Florentine bliss awaits at this apartment ideal for a long weekend stop in the cradle of the Renaissance. Spotless and cheery with high, natural wooden ceilings the apartment is designed with Tuscan minimalism in mind. The rustic and light vibe of the apartment makes it the perfect respite from the buzzing, baroque streets of Florence. There’s no need for a car or taxi here, as it's ideally located a short walk from the Brunelleschi Dome and the Accademia. After a day out in one of Europe’s most cherished cultural hubs, return home to a feeling of serenity with a touch of the romantic. Curl up on the lipstick-red sofa, or whip something up in the sparkling modern kitchen (stock up at Mercato Centrale, just two blocks away). The touches of antique furniture and exposed stone walls are a reminder you’re staying in a city brimming with art and history.
