No problems to report. Host was good. Clean, lots of room, great neighborhood. Not the highest end furniture or beds if that is a concern, but no complaints. In general everything worked and we were very happy with the place
We enjoyed our stay at Petra Elegant. The location was perfect close to restaurants, shopping, the Ponte Vecchio and many of the beautiful sites Florence has to offer. The apartment was well taken care of clean and very comfortable for the six of us.
We really enjoyed this property! There was great communication leading up to check-in and the apartment was as described. Everything we needed was walkable and we had a great stay in Florence.
The place is beautiful and very walkable to many restaurants and sights. It can get a little noisy at times, but that is just being in the city center. The air conditioning in the main bedroom didn’t work, but it was cool enough for the most part that it didn’t affect our stay. All in all it was a wonderful place with plenty of room for our group of seven. It had everything you would need for an extended stay! If I was ever back in the area, I would stay again.
Wonderful, spacious property, full of character, giving us plenty of room for our party of 7.
The location is fantastic, in a vibrant but not overly busy local neighbourhood with plenty of nearby bars and restaurants. It is also a short walk over a bridge to the busy centre of Florence, so therefore it’s also a comfortable place to get back to quickly when you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Would definitely stay there again.
Easy to find, walkable from the train (though a bit ambitious at 25 minutes with luggage). Host communicated well and space was large and clean. Walked to everything in Florence. Highly recommend!
I agree with the other reviews. This is a great apartment in a great location with everything you could want within walking distance. We had a minor issue with the check-in process but I still definitely recommend this apartment. Also, for anyone planning to stay in September, be aware of the Florence Jazz Festival. It was located right across the street in the Piazza del Carmine the weekend we were there!
I can’t say enough good things about this property. It is huge and really lovely. The ceilings are so high you feel like you’re staying at a palace. The floor plan is open to accommodate groups comfortably but also gives enough areas to hide away when you need a break. We would definitely stay here again.
Perfect for our family of six. The apartment was extremely comfortable and beautiful and in a great location. The kitchen was great, we cooked our own Christmas dinner. Overall it met and exceeded our expectations. The Christmas decorations were very much appreciated !!
As advertised, a beautiful apartment right in the heart of Florence. Great location to be close to all the sights, but away from the busy tourist areas. More than enough space for our family of five. Would highly recommend!
The perfect place for a family reunion. The space was perfect for the six of us. The location was outstanding-so much to see and do (and shop and eat...). The check in process was flawless. Great communication. Great restaurant recommendations from the woman who checked us in. Thank you!
Charming and comfortable. AC worked great! Loved opening the windows to get the fresh morning breeze , birds singing, and the church bells chiming while eating breakfast. Food market, restaurants and gelato close by. A retreat away from the busy city. Would definitely stay again.
Great roomy property, true to pictures. Only issue was the second bathroom had a glass shower door that seemed broken and did not cover the space to the top of the tub, so floor got really wet. Other than that, great apartment.
Our family of 6 really enjoyed our stay at Petra Elegant in Florence. The location was perfect for us and there was lots of room for everyone. The kids especially loved the entrance to the building…. It is a bit like a castle! We had everything we needed to enjoy our 3 day stay. A couple small maintenance issues with the shower in the second bathroom but nothing serious. We would definitely stay here again.
There are really good restaurants just a few steps away and a grocery right around the corner. We walked to all the Florence attractions.
The church and piazza del Carmine are lovely, don’t miss the church as it is just outside your door.
Petra Elegant made us all so happy. We had a fantastic location , space for the five of us, light and views from every window, air conditioning, and a full kitchen. Two bathrooms , washing machine, large dining room, and luxurious space to spread out in. One of our favorite thrills was being on the Square, and hearing the bells from the chapel. We would love to return. Thank you. grazie ! Ciao!
The apartment itself (layout, comfort, spaciousness, location) is a definite 5 out of 5. Easy walking access to all of Florence's wonders while avoiding the throngs of tourists. Having lived in Florence, I can honestly say that Oltrarno (San Frediano, Santo Spirito) is the ideal spot to stay for your holiday. 4 incredible pizzerias within a 5 minute walk of the apartment as well of a slew of the best restaurants in Florence south of the Arno river.
The only suggestion I would make for the apartment is to include more essentials. There is a dishwasher but no dishwasher tabs or liquid. We had to purchase a 15 pack of tabs for a 5 day stay. Most places will include at least 1-2 tabs. We had no tea towels, paper towels or napkins. There is an oven but no tea towels or oven mits or tongs. We had to use our bath towels to remove a roast from the oven. Little details would have made a better overall impression.
As mentioned, however, the apartment itself is quite wonderful as a whole. I would recommend it for a larger group.
This property had a lot of space and was located within walking distance to restaurants, gelaterias, bakeries, shopping, etc. We had one issue with the air conditioning which we were using at night. It's loud to leave the windows open, and the rooms to get warm even in October. Every 5 minutes there would be a banging sound coming from the wall of the air unit. We ended up having to not use the air, open windows, and deal with the noise. The host did tell me they were going to hire someone to fix this issue.
Die Lage war ideal, die Wohnung groß und geräumig.
Probleme hatten wir im Bad mit einer kleinen Überschwemmung. Eine fehlende Abdichtung der Dusche war der Grund in Bad 1, ein verstopfter Abfluss Grund im zweiten Bad. So schnell waren diese Mängel nicht zu beheben, man hat uns zusätzliche Handtücher zur Verfügung gestellt, das war ok. Es gab an der Küche eine Gittertür nach draußen, zu der der Schlüssel fehlte. Wir bekamen leider zu spät den Hinweis, dass der Schlüssel in einem Küchenschrank lag. Es wäre schön gewesen, wir hätten den kleinen Balkon von Beginn an nutzen können. Aber alles in allem würden wir Petra elegant gern wieder nutzen.
Our family loved this beautiful property! The location was simply perfect for everything we wanted to do. Communication and ease of checking in was wonderful and helped make our stay all the more fabulous.
This was a comfortable spot in a convenient walking location. Every bedroom was used, as were the kitchen appliances, and dining table. We all would return! The host was accommodating and easy to communicate with, throughout our stay. The AC in one bedroom was a little loud for that occupant, and the keys took some time and jiggling to get doors open, but everyone appreciated HAVING AC, and loved the place. We would stay here again, and found it beautifully located within walking distance of coffee, breakfast, Culinaria (for dinner - highly recommend) and all the must-see sites in Firenze.
