About this property

Amazing Views of Ponte Vecchio and Uffizi - Extremely silent - Modern - WiFi

Location.
The apartment is 60 meters from the Ponte Vecchio or Old Bridge, one of the most famous Florentine landmarks, and looks directly onto the river Arno. On the opposite bank of the river is the Uffizi museum complex and the famous Vasari Corridor, which connects the Palazzo Vecchio to the Uffizi and across the Ponte Vecchio to the Pitti Palace.
Across the road is a perfectly furnished small supermarket and all around there are excellent restaurants, cafés, wine bars, fashion shops and artisans’ workshops. With just a few minutes’ walk, you can reach all the principal monuments and museums, including the Uffizi museum; the Palazzo Pitti museums and the Boboli gardens; the Piazza della Signoria with the magnificent Palazzo Vecchio as well as the Duomo or Cathedral. You can also stroll along the riverbanks admiring the city and the surrounding hills.

About the apartment.
The 'Ponte Vecchio relax' apartment is on the 2nd floor of a recently fully refurbished building with all the windows overlooking the river Arno. It has two rooms plus a spacious bathroom for a total area of approximately 400 sq. ft.
As all the windows look onto the river and none face the street, the apartment is extremely silent even when the windows are left open. It is served by a newly installed elevator and each room has central heating and air conditioning. Furthermore the floor is entirely in oak parquet except for the bathroom where the use of tiles has been preferred.
When you enter the apartment there is a small hall and to the left you access the ample bedroom with a king size double bed. From the centre of the hall you enter the large bathroom equipped with a shower and where you will also find the washing machine. On the opposite side of the hall from the bedroom you find the living room with an equipped kitchen that can be closed out of sight when not used. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave oven; an under counter refrigerator; a dishwasher and a two fire induction hob. A toaster and coffee pot are also present. In the living room the comfortable sofa can be opened up to reveal a sofa double bed.

A delightful apartment overlooking the river

We were delighted with the apartment which was even better than the photographs. Everything in the apartment is of a high standard - beautiful floors, lovely kitchenette, tasteful furniture. The view of the Arno river and Ponte Vecchio is amazing. The host was very good at communication and very flexible when out travel was delayed. We will definitely book again when we are next in Firenze.

Wonderful

This compact apartment has a fantastic location a few metres from the Ponte Vecchio in Oltrarno. All three rooms look out on the river, the bridge, and the Uffizi, at about the height of the Vasari corridor. This means that you are sightseeing from home whenever you look out. On the river pass elite rowers, paddleboarders, and in the evenings, a sightseeing boat with a violinist. On the bridge, there is a busker most evenings. There is a good supermarket just across the street, some nice places to eat (including some with riverside tables) within a few steps of the front door, and almost all the main attractions are within a 20 minute walk. The host is a very kind and engaging person whom it was our great pleasure to meet. We waited for our children to grow up and leave for university before going on this long-planned art and history trip to Florence. The combination of pre-booking the first slots of the day for the museums and looking out from this apartment’s windows made it seem sometimes that we had fewer fellow visitors than we really did in May-June. When the bridge is lit up and the evening strollers thin out in numbers around midnight, it isn’t hard to look out at the Vasari corridor windows and imagine the Medici walking back home after an evening’s work in the Uffizi. The sight would’ve been about the same then as it is now.

Ideally situated,comfortable,clean apartment.

The apartment was everything we wished for to make our two week stay as perfect as it could be. A comfortable bed, lovely hot shower, adequate kitchen with quality china and one of the best views in Florence had us wanting for nothing. The manager met us promptly and was very helpful in booking our taxi when we got our train time confused! Ideal for a couple or a single traveler. Grateful for the opportunity to stay in this lovely apartment.

Live live a local

The flat allowed us to just walk downstairs and onto the streets of Florence. The location is super convenient to everything you need in Florence. There is a grocery store right across the street, and eateries and shopping, all steps away. You are within 20 minutes of The Duomo, the Summit at Michelangelo and the Boboli Gardens is also very close. The best part of the experience was getting to meet our neighbors in the building. Michi and Magdalena made us feel like we were family. The experience could not have been better and we feel lucky to have been able to spend time with these two amazing ladies.

We absolutely loved this space. Not only was the location ideal, with a view of the Ponte Vecchio, but the property itself was lovely. We had everything we needed and more. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had just enough for us to make a light breakfast before we headed out for the day. When we return to Florence in the future, we will absolutely seek out this property again!

Outstanding!

We could not have been happier with our stay here! The flat was immaculate, and with stunning views! We were greeted by our host who showed us around the apartment, and gave us recommendations in the area. Clearly, the host takes great pride in welcoming guests and making them feel at home. We had fresh flowers in the living room & bathroom, OJ, milk & water in the fridge! After a long day of traveling, it was so nice to "come home" to such a warm environment. The location couldn't have been better! We would highly recommend this rental to anyone staying in Florence, and we would absolutely stay with this host again.

Can’t beat the location & view.

I was here for 11 days. It’s a lovely location with beautiful views & easy to walk everywhere. The only thing I would caution anyone about is that there is music every night on the Ponte Vecchio bridge until around 10 or 10:30. The 1st night I had been traveling all day & went to bed around 9 which is early for me & then I was woken by the noise. It ended around 10 though & I went right back to sleep. Other than that, perfetto!

We absolutely loved our stay here. We stayed 9 days total and fell in love with the location. Check in was easy and seamless. Their sweet mother-in-law Migi was the kindest and helped us get a taxi twice and waited with us to make sure it showed up. She checked on us to make sure the washing machine was working and left us a departing gift. I would stay there again just to see Migi again.

Felt like home

…thanks to Migi, who lives next door (mother in law) of the owner. She is the “host” & greets you with genuine warmth. Migi is extremely helpful and kind. She is helpful and can point you in the direction of your preferred experience. (I’ve never written a review before and am motivated by our experience of this lovely human.). The property itself was perfectly situated as indicated by the photos—nothing is misleading.

Heaven on earth

This home was truly amazing, a dream come true. It’s located in a beautiful building and in the perfect location. The kindest woman checked us in, she honestly made our experience so much better. She gave us recommendations and even had us over for wine and snacks. The views from the home are breathtaking, views from the bedroom, bathroom, and living room. It was so clean and decorated beautifully. It was very roomy and was equipped with everything you could imagine. The bed and couch were so comfortable, the kitchen was perfect, even got to wash a load of laundry. I could not have stayed in a better Florence home. It exceeded every expectation. We kept the windows open all day and were able to watch people float by in the water and listen to the live music from the bridge. I found a great coffee shop just around the corner from the home. Everything I needed was right there. Seriously was the best part of our Italian trip. I hope that in the future we can stay here again. It was magical.
