Apartment in a 13th Century palace in the heart of Florence

Unusual, romantic apartment full of atmosphere in one of Florence's oldest areas - that once occupied by the Roman amphitheatre. Indeed, the street takes its name from one of the principal entrances into the arena. Just 50m from the church of Santa Croce Church, 200m from Piazza Signoria, 100m from Piazza del Duomo, 200m from the Uffizzi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio, and 10m from Vivoli, Florence's best known ice cream parlour!! The apartment, on the first floor of this antique palazzo, is accessed via a flight of 24 steps (no elevator). It offers 2 double bedrooms (one with a French bed - 140x200 cm ), which look onto the open plan sitting room area, a fully appointed kitchen, a marble dining table for 6. It is tastefully furnished with the owner's personal belongings and is equipped with a TV, DVD and CD player, stereo, WI-FI, dishwasher, washing-machine, air cond
Just walking through the central courtyard of this beautiful Palazzo is a journey to the heart of historic Florence. Centrally located, it is perfect for sight seeing, shopping and food markets, discovering cosy trattorie and bars, as well as artists' and artisans' ateliers.
Good for 2 up to 4 guests ( 5 guests on request )

Amazing apartment close to all amenities
Loved our stay at this property. The check in process was very easy and Diego was very accommodating as our train from Rome was delayed and then finding a taxi quite the wait. The location is fabulous, close to everything. The farthest walk we had was 25 min and that was to a tour bus. Everything else was super close with the train station a 15-20 min walk depending on the crowds. Beds were comfortable and the fans helped immensely with the heat. Overall such a wonderful experience.

Perfect Spot In Florence
We absolutely loved this place. It was just a few minute walk to town but far enough away that it was super loud at night. We were greeted at the front door and given a tour which was awesome! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a weekend getaway in Florence!

Our group of 3 had a wonderful stay at this quirky, fun property. The place is very centrally located and is a short walk to sights and food in Florence. The owner was excellent with communication and met us to show us how to get in and assist us with getting settled. The complimentary bottle of Chianti was a very thoughtful touch. Would definitely stay here again.

Just wow!
This apartment was a dream! We loved our stay in Florence and this apartment made it all the more special. It was spacious and to say interesting is an understatement, it’s filled with incredible trinkets from all over the world. The location was excellent. We walked from the train station easily and then found ourselves in the heart of Florence. As a family of 5, the big kitchen and washing machine was an added bonus. From start to finish the booking process was easy. I would definitely recommend this magical apartment to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable and spacious stay in Florence.

Perfect Location for exploring Florence
It's a short walk to all the major sites and walkable to the Boboli Gardens and PItti Palace and other areas across the river. The apartment is truly unique, located in an ancient building and filled with the owner's lifetime of collections. Quiet, charming, and evocative.

Beautiful apartment in perfect location
My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights and loved it. The apartment had everything we could need and was close to all the major attractions without having a “touristy” vibe. Fabrizio was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely recommend to anyone staying in this beautiful city. Only warning - there are some windy stairs so it could be tough for those with mobility issues.
