A Fantabulous Dreaming Terrace in FLORENCE Ponte Vecchio
On the second floor of a beautiful historic building, Casa Leopardi is on two levels (living / sleeping area) and offers a beautiful terrace with stunning views over the rooftops of Florence. The building where it is located, which takes its name from the hilly road ("coast" in the Florentine tradition) dedicated to San Giorgio, is just Oltrarno, 30 meters from Ponte Vecchio and only 10 minutes walk from the Santa Maria Novella Station. The history of the structure is lost over time, preserving only some indisputable traces of its past. Among these, the marble inscription of the eighteenth century in which it is testified the use of the building as an oratory of Santa Maria Maddalena in previous centuries.

This apartment is beautiful! It’s in a perfect location - central to everything but on a quiet street, with an amazing view of Florence from every single window. The balcony is just amazing. The instructions were clear, and check in/out were very easy. We stayed at a few different places around Italy during this trip, and this was the best one by far. Would highly recommend!
We loved the apartment and we were conveniently located to the Ponte Vecchio as well as less than a mile from the train. The only miscommunication was that it is a 2 bedroom, not a 3 bedroom, but there is a hide-a-bed in the living room. Thank you!
A beautiful Tuscan style two bedroom right across the river. Fantastic location and cozy stay with a nice little balcony. Host was very nice too. Will be back!
This was a great spot. The location was so convenient and the apartment itself was easy to stay at with comfortable beds and useable kitchen and bathroom.
This apartment is in the perfect location - within walking distance to so many sites, shops and restaurants. And it’s comfortable and quiet at night. We slept great in the comfortable beds. We hope to return!
Comfortable home right by the Arno river. Easy to find and easy to access everywhere in Florence. Nice quiet neighborhood to rest at the end of the day.
The apartment was cute & spacious and the location was great. Elevator helps with luggage. Be aware the "dryer" is a rack not electric, wish the beds had been more comfortable
We loved our stay here! We enjoyed staying in a lovely Italien neighborhood rather than a busy hotel. The flat is beautiful and clean. The bed is comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the small balcony in the evening. There’s even a small lift so you don’t have to drag luggage up the stairs. Would stay again in a heartbeat!
We had an amazing time in Florence. The apartment was very clean and well maintained. The beds were comfortable. The air conditioning worked really well in the master bedroom & living room. We had everything we needed. We had a great time and are looking forward to coming back!
Great accommodations with grocery store 5 minutes from the place. Beautiful spacious VRBO. Balcony view. Awesome location near Arno River and across from Ufizi. Host could provide better communication but overall, I would stay there again. Area is safe.
Great location, comfortable, spacious, view, parking
This was a perfect location for Florence. It's removed from the crowds, quiet, but immediately accessible to everything and 2 parking garages immediately nearby. The larger bed is very comfortable but the smaller 1-person bed (a cot really) has bars and was not suitable for our 6' son. Conad immediately nearby, restaurants, all very convenient. Balcony tiny but very nice, lovely view. Note: we paid much more here in Florence for tourist tax than elsewhere, also be very careful dealing w/Serena the host.
The apartment is spacious and centrally located with a lovely view from the small patio. You will need to climb steps to reach the building -- not a big deal, but if anyone in your group has mobility issues, this should be considered. Overall the property was well maintained and clean (although the tub/shower could use a refresh).
The location is wonderful. This is not, however, a 3 bedroom. It is a 2 bedroom and a pull out couch in the living room. It is well appointed and clean. The view is awesome from the balcony. We did get stuck in the elevator for over an hour one evening late, even though we adhered to the 3 person maximum. If you choose to use the elevator, make sure you have your cell phone!

The apartment is very spacious and the location is great. One thing to note is that to get to the building, there is a steep hill. So just note for the walk with the suitcases. That said, the location is great. Being on the other side of Ponte Vechio also gives you access to two garages (reserve in advance) which is convenient if you’re coming by car.

This was a great place to stay, and having a washing machine saved us as it was super hot in July. Also, the AC worked better than any other place we stayed in Italy, so that was a huge plus, as well. Yes, the property is older, but it is so cute and it was so nice to have two rooms for the three of us. They had a binder of information that was helpful, as well. I would totally recommend staying here.

This place was so adorable. It was exactly as described. It was clean, had air and my favorite was the view! Thank goodness for the washer as 2 of travelers luggage never arrived to Italy so we needed to use the washer! I would absolutely stay here again!!
It was super easy to check in and when we walked in it was perfect for our group of 4. The bathroom is shared by the two rooms upstairs and the couch downstairs turns into a bed. The balcony is cute and the shower works very well. The area is perfect, quiet but by some nice restaurants. In the morning you can take a nice run by the river. Overall great place to stay for our short stop over in Florence.
Location was perfect. Tucked away enough but also among the energy of the city. Conad (aka grocery store) is 2 minutes away and the views are just stunning. Only complaint is the mosquitos. I used to live in Florence and I know they are hard to avoid, but be prepared because most houses here do not have screens and windows should be sealed tightly at dusk. Host had bug spray and air repellent at the house which was thoughtful. Easy check in process and very clean place. The bed was the most comfortable bed and duvet ever. I actually took a picture of the mattress so I can remember!! Thank you so much.

We loved our stay in this flat. The location is absolutely perfect. There were only two of us so we had a lot of room with having the small second bedroom. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was small but it had everything we needed as we did cook a few meals. The balcony is small but we were able to fit comfortably and enjoy the weather. I would recommend this property and would choose this again if we go back to Florence. There are stairs leading up to the flat which were no problem for us but could be for some. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
