THE NEIGHBORHOOD
The apartment is located in the lively Sant'Ambrogio district, in the heart of Florence's historic center, just steps away from the Duomo and the magnificent Basilica of Santa Croce and its square. It is an excellent starting point for walking to all the city's main sites: the Accademia, the Uffizi Gallery, Palazzo Vecchio, Santa Maria Novella, San Marco, San Lorenzo, and the Ponte Vecchio.

CHECK-IN/CHECK-OUT
Generally, check-in is from 3:00 PM on the day of arrival, and the apartment must be vacated by 11:00 AM on the day of departure.
However, we will do our best to accommodate your travel schedule; if there are no other guests checking in on your departure day, you are welcome to arrive or leave at whatever time suits you best.

HOW TO REACH THE APARTMENT
Via Fiesolana is just a 20-minute walk from the main Santa Maria Novella train station (or 10 minutes by taxi or public transport). From Florence Airport, the best way to reach us is by taxi (flat rate of €30) or via the shuttle bus (the "Volain" bus), which runs every 30 minutes and takes you to the main station. From there, you can take bus number 14 or 23 and get off at the "Colonna 1" stop. If you land at Pisa Airport, you will need to get to the Santa Maria Novella station by train or coach, and then take a taxi, a bus, or walk to the apartment. IF ARRIVING BY CAR
Only residents are permitted to park in the historic center—the so-called ZTL (Limited Traffic Zone). If you arrive by car to unload your luggage, please use the paid garage located just a short walk from the apartment: Garage Italia (Via Fiesolana 19; rates: €7/hour, €35/day).

About the host

Hosted by Claudia

Host profile image
My name is Claudia, I was born in Tuscany and i moved to Florence to study Art History. I immediately fell in love with this city and from that moment I never wanted to leave. I have lived and worked here for almost 30 years and i’m still astonished/amazed/ breathless by its beauty and history.I bought my apartment in via Fiesolana from an italian artist named Gabriele that used it as its studio, and the rooms still reflects the same disposition the artist needed to paint his works of art. It was love at first sight for me, from the moment i saw the apartment I realized it had to be mine. This apartment in via Fiesolana had been my home for many unforgettable years and I really hope that my guests could experience the same feelings of happiness i felt in this apartment.

What makes this property unique

It’s very difficult to describe the reasons why I immediately fell in love with my apartment, they were just a bunch of unexplainable feelings. Some of the unique characteristics that hit me were the very high ceiling and the artistic glass window you could admire in the living room, a work by the Italian artist Gabriele, who was the previous owner of the apartment; the fireplaces, one of them with a head of Eolo the top also by Gabriele, the views on the roofs of Florence, the ancient wooden floor of the living room and the warm atmosphere that comes from any room. The big papier-mâché mask in the living-room was made by Gabriele too, he always loved to call it “Lo spirito della casa” (The soul of the house), it has been put there by the artist and it has always been there.
