What an incredible place and exactly as described. Our family of 4 stayed there and we could not have asked for a better host and place. I hope we get the opportunity to visit again.
This is an amazing apartment. Gorgeous, close to a park, spacious and quiet. Matilde is a gracious host who lives nearby and is available when needed. 10/10 for sure!!!
Great apartment in an elevator building in walking distance of all the main sites in Florence and lots of good restaurants. Quite clean and very secure. Two king bedrooms with 3 bathrooms, a washer and dryer and modern kitchen made for a very comfortable stay. All Good
This was such a beautiful stay! Close to everything and my main thing was cold AC and this whole house was cold and felt so good! Matilda was so nice and met us to show us everything. Lovely home and I cannot wait to go back! I highly recommend this!!
The apartment was lovely and in a great location. Every room in the apartment was up to date with very comfortable and high quality furniture. The beds were outstanding and the linens were of the highest quality. The apartment is very safe with multiple security measures in place. There is a grocery store and bank nearby so that was a nice surprise. The owner was awesome to work with through the entire process. She met us at the building initially and stayed in regular contact with us. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the space and commented several times how nice the apartment was. We will certainly try and reserve this apartment the next time we are in Florence.
I typically don't bother with reviews. But I must, this apartment was simply beautiful. Near train station, caffe across the street. Walking distance from markets, shops, tours and sights that are a must see.We stayed 7 days in August. Does get very warm in Florence but the apartment handled it very well, for a break from the heat.Matilda was a excellent host easy to communicate with, I recommend listening to her explanation of location because google makes it difficult. Highly recommend. Slept 6 adults comfortably 2 couples had large rooms and 2 adult children had the "loft area" .Laundry made it great, we could have down sized bags and brought way less.
The apartment is really nice. It fit our family of five adults perfectly. It was especially convenient to have three full bathrooms! We loved having a washer and dryer as we packed only a carry on for 23 days. The apartment is how it is pictured. It was decorated really cute. Most of the sites we saw were within walking distance.
After some brutal heat in London and Paris without air conditioning, our stay in Florence in this property was a breath of fresh air. Although Firenze was not as hot the air-conditioning made the stay that much more enjoyable. There was a noticeable attention to detail in cleanliness, and I have only pleasant feedback to report. The proximity to restaurants, shopping, train station was also a plus. I would love to stay here again should we return.
The apartment was beautiful and very clean. Plenty of space, the bedrooms were large and had their own bathrooms. Pull out futons and king beds were all comfortable. Matilda was so helpful and responsive. She had bottled waters and coffee available. The washer and dryer were great to have and I wish we stayed longer! It was convenient to the train station and to the tourist attractions. Beautiful property, definitely recommend.
Beautiful and clean apartment! This was the perfect space for our family of five. Matilda was a wonderful host, and she was very thorough with communication. From the minute we walked in, everything looked so clean and organized. The apartment had everything we needed- it was very spacious and had comfortable beds for our entire family. After a long day walking around Florence it was a perfect place to come back to (and had the best air conditioning!) We hope to come back again and stay here!
The location was wonderful and the place was beautiful and very safe. Matilda was very attentive and helpful with any questions we had. I would highly recommend to any friend or family
Love our stay here! Everything was perfect! The location, the rooms, and the hospitality. Tons of restaurants nearby and close proximity to many attractions. Matilda was a great hostess through and through. She even helped us call a cab when our calls wouldn’t go through. I would highly recommend this place for all future travelers.
The apartment was extremely clean. We loved the location, it was a little bit off the normal path so it was quiet, but close enough to easily get anywhere. We felt very safe in the building / apartment too. Check in was extremely easy. Matilda met us at the apartment and showed us everything. Would stay here again. Thank you.
The apartment is beautifully decorated and appointed with everything you need for your stay. I stayed for 4 nights with my wife and 3 children. Everyone slept well and was very comfortable. The apartment is about a 7-10 minute walk from the Cathedral and surrounded by many wonderful restaurants. I highly recommend this property!
The apartment was fabulous. Location was ideal. Close to everything including city center and train station but quieter than a lot of the neighborhood’s in the area. Matilda excelled at communication which made the entire process seamless.
Matilda is an amazing host who was fully responsive to every need. The property is clean and beautiful. The location is ideal, not in the throngs of tourists but walking distance to tourist sites and train station.
Beautiful 3-level apartment in impeccable condition! Matilda was so accommodating and kind to my family. It was our first time in Europe and this apartment was the perfect stay for our family of six! Thank you!
I am Italian and have always loved welcoming people from all over the world to Florence. Hosting allows me to share not only a home, but also the beauty, history, and atmosphere of this extraordinary city.
I enjoy helping guests feel comfortable and at ease from the moment they arrive, offering a personal welcome and tips so they can experience Florence like a local. My goal is to make every stay feel authentic, relaxed, and memorable.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it offers the perfect balance between being in the heart of Florence and enjoying a more authentic, residential atmosphere. Piazza Indipendenza is just a short walk from the Duomo and the city’s main museums, yet it is quieter and less crowded than the busiest tourist streets.
What I love most is that you can explore everything on foot during the day — historic sites, markets, cafés, and restaurants — and then return to a peaceful setting in the evening. It allows guests to experience Florence not only as visitors, but as if they were living here.
What makes this property unique
What truly makes this property unique is its rare combination of space, historic character, and privacy in the heart of Florence.
At 160 sqm, it offers generous living areas that are uncommon in the historic center, allowing guests to relax comfortably rather than simply “stay” in a small city apartment. The home is located in an elegant historic Florentine palace with an elevator — a feature that is quite rare in buildings of this period.
Another distinctive element is the layout: two large double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom, provide privacy and comfort that are ideal for couples traveling together or families. With three full bathrooms in total, the apartment offers a level of convenience that stands out in Florence.
Above all, it offers the feeling of staying in a true Florentine residence — spacious, authentic, and peaceful — while being just a short walk from the Duomo and the city’s most iconic landmarks.
