We could not believe our luck when we checked into our apartment, Palazzo d’Ambra, located in a palace in the Lorenzo neighborhood of Florence. Built in 16th Century and recently restored, the apartment features 25 foot ceilings decorated with frescos from the 18th Century, antiques and all the modern amenities, including USB ports for U.S. cell phones and two lovely bathrooms.
The bedrooms are beautiful. The kids were giddy with excitement picking out their bedrooms.
The location is absolutely perfect - close to absolutely everything. 5 minutes from Il Duomo, Palazzo Vecchio, the Arno etc. It also is just steps from great restaurants.
The host was helpful and responsive, helping us get a taxi to the airport.
I honestly could not ask for a better place. It is magical and we hope to return.
