Florence Apartment: Palazzo Stiattesi

This first-class Florence apartment (120 sqm) is an extremely privileged location for a holiday in one of the world’s most fascinating art cities. At the heart of Old Florence, in a narrow, cobbled street between ancient buildings with stone-edged portals, lies Palazzo Stiattesi.

This distinguished Florence apartment offers its guests an atmosphere with a unique charm. The spacious rooms combine modern comforts with the classical elegance of times gone by. The tasteful fittings carefully hold a balance between old and modern elements – the cosy living room, for instance, is equipped with an antique fireplace, contrasted by a modern snow-white sofa and the clear-cut lines of white bookshelves. Typical Italian terracotta tiles create a warm atmosphere in the room.

The well equipped kitchen also contains elements of traditional Toscana style with artisan-made ceramic tiles, as does the adjacent dining room, decorated in a simple but cosy rustic style with wooden furniture – the perfect setting for enjoying Tuscany’s culinary delights in good company. Before retiring for the night in one of the pleasantly quiet double bedrooms, take a moment to contemplate the starry night sky.

The private roof garden provides a delightfully romantic view of Florence by night. By day, the little terrace offers a wonderful outlook over the roofs of Old Florence and the towers and walls at the rear of the Palazzo Vecchio.

For sleeping there are two double bedrooms and for the 5th person, there is a study with 1 single sofa bed.

This Florence apartment only a few steps away is the world famous Uffizi art museum, a sheer unbelievable treasure trove of significant paintings and sculptures, including works as well known as Leonardo da Vinci's Annunciation and Botticelli's Birth of Venus. It is well worth visiting the Galleria dell'Accademia too, simply to admire Michelangelo's impressively male David. The marble sculpture outside the Palazzo Vecchio, over four metres high, is an exact copy of the original, which was relocated to a more protected spot inside the museum in 1873.
