Steps from Piazza Santa Maria Novella, this apartment sits deep in Florence's historic centre with the city's major sights on your doorstep. It's the perfect location for sightseeing – all the major landmarks are within walking distance, from the Ponte Vecchio to the Duomo. Inside, expect original terracotta floors and a floral mural in the dining room. The building has its own story – once home to a Florentine craftsman – and that sense of lived history lingers in every room. It's a practical, comfortable option in a great location.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
There's no lift here. You'll need to be able to climb stairs to reach the entrance of the home. It's on the first floor.
This home is on a lively central street, and noise from the street and building at night is likely – particularly at weekends. If you're a light sleeper, consider bringing earplugs.
As this home is set in the limited traffic zone (ZTL), we suggest exploring on foot rather than driving.

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.
