Sitting within the intimate Piazza di San Pancrazio, this ideally located apartment in Florence’s historic centre offers the city on its doorstep, as well as a stylish base to call home. With its wood floors, skylights and contemporary decor, the living room is a chilled-out space you'll relish relaxing in after a day of exploring the city. We love the lit shelves decorated with plants and ornaments behind the inviting sofa – the spot you’ll want to kick back on, a glass of wine in hand. The dining table beckons sociable breakfasts and celebratory meals when you’re not out sampling the local food scene, while the inner courtyard-facing bedrooms – one of which has a desk – are serene spaces designed with a restful sleep in mind. Factor in the luxurious bathrooms with their rainfall showers and colourful neon light settings, and you’ve got everything you need for a relaxing stay. When it comes to sightseeing, make a beeline for the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore – an eight-minute walk – or spend a cultural afternoon at the Accademia Gallery, a thirteen-minute stroll away. You’re also a four-minute walk from the Basilica of Santa Maria Novella, an eight-minute stroll from the enchanting Ponte Vecchio, while the Uffizi Gallery is ten minutes away on foot.
