This top-floor apartment in a swish aparthotel ticks boxes we didn't even know we had. From personalised recommendations to daily continental breakfasts, your host goes above and beyond to ensure your stay is something to remember. Traditional accents like exposed beams and Cocciopesto Venezano mosaic tiles have us swooning – and they pair perfectly with the more contemporary details (our eye is on that soaker bath in the main suite). A sofa bed for two offers flexible sleeping arrangements, and a private terrace tops it all off. It's the ideal spot to enjoy an Aperol Spritz after an adventure around Florence's historic centre – which, conveniently, is only a twenty-minute stroll away.

Home truths:
*At full capacity, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the lounge.
*Though you'll have your own private outdoor area here, there's also a communal rooftop terrace in the building that's shared with other residents.
*Continental breakfast is included with your stay.
*Free parking isn't provided, but a car isn't needed in Florence. Instead of driving, we suggest exploring on foot.
