It feels like you can almost touch the Church of Santo Spirito from the windows of this apartment – we love the vistas here. You also get glimpses of the cathedral from the living room (which also sleeps guests seven and eight on a sofa bed). One bedroom is on a mezzanine, the second overlooks the same views while the third has a courtyard outlook. Located in the heart of the vibrant Santo Spirito district, you’ll be just a few steps from the square and the Boboli Gardens, while Florence Cathedral is within walking distance.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.
One bedroom is on the mezzanine level and semi-open to the space below, so privacy is limited.

There's one free parking space on the premises.

About Pitti
Unsurprisingly, Pitti stretches from the Palazzo Pitti – a Renaissance palace housing a vast European art collection – up to the river.
