Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
For a city centre location, this home is in a quieter spot. Yet you’re just a few minutes’ stroll from Piazzale Michelangelo, with its amazing views over Florence, and a ten-minute walk from picturesque Ponte Vecchio. The sleeping arrangements here won’t suit everyone – bedroom two has a sofa bed, and at full capacity, guests five and six will be on the sofa bed in the living area – but we think the location of this home makes it a great find for a family or group of friends.
