Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This rustic Florentine apartment puts you right in the middle of the action. Set at the heart of the city, you’ll be just a short stroll from the Duomo, and iconic sights like the Uffizi Gallery. Plus, you’ve got a whole host of restaurants and cafes practically on your doorstep. Back home, the design blends classic Florentine style with modern comforts, creating a cosy spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing. One will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area, and it’s also worth noting the apartment is on the second floor with no lift – but we think the central location more than makes up for the climb.
