What an incredible location, apartment and host!! Francesca and her family have created luxury in the heart of Florence. Staying for two nights in the city could have quickly become many more if we hadn't had another led of our Tuscan Tour to explore!!
Situated opposite the Accademia de Belle Arti (in which you can - and should - view Michelangelo's "David"), and with views of the Duomo you couldn't be in a better location of you tried.
Francesca is kind, considerate and passionate about her guests experience in the city and we found this to be another perk beyond just the extraordinary finish of the apartment (we stayed in the recently renovated 3rd floor street view apartment). We couldn't have squeezed in any more site seeing and if you're visiting for a once in a lifetime trip I highly recommend you stay at Palazza Alfani for more than two nights.
Parking is the only terror in Florence, but again our host thought of everything and we booked in to the local underground carpark just down the road.
Around the corner are great bar/ restaurants / shops to check out including La Menagere, SimBIOsi, Gesto, Ditta Artigianale, and I could go on..
A blissful trip
