About this property

Apartment in a 13th Century palace in the heart of Florence

Unusual, romantic apartment full of atmosphere in one of Florence's oldest areas - that once occupied by the Roman amphitheatre. Indeed, the street takes its name from one of the principal entrances into the arena. Just 50m from the church of Santa Croce Church, 200m from Piazza Signoria, 100m from Piazza del Duomo, 200m from the Uffizzi Gallery and Ponte Vecchio, and 10m from Vivoli, Florence's best known ice cream parlour!! The apartment, on the first floor of this antique palazzo, is accessed via a flight of 24 steps (no elevator). It offers 2 double bedrooms (one with a French bed - 140x200 cm ), which look onto the open plan sitting room area, a fully appointed kitchen, a marble dining table for 6. It is tastefully furnished with the owner's personal belongings and is equipped with a TV, DVD and CD player, stereo, WI-FI, dishwasher, washing-machine, air cond
Just walking through the central courtyard of this beautiful Palazzo is a journey to the heart of historic Florence. Centrally located, it is perfect for sight seeing, shopping and food markets, discovering cosy trattorie and bars, as well as artists' and artisans' ateliers.
Good for 2 up to 4 guests ( 5 guests on request )

Charming and quirky in the best position
Fabrizio’s place is just like him - warm and quirky. Go on one of his offered tours, you’ll love it. Communication was easy, the apartment is just a few minutes from everything including all the well known sites and great food. A comfortable, home away from home to pretend you’re Italian just for a minute. Thanks Fabrizio!

I cannot say enough. Fabrizio met us at the train station and gave us a quick tour. The apartment was everything I expected. I want to say that I had scheduled this apt. last Oct 2013 and had to cancel at the last minute and Fabrizio was wonderful to work with. Fabrizio also scheduled and did the Siena tour with wine tasting for us and it was a wonderful day and great food. I will book this apt again when I return.

Everything we wanted and more
My wife and I enjoyed the cleanliness, character, and location of the apartment, all at a reasonable price. We didn't even need the upstairs bedroom (also, I am tall - 6'6" - and would have hit my head on the beams upstairs). Fabrizio answered every question promptly leading up to our arrival and accommodated the fact that our flight was late. We felt like we were at home. We would definitely go back.
