The Sant'Ambrogio 19th-century food market is 2 minutes away. Ponte Vecchio is a 10-minute walk, while Piazzale Michelangelo (city views) is 1.5 km.

Unique Features
The property combines Renaissance-era frescoes (like the Florentine Lily in 'Il Giglio' room) with modern amenities. Original 20th-century furniture appears in some rooms. The building has no elevator but offers two quiet inner courtyards. Heating uses automated thermostats. Room keys are electronic (€10 replacement fee).
“What stands out is its cultural immersion, with carefully preserved frescoes and antique furnishings that offer a genuine experience of Florence. Its location makes the city center easily reachable, and the complimentary beverages are a plus. I especially appreciate the blend of historical charm and modern comforts.”
