This elegant apartment is housed in a 16th-century palazzo in the popular San Niccolò district of Florence. You’ll find your way here via narrow streets alongside the medieval walls – it feels pleasantly removed from the hustle and bustle of the touristy parts of the city, but you’re still within easy reach for sightseeing, dining out, and gallery hopping. We love the layout of this Florentine home, with its library area and convenient workspace. There’s even a hot tub for when you want to take your relaxation up a notch.
