Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This home is located in Florence’s historic centre, just a stone’s throw from Piazza della Libertà. You’ll also be able to walk to the Duomo, Santa Maria Novella, and Basilica di Santa Croce in under half an hour. The living space here isn’t huge – as you’d expect from a city centre apartment – but you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable stay. We think this place is perfect for a couple or solo traveller, favouring location over square footage.
