Little penthouse with amazing view over the historical center.

The small attic offers an enchanting 180 ° view over the historic center of Florence. It is located a few minutes from Santa Maria Novella station, and is well connected to the airport and public transport in the city, and is located in a lively neighborhood with many shops and restaurants.

The house is a unique space consisting of:

From the large sunny windows you can see the Duomo, the Medici Chapels, the Palazzo Vecchio, and also San Miniato and Piazzale Michelangelo, practically the entire historic center.

Finally, the large terrace completes the property: a 50 m² space where you can relax, have meals or drink a good glass of wine, admiring the spectacular 180 ° view of its center of Florence and its millenary beauty .

Beautiful view within walking distance of city center
We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment. It was well furnished, the bed was super comfortable and the outdoor area was fantastic. The city center is an easy 20 minute walk, but the apartment itself is situated in a nice neighborhood with shops, restaurants, etc.. Would definitely stay here if we visit Florence again.

Penthouse in Florence
Spacious room with sofa and seating, full kitchen, and amazing terrace overlooking Florence. Take the time to read the hosts notes on restaurants locally and other tips for visiting the area. We spent most of the time on the terrace when we were there, a lovely view of the city and the surrounding areas. Very easy communication with the host - Enjoy!

Beautiful little penthouse
We had a wonderful stay here! The penthouse is all updated and cleaned. It has a beautiful view of the city from the terrace. We were also close to some shops and restaurants, so it was very convenient, as well. It is easy to get to from the train station, and the check in process was smooth. We would absolutely stay here again!

We truly enjoyed our stay in this lovely flat. Every day we hopped on the local tram and a quick 3 stops we were in the heart of Florence, sometimes we walked it too. Every evening we enjoyed a glass of Chianti on the spacious patio overlooking the city. Highly recommend this property!

Perfect!! Great location! Very clean!
This is a great location for visiting Florence. Easy to get in and out of the city and the neighborhood has a couple great bakeries and places to get a drink and some food. The apartment is clean and very comfortable to come back to after a day of sightseeing. The view from the patio is great while having morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. We loved staying here.

Great place. Great location for our needs.
Wonderful apartment with a great rooftop patio. Very convenient to transportation(tram is just down the block that takes you to aor port/ city center/train station) and local food/shops. Host was extremely good at communicating with us in helping us get situated. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a nice place just outside of the city center. I will stay again if we make it back here someday.

Florence
It was our first time in Florence, the location is so close to all the museums and the Doma we had breakfast every morning in a different café facing the Basilica. The shopping was great; we bought many souvenirs for our staff and family. I highly recommend this place and intend to stay here again when I return.

Great apartment with fantastic private rooftop terrace
We spent 5 days in Florence recently and loved the penthouse apartment. Very convenient to the train station and out of the hustle of tourist areas. Clean, well appointed, and sitting on the terrace at sunset cannot be beat. Wonderful, low key neighborhood stores/restaurants.

Sweet Loft 7 minutes from the heart of Florence
Its a lovely flat with a great outdoor patio . In 5 minutes on a rental bike your in the heart of town . We were able to find parking near by for our rental car which is great since its almost impossible to find parking inside the inner ring of the city . All in all a nice place to stay for a few days

Decided to book something else after arriving on site
Property was dirty, outdoor furniture had stains, there were bugs all over the porch, and the view of the duomo was blocked by cranes and a construction site. We got there and realized this wasn’t for us so we booked another hotel for our stay.

A different experience in Florence away from city center
The penthouse is a lovely place outside city center. We enjoyed taking the tram and the corner bar for our coffee breaks. Great view and clean. We could have stayed longer and cooked and enjoyed the terrace but we were short on time. I had a hard time communicating with the owner in the VRBO site on my phone in italy. I would receive a message and it was blank when I wanted to respond, which was frustrating. A bit expensive in my opinion since nothing was included in the price for 2 adults and one minor.

Comfortable stay
This rental was as described and very comfortable for two. The host was beyond accommodating, even assisting with taxi’s for some wedding festivities we were attending (taxis are tricky in Florence). There is construction noise daily, but we were there to see the sites and used the spacious terrace in the evenings. Some may find the apt. Is a bit far, but we thought great location, away from the busy noise, 5 minute walk to train, 20 minutes to most great sites and central market (which we stopped by frequently). Would highly recommend a stay here if visiting Florence.
