Housed in a former palace that once held painter Jacopo Chimenti’s studio, this elegant apartment puts views of the Duomo front and centre. So close you could almost reach out and touch it, the home’s proximity to the Duomo isn’t the only thing going for this Florentine pad. An electric fireplace in the living room, a four-poster bed, as well as an upstairs studio with a desk and access to a terrace are all highlights here. And thanks to the home’s prime position in the heart of the city, you’ve got countless historic and cultural hotspots to visit within easy walking distance.

Home truths
At capacity, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the upstairs studio. The studio has a bathroom, a desk area and access to a balcony. Due to the home's internal stairs, it may not be best suited to those with reduced mobility.
Given the home's central location, you may hear some street noise. Light sleepers might wish to pack earplugs.
The living room's fireplace is electric.
We recommend skipping the car here and exploring Florence on foot or by public transport instead.
