About this property

Wonderful city apartment with breath taking views over Florence.

The apartment, (70 square meter) is situated in the historical centre of Florence directly at the 'Piazza San Marco', one of the most beautiful historical public squares of the city. It is located at the 5th floor (without elevator) of an historical palace (XVIII century). The apartment, which has air condition is totally silent, from the balcony as well as from all windows you will enjoy a wonderful view over Florence and its monuments. From the kitchen (refrigerator, freezer, dishwasher, oven and gas-cooker) you step on a nice roomy balcony where you can take breakfast while enjoying the wonderful view over San Marco Cathedral and the hills of Fiesole. The apartment has furthermore a large living/dining room with TV, two separate bedrooms (one with a comfortable double bed and a special view on the Dome of Florence) and a modern bathroom with shower. All main museums and monuments of Florence can be visited within walking distance.

How to reach us: By car: Highway 1 Bologna - Firenze, Exit Firenze Nord, direction 'centro', direction 'Piazza San Marco'. Parking 'Parterre' nearby at Piazza della Libertà.

By train: Florence main station (Santa Maria Novella) - 2 min with taxi or all buses with direction 'San Marco'.

By airplane: Take a taxi (15 -20 min) or take a bus (Narvetta, the tickets you get on the bus) until Florence main station (Santa Maria Novella), than take a bus with direction 'San Marco'.

Information to the surroundings: The apartment in Florence is located in one of the central squares of the city (Piazza San Marco) in the historic center of town.

This district Cosimo il Vecchio has left its mark. Within the walls of this area once the menagerie of the Medici family was staying. Today it is the student quarter, and during the semester, the Piazza San Marco is always populated by young people who are waiting for the start of their lectures and art classes. The Accademia di Belli Arti founded in 1563 is the oldest art academy in the world, dating back to Michelangelo.

The adjacent neighborhood to the San Lorenzo church is surrounded by a square, and a colorful market life reminds us that Florence was the city of merchants. Many of the offered products are real bargains, especially if you act like the locals with the sellers ...

We had an amazing time in Florence. It was even more fun because of the location of this apartment. Check in was so easy. Apartment was clean. Beds were comfortable. The view at night from the small terrace was amazing. Would definitely recommend.

Sisters dream trip

Tiberio’s place was perfect for me and my sister. We each had our own bedroom, the bathroom was a good size, the living spaces were great, but our favorite spot was the terrace, big enough for us to enjoy wine and the views were spectacular. Also, the location was perfect! Tiberio was an excellent host!

Fantastic location for the Duomo and lots of restaurants & shops. Lovely view of the San Marco Square and very peaceful at night. Tram 2 stops right by the apartment so making the trip from the station very easy. Apartment was well equipped and had a view of the duomo. Hosts were very helpful and friendly. There are a lot of steps which were a challenge, especially with luggage, but that’s the trade off for a great rooftop apartment.

Great spot on San Marco Square

This apartment was perfect for 2 couples. It’s easy to access the apartment from the T2 line as the stop is in front of the apartment door. The location is next door to the museum that houses The David. It’s a few blocks from the Duomo and you can easily walk to Ponte Vecchio. The apartment is on the 5th floor with no lift, so make sure to take that into consideration. Tiberio and Leticia were excellent hosts and it was easy to communicate with them. We would not hesitate to stay here again!

Excellent stay in the heart of Florence

Wonderful Location and Beautiful Views

We stayed for 5 weeks in this apartment and it was so comfortable and the kitchen worked well for cooking. Great balcony overlooking the piazza with hillside views. Views of the Duomo from the primary bedroom. The host, Tiberio, was wonderful with suggestions and helping us secure soccer tickets for a Florentina game. Would definitely stay there again.

Overall, the apartment was very nice and well suited for our stay. The climb up the stairs is a bit vigorous, but a reasonable tradeoff for the location.

Breathtaking view!

Really great apartment, excellent location, 2 small supermarkets within 2 mins (recommend Conad over Carrefore for price and variety) also really good takeaway food in the square, arrancini etc. Florence so small everything is easily walkable and of course David is literally your neighbour! Recommend San Marco museum over the road. Apartment is spacious, view breathtaking, air con kept us cool in 37 deg. Beds comfy and apartment is well equipped and we enjoyed the balcony for our morning cup.of tea. Would recommend!

Central Florence stay

We loved the location of this apartment and the views were amazing. We had a few issues with cleanliness when we arrived however these were immediately addressed by Tiberio and his wife. Do however be aware of the 6 flights of stairs to get to the apartment, but the views were worthwhile. It should also be noted that the AC was not available at all times. Despite minor issues I would recommend staying here,

Great stay in Florence Apartment

We had a great stay in Tiberio's apartment. As others have indicated, it has a great view of the Duomo as well as the rooftops of Florence. It was adequately stocked and perfect for four people. Great value for the money. One warning - the stairs are not for the feint of heart; recommend for visitors that appreciate the value of working off the great Italian food.

Wonderful apartment to explore a beautiful city!

My husband, grown son & I stayed at Tiberio's apartment for two nights while we explored the beauty of Florence. Everything was as described & fit our needs perfectly. We loved enjoying morning coffee on the terrace & the view of the duomo from the master bedroom is incredible. Grazie mille! As the listing mentions, this apartment is up many flights of stairs. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with mobility concerns but it was great for us. (I earned my gelato by climbing them!)

Nice, comfortable and hassle free rental.

We are very grateful we could have access to this property. It is well located, quiet and has more amenities than we needed. The check-in and check-out processes were simple and friendly. The host answered quickly and their support (including the resourceful binder inside the apartment) were really helpful. We will definitely be renting this property again should we visit Florence in a near future. Traveling often comes with a certain level of stress and hope that thing will go as expected. This rental was for our family comfortable, stress-free and it really allowed us to enjoy our stay and what the city had to offer. Thank you!

Amazing Views

We stayed for a week in Oct 23. We found the location perfect for food, attractions, and transportation. We especially enjoyed the view of the Doumo from the bedroom and the view of San Marco Square from the balcony. We had wine on it every night. The stairs are real but not an issue for us (we are early 61 & 57). Tiberio was excellent through the entire process.

Quaint spacious apartment in the heart of Florence

We had a great stay at Florence and glad we had this Vrbo close to many sites. We did know we had 5 floors of stairs to get to our room but wished the AC actually worked better in common living area. Worked great in bedroom. Wasnt too much of an issue since we were out most of day. Tiberio was kind, organized, and informative. We did have trouble with the wifi being spotty but we did okay. Overall, good spot to be near San Marco neighborhood, walking distance to dumo! We enjoyed our stay.
