We cannot praise this apartment highly enough! It's just as beautiful as it looks in the pictures! So tastefully decorated, the views are spectacular and everything is within 15 minutes walk. Elisabetta and Leonardo are very helpful and always on hand with advice when you need it but otherwise leave you alone to enjoy your holiday in privacy. I would highly recommend the IO Osteria Personale restaurant if you're a foodie - they have an amazing tasting menu and the service is superb. If you want to watch the sun go down over the river turn right out of the apartment, first right again then take a leisurely stroll left along the river towards the Ponte Vecchio, there are many lovely bars/cafes to sit and soak in the atmosphere. For people watching, we loved the Il Caffe Gilli in Piazza Della Repubblica. You can sit on their comfy sofas for hours sipping cocktails looking out over the piazza just watching life! The food's very good there too, quite pricey but worth it for the atmosphere. To be honest though, you're spoilt for choice in Florence, there's an abundance of wonderful places to eat and drink! If you're going to the Uffizi Gallery, I would strongly recommend buying tickets online in advance to avoid long queues. You can just show your email confirmation on your phone or tablet so no need to print anything off.
Please go to Florence and stay in this apartment. You'll have a wonderful time!
