Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Few apartments put you this close to the beating heart of Florence – the Duomo is a five-minute walk, Piazza della Signoria seven, and the Uffizi Gallery eight. Jewel-toned bedrooms sit beneath exposed beams, evidence of this 19th-century building's long history, while a bold bathroom wrapped in gold-and-black tiles gives the whole place a confident, designer edge. This pad is well-equipped for long stays, with a practical utility room and a well-equipped kitchen, but considering the location, we reckon you'll spend most of your time exploring.

Local guide
About Santa Maria Novella
Tucked inside the thirteenth century boulevard that marks out the oldest part of Florence, this neighbourhood is on the western edge of Florence’s historic centre. The Piazza Santa Maria Novella, with its Gothic church and museum, is the centrepiece, and while the area immediately surrounding the train station is fairly gritty, it’s a convenient spot for those just passing through. Though Santa Maria Novella is not directly in the middle...
