This apartment is housed in a historic building in the heart of Florence, just a stone’s throw from the iconic Duomo. You’ll be a short walk from cultural hotspots including the Uffizi and Michelangelo’s David, and you’ll have a wealth of excellent restaurants and bars nearby. When you’re not out sightseeing or sampling the best gelato in the city, you can relax under the preserved frescoes of this traditional home. With eight guests, the sleeping arrangements are a little crowded, with four sleeping on a mezzanine level. But for a comfortable place to rest your head on a city break, we think this apartment is a solid choice.
