Uffizi 4 Min Walk · 2 Bedrooms · Terrace With View

Two double bedrooms on a quiet street between Piazza della Signoria and Santa Croce: the Uffizi and Palazzo Vecchio 4 minutes on foot, Ponte Vecchio 6, the Duomo 8. Large kitchen, a dining table that doubles as a desk, bathroom with shower, air conditioning. From the building's terrace, the tower of Palazzo Vecchio. Third floor, no lift: we help with the luggage. Personal welcome, transfers, tours and restaurants booked for you: we're here for the whole stay.



The flat is yours alone: two bedrooms, kitchen, dining room and bathroom. The building's terrace is yours to use, shared with the guests of only one other flat. You can arrive at any hour with self check in (a key safe with the keys inside: we send you the code the day before) or, if you prefer, we'll meet you at the front door, show you around and carry up your luggage. Let us know your arrival time and we'll take care of the rest.

Third floor (fourth floor US style), no lift. If stairs are a problem for anyone in your party, tell us before booking: we'll suggest another of our homes. You come in through a small entrance hall on the third floor, shared with the other two flats: from there each one has its own door. There is one bathroom, with a shower. The terrace is shared with one other flat in the building: no music and no parties, and after 22:00 keep voices low. No smoking indoors. The historic centre is a restricted traffic zone (ZTL): do not drive in. We'll tell you where to park. Via dei Magalotti is in the Santa Croce district, halfway between Piazza della Signoria and the basilica: the part of the centre where Florentines still live. In four minutes on foot you're at the Uffizi and in front of Palazzo Vecchio, in six on Ponte Vecchio, in eight at the Duomo. Around the corner, Via de' Neri with its sandwich shops and trattorias, Piazza Santa Croce with the basilica and the leather workshops, the Sant'Ambrogio market for groceries and lunch the way locals do it. Cross the Ponte alle Grazie and in ten minutes you're in the Oltrarno and in San Niccolò, with its wine bars. By day the neighbourhood is lively, in the evening it stays quiet: you sleep in the centre without the noise of the centre. In Florence you can walk everywhere, and from here every monument is under ten minutes away. Santa Maria Novella station is 18 minutes on foot or 10 by taxi. From the airport, the T2 tram reaches the station in 20 minutes; or we arrange a private transfer that waits for you at the exit and brings you to the front door, luggage included. The historic centre is a restricted traffic zone with cameras at the entry points: do not drive in, the fine arrives weeks later. If you're coming by car, tell us in advance and we'll point you to a convenient garage outside the ZTL.
