You won’t have to go far to see the sights when you stay at this central apartment. It’s a short stroll from both Santa Croce basilica and Piazza della Signoria, Florence’s main square. Florence Cathedral (better known as the Duomo) and the Uffizi Galleries are also nearby, so all you really need to remember is to pack your walking shoes. Inside the apartment, there’s a small yet comfortable living area, with a kitchen and dining space – although there are restaurants aplenty nearby if you'd prefer not to cook. The lounge might be a little cosy if six of you are staying, but with so much to do on your doorstep, you’ll probably spend most of your time out and about in the historic city.

Home truths:
*The apartment is on the second floor without a lift.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
*The apartment is located in the Limited Traffic Zone. If you're arriving by car, your host can arrange for your vehicle to parked at the nearby Garage Bargello on request.
