Il Dragone is really all about the location. It’s on a beautiful winding alleyway that feels secluded, yet it’s actually only a couple of minutes from the Ponte Vecchio.

The flat itself is perfectly comfortable, and while the design isn’t especially eye-catching, the neutral shades help to create a calm atmosphere.
