About the Location
Situated in the esteemed Santa Croce neighborhood, the essence of old Florence surrounds the apartment, where cobbled streets lead to bustling markets and quaint artisan workshops. Nearby, the Mercato delle Pulci at Piazza dei Ciompi offers treasures from another era, while the Mercato St. Ambrogio buzzes with the city's culinary delights. Within a leisurely stroll you’ll find the banks of the Arno River and the city's cultural gems - the Duomo, the Uffizi Gallery and the iconic Ponte Vecchio. The airport is around 1 hour away by car or train.
Accommodation Details
The apartment has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. The apartment is based around the communal spaces: a sleek kitchen adorned with stainless steel appliances and expansive work surfaces, as well as 2 distinct living areas for relaxation. All 4 of the bedrooms have double beds and ensuite bathrooms. The apartment also has a private courtyard garden, a tranquil oasis full of luscious greenery.
Style Notes
Grand elegance. Housed within a venerable 15th-century noble building at the beating heart of the historical center, this residence has been curated by designer and architect Ilaria Sassolini. Minimalist aesthetics marry Florentine grandeur, where clean lines and a refined palette enhance the palatial splendor of the historical Palazzo. We love the handcrafted wardrobes, the warm mushroom tones in the bedrooms and the beautiful subtle fresco ceilings.

Florence, Tuscany
Art, architecture and an antique carousel
Known for its incredible art galleries, architecture and Michelangelo’s David, the capital of Tuscany has plenty for parents with an eye for beauty, and it doesn’t let the younger generation down either. Play hide and seek in Baroque gardens, seek out the best gelateria in the city (you need to test a few to be sure), or ride on the antique carousel in Piazza Repubblica. Take a guided tour of the Uffizi or try a fashion workshop for under 12s at the Gucci Museum. Eat pizza, climb the narrow corridor to the top of the Duomo or buy wooden toys at Bartolucci’s. Then start planning for your return visit.
