- About The Experience
Antique shops, artisans, great restaurants, and bridges over the Arno: our apartment in Florence puts you just steps away from all of this. This Florence holiday accommodation is also, of course, within easy walking distance of all the major sights.
- Location Description
The Florence apartment building is located in the Santo Spirito neighborhood in the Oltrarno district, only 100 meters from the Arno River. The apartment is 4 blocks west of the Ponte Vecchio and near the Piazza Santo Spirito, which is characterized by a large number of traditional Italian craft shops and artist studios. There are many shops and restaurants nearby.
Nearby Attractions: The Oltrarno is the area of Florence that is south of the Arno River. While it contains some of the most famous and characteristic Renaissance buildings, it is also a quarter known for authentic flavor. Here you will find the Santo Spirito Church designed by Brunelleschi, the Santa Maria del Carmine Church with its famous Brancacci Chapel containing Masaccio’s exquisite frescoes, and the Palazzo Pitti. There are magnificent views of Florence from the Forte Belvedere and Piazzale Michelangelo, a prime destination for a gelato or glass of wine while watching the sunset. For those who like quirky, a visit to La Specola Museum, with wax anatomical models from the 18th century, is sure to fascinate. In addition to all of this, the quarter has many fine restaurants and shops, as well as an open-air market in the Piazza Santo Spirito.

Enjoyed Most:
Location, location, location. It was located just across the river from MANY things and there are nice restaurants and shops right outside the door.
Enjoyed Least:
Noise outside and poor air conditioning. However, noise from motorbikes is a problem in all of Florence.
Surrounding Area:
All of the amenities are within a stone's throw from the door.
Tips or Restaurants:
Aqua al Due is WONDERFUL! with a location in San Diego. I was hesitant because I stay away from chains and I felt why should I eat at this place in Italy when I can eat at it in San Diego. It turned out to be the BEST meal we had in Florence. As far as things to bring...the unit was had everything you could possibly need.

Enjoyed Most:
Location!!! The Oltrarno was wonderful. All those antique shops and artisans and great restaurants with the bridges, just a step away.
Enjoyed Least:
No view - only skylights, and the extra twelve steps up from the elevator.
Tips or Restaurants:
Quattro Leone - Kevin Costner eats there.
Oloi and Convivium, both for food and for upscale supplies. We brought back prosciutto and balsamic vinegar and provolone, shrink wrapped.

Overall:
It didn't disappoint in any way. The location was excellent. The sleeping area is discreetly separated from the living area and the bed was quite comfortable and big. The living area was spacious for the two of us and there was plenty of space. The hot water was in constant supply, and the bathroom even had a tub. The kitchen was equipped for meals to be prepared but given the excellent and abundant restaurants in our neighborhood we didn't cook. It was very quiet. We walked everywhere; the excellent location of the apartment coupled with the perfect June weather made that a pleasure.
