Views of Basilica di San Lorenzo steal the show at this sleek apartment set right in the beating heart of Florence's historic centre. It's a scene best admired from the dining table over a lazy brunch – or curled up in bed with that second coffee if you're taking things slow. The living area is divided by a glass door that leads to the bedroom, where you'll also find a double sofa bed. A second sofa bed in the lounge as well, making this ideal for families or friends who don't mind sharing space. Set overlooking an open-air market, while the views and bustle are charming, expect to hear some street noise here.
