This apartment is a ten-minute stroll from the picturesque Piazzale Michelangelo, where you can savour some of the finest views of Florence. The iconic Ponte Vecchio is nearby too, which you can cross to reach the historic centre for sightseeing and shopping. We think you’ll feel right at home here, prepping pasta in the kitchen or enjoying coffee and cocktails on the small balcony. And while the city is on your doorstep, this corner of Florence is surprisingly serene, so it’s a great pick if you’re after a spot of peace and quiet.

Home truths
There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs (approximately forty steps) to reach the entrance of the home on the fourth floor.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a high chair for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
While there's a hob and a small countertop oven here, we think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.

About Piazzale Michelangelo
Named for the impressive eponymous square, this area is home to several gardens, churches, and villas that offer stunning views over Florence. The San Miniato Church is the best place to watch the sunset over the domes and spires of the city.
