Our stay was absolutely amazing. Fabrizio and Diego were very kind and friendly. Check in was easy and thorough with Diego providing us all directions. Location was great and very walkable. The place offered all needed amenities (I.e., washer & dryer, AC, and even a lift!) Only hang ups are the amount of stairs and the tiny bathroom. Otherwise, fantastic place!

Perfect location!

We had a great stay here! It is walking distance to everything. The unit is spacious, has everything you might need and the air conditioning worked very well and fans were also available. There are a lot of stairs to climb to get to the apartment and a tiny elevator to utilize for luggage. And as the listing and other reviews state, the bathroom is very small. We are fairly small people and it worked out just fine, but I can see how larger people may have an issue with it.

Location, location, location!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Florentine Renaissance apartment. It was spacious, comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. Best of all was the location. We were able to walk everywhere, rarely needing to get a cab. Central market is located right behind the apartment where you are able to find some great deals. We enjoyed the Tratorria Zaza restaurant around the corner (reservations highly recommended). Ate there a couple of times. Food is delicious and reasonable. Fabrizio and Diego were great with communication. Highly recommend!

A great spot on a very safe street in a fantastic location. We were a family of 4 and the only small issue would be the bathroom is tiny, otherwise fantastic and we’d stay here again.

Fantastic Florence Find!

My friend and I stayed at this property for a week and it was perfect. It has a chic and historic vibe, and the location couldn’t be better. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go in town and felt safe doing so from the location. Diego helped us get settled and brought us bread for breakfast, and the host provided wine as well. We loved our stay here and would absolutely book again!

What a unique spot right in the heart of Florence!!

This place is perfectly situated in one of the best parts of Florence. We were able to walk EVERYWHERE, even with 3 kids. There was also a helpful supermarket around the corner for basics and a contact who was there for us at any point of the stay if we had questions or needed recommendations. We loved it!!

Spectacular Location

Close to the train station and the Duomo. The livingroom and bedroom are very big but the bathroom is very small. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. It was great to have the elevator to bring our luggage up. The small shower was a challenge for us as we are both tall.The hosts are helpful and communication was excellent.

Fabrizo's home was spacious for my husband and me. The bathroom was very small but it had the best water pressure on our month long excursion to Italy.

Great location. Walkable to points of interest and restaurants, markets and cafes nearby. Well lit at night and felt safe. Fabrizio also provides small group wine tours in Tuscany region, which we did and would recommend. Great scenic stops with wine tastings and don’t have to worry about a thing. Thanks Fabrizio!

Exceeded Expectations

I cannot say enough about our three nights spent at The Florentine Renaissance (Duomo). The host was very accommodating and went out of their way to take care of us. My wife & I loved the eclectic, quirky interior design which was very spacious and comfortable. The location was perfect for walking to any location throughout the city of Florence. If you are able to book one of the private tours offered by the host, Fabrizio, do not hesitate. Fabrizio is a gem and a true Italian Gentleman. He took my wife & I on a private tour through the Chianti region visiting small villages for shopping and cappuccinos as well as unique private wine tours. This was one of the highlights of our ten day trip to Italy and Fabrizio's kind spirit, knowledge of the area and connections to the locals exceeded our expectations for the day. We cannot thank him enough.

Apartment Rental in Florence

Our stay was great! This apartment is in downtown Florence and three blocks from a number of great historic sites. The cafes and restaurants in the areas are wonderful--great variety. The apartment was so convenient for us and we could walk wherever we needed to from our rental. Really lovely! Fabricio, the owner, was available and responded to questions right away. Great location and stay!
