Four minutes from the Duomo and a short stroll from Piazza della Signoria, this apartment sits at the heart of Florence's historic centre – and feels every bit as extraordinary as its address suggests. The living room is covered in 16th-century palace frescoes, restored over five years and still vivid, giving the space a grandeur that few city apartments can claim. Hardwood floors and contemporary bathrooms keep things liveable, and a lift means arriving is effortless. Ponte Vecchio is a twelve-minute walk away when you're ready to explore.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the second bedroom.
The king bed in the second bedroom can be split into two twin beds on request – let your host know before you arrive if you'd prefer that layout.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair at no additional cost. You'll need to request them in advance.
The apartment sits inside a ZTL (Zona Traffico Limitato) zone, which means you cannot drive directly to the door, and there is no parking here. We recommend arriving by taxi, public transport, or on foot from the nearest drop-off point.
