We enjoyed the location of the property, five minute walk to the Arno river. There was a spectacular courtyard as soon as you walked into the property. Only one flight of stairs to carry suitcases. Having air conditioning was welcomed when staying in July. Only negative was to access one of the bedrooms, you had to enter via the bathroom (which if someone was using,not possible) or enter through the other bedroom. Nowhere to open out a suitcase in either bedroom.

Great location. Easy to get to anywhere in Florence.

We stayed here for 9 days and everything was as described. Easy check in and clear instructions for checking out. We came in by train and the cab ride was 20 euros. We only had to use taxis 3 times. Going to train station twice and once for an early morning tour. Highly recommend.

Ideal Florence Apartment

Absolutely LOVED this apartment ! The remodel was well done on this 1600’s building.All the convenience of a modern apartment in a well maintained historic building . The location is perfect for walking to all our destinations, yet we felt more like a local in our neighborhood and not a tourist in the crowds . Would highly recommend & would stay there again .

Amazing Florence!

We had such a wonderful time, in such a beautiful location. It was so close to every wonderful thing to experience in Florence (Ufizzi, Piazza Michelangelo, Ponte Vecchio). The moment upon seeing the apartment garners and immediate "Ohh wow!" response. Brunelleschi nailed it! Wonderful stay at an amazing apartment! Can't wait to return some awesome day!

Perfect location in historical palazzo

This is the second time we’ve stayed at palazzo Bardi, with Roberta as our host. We stayed for a total of seven nights perfect amount for seeing the sites of Florence.Roberta was available and accommodating to all of our needs. We were able to message her and get replies almost immediately. There was very little to contact her about. The apartment is beautiful with painted star ceilings

As with other reviewers, I can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was. My friend had never stayed in a VRBO before; she has now said she would never stay in a hotel again on trips like ours.Roberta got in touch with us shortly after booking -- which was about three mo in advance -- with some additional, detailed information, which also let us know that we were on her radar; sometimes I tend to stress about whether a reservation has actually gotten to the host. She promptly responded to questions we had in the interim. She contacted us again just before we arrived, to confirm what time we would like to check in, then met us in person. She has compiled a "house book" with everything from manual pages for using the washing machine to top recommendations for local gelaterias, which was incredibly helpful.The apartment itself was more spacious than we'd expected, with a complete kitchen, washer, dishwasher, coffeemaker, and had ample closet space, a lot of hangers and a large, collapsible clothes-drying rack. It is ideally located -- 5 min walk to Santa Croce and a supermarket; maybe 12-15 to the Duomo; about the same to Ponte Vecchio; 2 min to a street with a lot of small shops, restaurants, and a very good gelateria. Even though it is on a busy street, the windows face either over the courtyard or over a side street, so it was quiet; we had no trouble sleeping.If I'm ever lucky enough to make it back to Florence, this is where I'll stay. Grazie mille, Roberta!

Roberta was great. She was very responsive and considerate and helped with anything we asked for. My husband didn’t love the location at first but then it grew on us. The restaurant in the building was great too and told us about the history of the building which helped us to really appreciate the apartment and the building even more.

Great stay near center city

Lovely property with immense history located in a walkable neighborhood close to many local sights. Roberta was very communicative - there was a little hiccup with check in timing but it worked out in the end. Would definitely reccomend to anyone travelling to Florence if they want to stay in a truly historic place with personality not a hehnric hotel rom. than
