Location is the name of the game at this one-bed in Florence. It's near Piazza Santissima Annunziata, away from the tourist throngs, but close enough to the action that you can do a lot on foot. The area is also a hive of activity with artisan shops and studios dotted around the streets, as well as cafes, bars and restaurants aplenty. And, with a large, private terrace at your disposal, you can cap the day off with a cocktail or meal alfresco, with views over the landscaped gardens below.
