Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

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.

Home truths

    At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.

    Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. Light sleepers might want to pack earplugs.

    One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.

    While we love the overall design of this home, it is lacking in natural light.

    There are steep steps leading up to the front door here. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.

Local guide


About Santa Croce

Santa Croce is a trendy, architecturally impressive neighbourhood that’s less busy than the Duomo or San Marco districts, but still in the heart of Florence. Home to the eponymous basilica, and the Casa Buonarroti museum, it’s located in the eastern part of Florence’s historic centre. The largest crowds have thinned out by this point, but if you stay here, you're still close enough to explore the whole city on foot....
