This is a brilliant place to stay. 5* accomodation with everything you could possibly need. Fabulous Mercato di Sant' Ambrogia just around the corner and a great supermarket only five minutes walk away. So many recommendations for places to see, but apart from the obvious ones, we especially recommend Villa Bardini, Museo degli Innocenti and Museo dell'Opera del Duomo. Superb food at Osteria del Caffe Italiano on Via Isole delle Stinche and Boccadama in Piazza Santa Croce.
