You'll be off to a flying start exploring the swoon-worthy streets of Florence with a stay at this loft-style apartment. Located slap bang in the middle of the historic centre with the mighty Basilica di San Lorenzo as your neighbour, settings don't come much better than this. Delve into the city's romantic, winding stadas to discover renaissance delights at every turn, starting just around the corner at Brunelleschi's emblematic red cathedral dome on Piazza del Duomo (a five-minute stroll). When thoughts turn to food (and a glass of something crisp), dive into the countless trattorias and buzzy bars dotted around the streets to feast on Tuscan classic cuisine. And if you fancy a spot of shopping, one of the city's oldest open-air markets is right outside your door. When it's finally time to rest up back at home, the galleried open concept living area inside this sleek apartment makes quite the first impression, with natural daylight flooding through the floor-to-ceiling windows. An excellent choice for a couple or single traveller, the bedroom is perched on a mezzanine level with a smart, glass partition allowing you to make the most of those views of Basilica di San Lorenzo seen right through your window. Best savoured from bed with a freshly brewed coffee, we say.

The most central and the most touristy neighbourhood – Duomo is likely to be more suitable for a short stay.
