Duomo Apartment | The Florian Apartment: The feeling of touching the Duomo

1 Bedroom Apartment in Duomo, Firenze

We are renovating the building with scaffolding only inside the courtyard until approx. May 2025.
The works take place from Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm and sometime on Saurday morning.
The apartment 'Florian' is situated in Piazza del Duomo in the heart of Florence’s historical centre, on the 4th level ( no lift ) of a prestigious XVI century palace that once belonged to the Ghiberti family, one of Florence’s most important historical families, with easy steps well worth the journey.
From October 25 2009, Piazza del Duomo is a pedestrian area with all the advantages that an area like that can offer
Spending time in my apartment is to be accompanied by the shadow of the magnificent dome of Brunelleschi, the grandeur of Giotto’s belltower and the splendour of Vasari’s frescos, in an unforgettable dream that Florence will dream with you and bring you great joy and an even greater desire to return.
Florian directly faces the Duomo, giving you the sensation that you could reach out and touch its magnificent green and white marble facade. The apartment has been completely restored in Florentine style, but with all modern comforts.
Florian is a romantic and welcoming apartment comprising: a cosy living room with a comfortable sofa, a small and fully-equipped kitchen with a balcony that offers a charming view of Florence, a bedroom with two single beds (85 by 200) that can be transformed into a double bed. A small entrance hall with a splendid view of the Duomo and one modern bathroom with shower complete the description of the apartment.

Summary: This property offers an unforgettable experience in Florence, thanks to Luca, the welcoming owner, and its prime location overlooking the cathedral. The unit itself is cozy and fully equipped, perfect for solo travelers or couples. One of the highlights is opening the windows to soak in the magical atmosphere of the street below. Plus, with all the tourist sites within walking distance and an abundance of restaurants nearby, it's an ideal choice for any traveler. And for those who prefer to cook, there's a convenient store just around the corner. Highly recommended for a memorable stay in Florence!

Summary: Very nice little flat. Warm, very comfortable mattresses and linen, plenty of hot water. Location could not be any better; right in the middle of everything. The host recommended a restaurant, Trattoria Antellesi, which turned out to be friendly with great food and super wine.

David B. Feb 20, 2024 08:00:38 AM

Summary: What a beautiful apartment in the heart of Florence! You literally walk out onto the Piazza del Duomo and immediately surrounded by cafes, restaurants and shops. The cathedral is literally in front of you. It is also an easy walk to the Uffizi museum, Accademia and Palazzo and Ponte Vecchio. Luca is a very attentive host who met with me and gave me an excellent overview. Yes, there are 4 flights of stairs to go up but that is typical of most of Europe in my experience. Just something to keep in mind if you have a mobility issue. Unfortunately the facade of the building is under construction so views out the window are minimal right now but who wants to see the views from inside? The washer is also out of commission right now due to this outside construction if that is something you were wanting and needing. Overall, this is an exceptional apartment with a location that cannot be beat!

TIMOTHY R. Oct 31, 2023 06:19:40 AM

Summary: This super clean apartment is directly across from the Duomo, so within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. Luca, the apartment owner, is a gem. He communicated with us through the entire booking and arrival process. He even met us at the apartment to clearly explained how everything in the building operated. So easy! We enjoyed our stay very much. Thanks, Luca!

Summary: My daughter and her friend stayed here, and loved it. Perfect location and outstanding place to stay. Thank you.

Jackson W. Jul 11, 2023 06:00:06 AM

Summary: The apartment is beautiful and situated next to Il Duomo. It is 10 minutes to the main train station on foot. The taxi from the airport was able to leave us practically at the front door. There are many cafes, bars, and restaurants literally steps from the building entrance. It is also a short walk to L’uficcio, La academmia, and Ponte Vecchio. Everything in the apartment worked great, including the AC and clothes washer. We are two adults and a child and found the size to be just right. This is a great place for a small family. For me the only negatives would be the amount of stairs as it is on the top floor. Bringing up the luggage after a long flight was unpleasant, but you only have to do it once. If you have physical limitations however you might reconsider. As the apartment overlooks the piazza there is ambient noise that goes into the morning. This includes live musicians, church bells, and some evening revelry. Personally we love this as it sounds like Italy and makes the location festive. I wouldn’t call it loud or intrusive at all. We slept great every night. The check in and check out process couldn’t have been easier. Luca was wonderful and began communicating with us before we arrived in Italy. He sent very detailed instructions to get to the property including what to tell the taxi driver in Italian. Our family loved Firenze and enjoyed very much staying in this very charming property!

Summary: The location was great! Right across from Duomo and close proximity to many restaurants and coffee shops. In the evenings, you could listen to the street performers, Even though this area of the city is very busy, the apartment is quiet. It was perfect for our short stay in Florence.

Michael D. Dec 20, 2022 04:41:42 PM

Summary: This apartment is conveniently located a rock’s throw from the Duomo and is beautifully furnished with breath taking views. Luca is an exceptional host and provided me with several amenities that made it comfortable during my vacation. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during my time in Florence. Grazie Mille!

Sergei Oct 17, 2022 04:22:25 AM

Summary: Amazing property, amazing location, outstanding historic building and very welcoming owner! We loved everything and enjoyed every moment of our stay!

liz p. Sep 17, 2022 04:37:31 AM

Summary: Our stay in Florence was fabulous! Our host Luca was fantastic! Can’t say enough about his prompt responses and excellent communication. He was friendly and helpful with tips about Florence. Apartment was lovely with the entertainment from the street below and quiet when we needed it. Stairs are true to description but we loved the challenge! Apartment had all the amenities we needed but the best was the coffee maker!
