19TH CENTURY LUXURY - A STONE’S THROW FROM UFFIZI

What we love about this apartment:

The three bed apartment is set in a 19th century palazzo and a treat for history lovers. The Santa Croce district puts famous landmarks like the Uffizi Gallery just a stone's throw away, as well as a variety of places to eat and drink. Though the lift doesn't quite reach the fourth floor, this home provides a thoughtful space with a desk for business travelers, and roomy bathrooms for relaxing soaks. The fully equipped kitchen has all the major amenities required to provide all the house comfort’s. After a busy day of Florentine sightseeing, the terrace is a lovely spot to clink your glasses together while watching a sunset over the skyline.

Santa Croce is a trendy, architecturally impressive neighborhood that’s less busy than the Duomo or San Marco districts. It’s located in the eastern part of Florence’s historic center. It's perfect for visitors who want to weave in between monuments down charming narrow side streets, and the more culinary inclined might want to take advantage of the Tuscan produce on offer at the markets, or visit the many local-owned cafes and restaurants.
