The location is so central that you can easily get back home any time of the day for a quick rest or a bite and go out again to visit this magnificent city.

And if you like to try the very best food you have a choice of restaurants and, most of all, you are at 10 min. walking from one of the oldest and most famous market in Florence, The Sant'Ambrogio market where you can buy the most exquisite traditional food.. and as far as ice-cream is concerned, Vivoli (the most famous one) is at 3 min walking

Florence is on the main fast trains line that connects all the main italian cities: Rome, Milan, Naples, Bologna.. on this line trains run every 20/30 minutes and the rides are definetely much shorter than a car trip.
Also from Venice fast trains are available and a train ride from Pisa airport takes only 1.10 hour..
So if you plan to take a car just to reach Florence we strongly recommend to check trains instead.

But in case you should have it, we will be glad to give you all the informations you may need for entering and parking in this area.

Wonderful stay in the middle of Florence

We had a wonderful stay in Florence although the weather was really bad with heavy rain and flooding in parts of Florence. But our host Simona was very caring and worried about our safety during the flood and kept us updated all the time. The apartment is very nice and everything is in walking distance.

We loved our stay in Simona's place. So comfortable and centrally located. Right around the corner from our favorite coffee place. Simona was incredibly communicative before and during our stay whenever we had a question. We will absolutely stay here in the future.

Fantastic Apartment

Very well appointed apartment. Ultra clean, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen and a washing machine. Updated bathroom with good water pressure and lots of hot water. The outdoor terrace is a gem…great place for morning coffee and afternoon aperativo. Apartment is on a small side street and is close to major sights, shopping, restaurants. Simona was very responsive to all of our queries. She met us on arrival and explained all we needed to know, including how to operate the washing machine (which was easy). Highly recommend this apartment.

A return visit - lovely accommodation just as remembered

The apartment is very central and faces a beautiful old church. It is lovingly decorated with thoughtful provisions covering all one needs for a stay. Simona is a great host always and offers a perfect balance of privacy and help with inquiries if needing knowledge/support. Simona booked a taxi for help with my luggage and this was a much appreciated act of kindness. Florence is very busy since I visited 10 years ago. However due to this apartments proximity to many districts it’s a good base for early morning or late evening cultural visits when the crowds are distracted with sleeping or dining. The increased tourist crowds in Florence can make it incredibly noisy even for a city , but this apartment is tucked away on a relatively quiet street given its central location , which is much welcomed . The added use of a terrace with character is the bonus feature for warmer temperatures and if the temperature drops there’s a lounge with great character. The apartment has great security and being central in a city feels safe. It is easy to walk to Oltrano and the gardens across the river for nature and calm . Its final bonus is the easy walking distance to quieter areas of Florence where the company of locals is refreshing and offers a more authentic off the beaten track option to the main sights.

An Unforgettable Stay in the Heart of Florence!

Our stay at this apartment in the core of Florence was nothing short of amazing. The location was perfect, putting us within walking distance of all the wonderful places Florence has to offer. The apartment itself was beautifully furnished and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was well-equipped, the bedrooms were cozy, and the living area was a great place for our family to unwind after a day of exploring. We truly enjoyed our time here and felt like we were living in the heart of Florence’s rich history and culture. We highly recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a memorable stay in this beautiful city!

Beautiful, perfect location

The patio was my favorite place to begin and end my day. The condo had everything we needed for our family to cook the meals we wanted, and Simone gave amazing recommendations for the times we did not want cook. While we often lost our way wandering Florence, it seemed our home was always just 5 minutes away! Such a great place, in a beautiful city.

Incredible Location

Simona's apartment is in a wonderful location close to Signoria, the Uffizi, Accademia, Ponte Vecchio, and other locations in the central historic area. You are also right next to Santa Croce and a stone's throw away from the Santo Spirito across the Arno. The apartment is very clean and comfortable with a wonderful terrace to enjoy coffee in the morning or an evening discussion of the days events. The apartment is close to everything but also tucked away from busier streets. We had a great time on this return trip to Florence.

Florence with family

What a fantastic apartment in the heart of Florence! My family (5) and I stayed at this gem of an apartment which is just a stones throw from the bustling heart of the city. Simona, our host, was incredibly gracious with her time and taking care of my families needs. She was very communicative and made sure everything and everyone was taken care of completely. Thank you Simona!! We will definitely be back and stay here. Lots of great nearby restaurants, coffee shops and cafes. This place is a must. Don’t hesitate. You won’t be disappointed.

Lovely and cozy apartment

Simona is an amazing host, it’s a privilege to stay with her. We have never been so well taken care of by a VRBO host. She communicated throughout my planning and made wonderful recommendations. The apartment is even lovelier than photos. Her sister met us in the morning to lock up our baggage so we could still explore while waiting check in. Simona met us for a. Early checkin and showed us around apartment and made sure we understood how everything worked. She didn’t rush through and put us at such ease. The apartment is well equipped and generous. She provided a wonderful book with tons of info and told us to contact her anytime. The location is near everything but on a off side street so you are away from crowds. Simona arranged for a cab to take us to train for our early departure which was very kind. I just cannot say enough about this beautiful soul and gracious host.

Great location and amazing host

This property is ideally situation in a central location, walkable to everything and is as described. Very comfortable and well furnished/equipped flat. For us, the most amazing was the host! Simona saved our vacation. My wife broke a tooth and was in need of emergency dental work - during Italian holiday period, so most clinics were closed. Simona searched around for us and found someone to take care of us. Simona was quick, caring and very helpful in our time of need. I would recommend this host and her property to anyone!

Perfect apartment, great location

Simona greeted and oriented us to the apartment and neighborhood that was located in walking distance to everything ! We had access to restaurants, shopping and histrionical sites just steps away. You cannot beat this location. The apt was clean, had all amenities, and our home away from home. When we had any questions, Simona was responsive and went beyond to help us. Our son had become I’ll and she even arranged a house call by a local clinic doctor! I cannot say enough about how wonderful Simona and our stay was. Highly recommended. I would stay here again on my next Firenze visit.

About the host

Hosted by Simona Tofani

Host profile image
I am Simona, a florentine in love with Florence as well as a traveler who loves to know other cultures and people… so This apartment has been appointed with love and care to provide a “home away from home” experience

Why they chose this property

The apartment is in the center of the historic center of Florence! So close to every main site but still in a quiet road.. it’s so easy to walk everywhere and be able to get back home anytime of the day for a quick rest.. and out again!

What makes this property unique

The apartment belongs to a main building dated back to the 14th century, but it has the privilege to have its own private entrance shared only by the other apartment we own on the same floor.. and most of all, the cozy terrace partially covered is a real plus and can be enjoyed all year long
