Photos and Description of this Florence holiday apartment 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, sleeps 2 (+2)

This beautiful apartment, formerly a covered roof-terrace in a historic Florentine palazzo, has been lovingly restored and transformed into the palazzo's penthouse apartment. Accessed by a private keyed elevator and then a short staircase, the apartment is very spacious, open and bright and affords astonishing views! In fact, we call it 'Panorama' because of its 3 large windows offering views of Palazzo Vecchio, the Bargello and Badia Fiorentina, and the Duomo. This apartment includes a corner kitchen, a spacious dining area (seating 6) and living room with a double sofa bed (160 centimeters wide). A spiral staircase leads to the oversize loft with the master bed and another sofa bed. The bathroom with a spectacular Duomo view from the shower completes the apartment! The interior decoration is refined with antique parquet floors, refinished antique wooden doors, as well as the beautiful wood-beamed ceiling. NEW! SPECIAL OFFER: 30% OFF FROM NOVEMBER 1 TO DECEMBER 22, 2009!!

'Panorama' apartment is located in the very heart of Florence's historic center. Right outside your door is the most famous piazza in the city, an open-air museum filled with sculpture and history! And within 5 to 10 minutes you can walk to almost all the city's landmarks: the Duomo is 5-minutes in one direction, Santa Croce is is 5-minutes in another direction, the Pitti Palace is just 10-minutes away! It is also very easy to reach our palazzo from the main train station (15 by foot, or 5 minutes in taxi). We are about 20 minutes by taxi from Florence's Peretola Airport. If you would like to explore more of the Tuscan region during your stay, Chianti is less than half an hour away by car. (We can help you rent a car, arrange for a driver or tour guide, or direct you to the easiest buses to the region.) Bus and train transportation is also very easy from Florence to nearby cities such as Siena, Lucca and Pisa (all about an hour away). Day trips are a great way to see the region!

Further details for this holiday apartment rental in Florence, Italy

Palazzo Uguccioni, Historic Renassance Palace: Elegant Palazzo Uguccioni is a 16th century Renaissance palace in Florence's Piazza della Signoria. After the Palazzo Vecchio, this palazzo is one of the most important palaces in the piazza. The building, with its noble and harmonious façade, was created by Mariotto di Zanobi Folfi in 1549 to a design by Raphael. The ground floor is constructed with large ashlars forming three arches, while two stories rise above and are divided by twin columns of the Ionic and Corinthian order.

Palazzo Uguccioni Apartments: Our completely refurbished apartments offer the unique possibility of enjoying a full immersion in the arts and history of Florence, with all the comforts and independence of a home away from home. Our 'Panorama' apartment is located on the top floor of the palazzo (accessed by elevator and short staircase). It affords beautiful views, yet is quietly set back from the noise and commotion of the piazza (a big plus in our busy city!). The apartment shares a common reception room with four similar apartments. The common room provides a tasteful sitting area with a comfortable sofa and chair, plus a laundry room supplied with shared washer/dryer, iron/ironing board, drying rack, vacuum, brooms and more. In the common room, you will also find a selection of tourist information to help you plan your stay, including up-to-date brochures, maps, calendars and other recommendations. Our helpful staff is always nearby should you need assistance or recommendations!

Guest Comments:: 'We stayed in one of your apartments on Wed 16th - Fri 18th of this month. I'm just writing to say that the accomodation was fantastic and that we shall be returning to Florence next summer and will be booking well in advance to stay in your beautiful apartments (for a longer period). They were the perfect base to explore the city from and a very relaxing escape from the busy streets when you needed a break. The freedom to come and go as you prefered, without the limitations a hotel may place upon your stay, was wonderful. Many thanks,'
