Holiday Rental Description

One of a collection of apartments in a stately mansion in the centre of Florence, this home manages to retain some of the building's grand period features while also incorporating contemporary features.

Both the living area and bedroom benefit from high vaulted ceilings that are embellished with intricate decorations. These contrast rather strikingly with the sleek minimalist kitchen, glossy floor tiling and muted grey furnishings. Add to that a stylishly designed bathroom that wouldn't look out of place in a spa and you've got an address that feels distinctly Florentine without being stuck in time.

If that wasn't enough, many of the city's most famous attractions sit within easy walking distance of the home. The Piazza della Indipendenza and its statues are three minutes away on foot, while Accademia Gallery and Michaelangelo's David are less than ten minutes' walk.


Home truths:
*There's no private parking available, but there is a public parking nearby which costs €40 per day and does not require reservation. The city's train station is only fifteen minutes' walk away
*The flat is on the second floor with lift access
*Your host owns multiple apartments within this building, so the exact view, furnishings and layout might differ from the photos
