Few apartments can claim Palazzo Vecchio as a direct neighbour, but this one faces it head-on from Piazza della Signoria – meaning you wake up to one of Florence's most iconic views without stepping outside. Exposed wooden beams and large windows bring natural light into every room, and the building's lift makes arriving with luggage painless. Ponte Vecchio is a five-minute walk, Florence Cathedral a ten-minute stroll, and the Uffizi is essentially on the doorstep. For a stay rooted in the heart of the historic centre, the address alone is hard to beat.
