the Pitti Palace a three-minute stroll and the Uffizi Gallery six minutes away on foot, just over the Arno. With the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore also just a ten-minute walk and Piazza della Signoria eight minutes on foot from your door, you’ve got the best of the city’s history and culture within easy reach. 


Brick & Arch

Around the corner from Ponte Santa Trinità, Chimney Sweep is in a great location for seeing the centre of Florence. Despite being set over three levels, it’s quite small, but while the kitchen is a little underwhelming, the rest of the house feels pleasantly cosy. Unusually, one of our favourite parts of the home is the single room. What used to be an enormous stone fireplace has been converted into a writing nook, and it feels like a wonderful place to set up shop with a laptop and get to work on your novel.


Chimney Sweep

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

Gaze out at the iconic domed cathedral from the comfort of this spectacular city-centre apartment. Set within an eye-catching period building, complete with imposing wooden double doors, along the rather lovely Via dei Servi, which connects the Piazza del Duomo and the Piazza della Santissima Annunziata. 

This narrow street is lined with a wide array of shops, charming cafes, and traditional restaurants, which should be your first port of call when you get the urge to head out and explore the city. For a closer look at the duomo, you need only walk a couple of minutes to the bustling piazza that surrounds it. Wandering a little over 100m in the opposite direction will lead to the fascinating Leonardo da Vinci Museum, which is filled with life-sized machines based on his many sketches. 

For more Renaissance creations, the iconic Uffizi Gallery lies around 700m to the south – well within walking distance. We'd recommend a leisurely riverside stroll along the River Arno afterwards, or if you're feeling active, head out on a stand-up paddleboarding expedition downriver.

Inside, the apartment is all clean lines and contemporary design, the exposed wood of the soaring ceilings and large wood-framed windows are the main clues to the building's extensive history. An open kitchen and living area combines Scandinavian style with Italian flair to create a stylish space with a real soul.

The Mannerists

Vacuum Cleaner

Found a short walk from the iconic Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and closer still to the market of Sant'Ambrogio, this apartment is ideal for getting around Florence. But it doesn't just tick the box on a central location, it also has all the modern charm to make a family stay comfortable. Though little ones might need supervision on the stairs up to the loft the rest of the home is all on the same level. Upstairs is where you'll find the laptop-friendly workspace and a breakout zone teens might enjoy. It could do with a little more natural light to highlight the exposed beams, but it's still cosy and well-kept. 

The Florentine

Distressed wooden beams line the high ceilings in this quaint Florence apartment. The accents of distressed wood and exposed traditional stone walls continue throughout the home, adding a layer of Tuscan farmhouse charm to this city apartment. Blink and you'll think you're in a twee cottage in the rolling hills of Tuscany. You wouldn't think you're right in the centre of Florence. It's the perfect blend of traditional charm with city convenience. And convenient it is – you're less than a ten-minute walk from so many of the city's hotspots. But first, the best way to prepare for a day of exploring is a hearty breakfast. Head to a nearby bakery to pick up some local goods and enjoy a beautiful spread around the large table. 

When you're ready to venture out, you're just a ten-minute walk from the Uffizi Gallery, Piazza del Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, Ponte Vecchio, and so much more. Enjoy gaping at Renaissance masterpieces, shopping in quaint boutiques, and eating to your heart's content. When your feet can no longer go on, pick up some antipasto and a local bottle of wine to be enjoyed around the dining table before hitting the hay. Your queen-size bed promises a deep, restful sleep, preparing you to wake up refreshed and do it all again the next day. 

Fresco Faintness

With this apartment, you can reach many of Florence’s key landmarks within a short walk. We’re talking Piazza San Marco, the cathedral, Basilica di San Lorenzo and much more. You’ll also be steps away from the Central Market with its food court and souvenir stalls. The apartment itself, situated in a historic building, has a large living room, which also has a sofa bed. We love the character features, including the fireplace, intricate tiles and ceiling frescoes. Here you can experience Florence like a local.

This apartment in Florence boasts amazing views of the city and the Arno River. Housed in a 14th-century building, this elegant home, furnished with works by renowned local artists, offers a blend of historical charm and modern sophistication.

Just a short stroll away, you'll find iconic landmarks like the Uffizi Gallery and the Duomo. Even nearer, the magnificent Piazza Santa Croce and the Basilica are right on your doorstep.

Luxury Bedding

Underfloor Heating

Nestled in the cobbled heart of Florence, just a four-minute stroll from the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. In true Florentine fashion, it enchants from the outset, sitting shoulder to shoulder with a delightful string of haute-couture boutiques and world-class art galleries. 

The beautifully-equipped interior exudes elegance, cloaked in calming neutral tones and vibrant pops of colour. Sweeping archways create a free-flowing ambience primed for relaxation, and large windows usher in heaps of natural light while offering picturesque snapshots of the pretty courtyard below. After a restful slumber in the sumptuous bedrooms, spend mornings roosted at the dining table for espressos and pastries before slipping out for a stroll to the red-tiled Duomo or across the river, passing through the shop-lined Ponte Vecchio – they're both just six minutes away on foot. 

Between adventures, kick back on the plush upholstery with a good book or a glass of wine and, if you feel so inclined, prepare delicious meals in the fully-equipped kitchen. Though, in this gourmet paradise, we wouldn't blame you for exploring the wide variety of eateries at your doorstep. 

Watercolour Clouds

This Florentine apartment has earned a place in our collection for it’s standout central location. In the heart of the Sant'Ambrogio district, you’re just a stroll away from some of Florence’s must-see attractions, such as Duomo di Firenze and Ponte Vecchio. And if that’s not enough, you’ll also have a local market and an array of restaurants close by. At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the lounge area so it won’t be the most private of spaces, but with a breakfast bar and dining table in the mix, we think there’s enough room for everyone. 

Sant'Ambrogio Serenity

Private Dryer

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

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

If you like exploring cities on foot, then this is the place for you. Nestled in the heart of the city, within walking distance of many of the main sights, this apartment is a glorious gateway to the wonders of Florence. 

The interior is a blend of modern style and traditional charm – think crisp white furnishings, terracotta tiles, and rustic wooden ceiling beams. You'll love whipping up your favourite pasta dishes in the kitchen, and gathering around the table to share food and stories of your adventures. And, the two bedrooms are soothing and tranquil, so you're guaranteed a peaceful night's sleep after a busy day exploring. 

From here, the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella are both just a short stroll away. After you've ticked them off your sightseeing list, you can stop off at one of the pretty piazzas for an espresso or some lunch as you admire the city's breathtaking architecture. And, if you cross the River Arno, you'll arrive at the Palazzo Pitti, the Renaissance royal palace with an impressive art collection. 

Fancy In Florence

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 

In the heart of Florence, this apartment puts you within walking distance of the city's many famous landmarks. Among them are the Duomo (ten minutes on foot), Uffizi Gallery (a fifteen-minute walk) and Ponte Vecchio (also reachable in fifteen minutes) – not to mention a bevvy of shops and restaurants. Due to its ground-floor position, there's little natural light here. But we can overlook that since there's something better – a private courtyard garden. Outdoor space is rare in this postcode, making it the perfect spot for post-sightseeing aperitifs. As the living area has a sofa bed, we recommend this pad for short trips, especially if you're a group of six.

Florence Belle

Workplace

In a privileged setting, a mere fifty metres from the Piazza del Duomo and the looming Campanile di Giotto, this apartment is an ideal choice for first-time visitors and those who like to be in the heart of the action. Inside, it’s modern and fuss-free with a minimalist living area for putting your feet up at the end of a busy day and three large bedrooms with plenty of space for unpacking. 

If you’re keen to flex your culinary muscles, there’s a fully-equipped kitchen with everything you need for putting together Italian classics. But on evenings when you’d prefer to hang up your chef’s apron, you’re footsteps from a number of traditional ristorantes and osterias. If sightseeing is on the agenda, the Piazza della Signoria and Strozzi Palace are no more than a five-minute walk away – not to mention the Uffizi Gallery, the home of Botticelli’s Birth of Venus, is located only seven minutes from your door.

Bell Tower

Rooftop Terrace

We adore this chic home's stunning terrace with its wonderful view of the Duomo di Firenze (Florence Cathedral) and many of the city's famous sights. It's a huge space, nestled in among the rooftops and drenched in sun. As the sun goes down, it's the perfect place to eat some local produce and sample some Tuscan wine. We also really love the living room style – its simplicity defined, with pale colours and a clear influence from Scandinavian design. Located in the heart of Florence's luxury shopping district, Via dè Tornabuoni is just a three-minute stroll away. This neighbourhood is also known for its array of Florentine restaurants, cafes and bakeries. If you want to visit the Duomo, it's a four-minute wander, while the medieval Ponte Vecchio is an eight-minute saunter. For art lovers, the Uffizi Gallery is just over ten minutes on foot. Whatever you decide to do – make sure you bring comfy shoes – there's so much to see nearby. 

Roundabout
