Romantic Apartment With Garden 2 Minutes' Walk From Pitti Palace

Santo Spirito-Piazza Pitti apartment with garden sleeps 2/4.
This newly-renovated apartment is located on the first floor of an old building 50 metres from Piazza Pitti. It is about 45 square metres and has the rare feature of a beautiful walled garden which, being at the back of the building, is a haven of peace and birdsong in the centre of the city.
The living room has a mezzanine floor with a double bed. On the lower level is a comfortable sofa bed and seating area, large wardrobe, desk and work area with internet connection and large window overlooking the garden.
The spacious kitchen has a traditional marble-topped table that seats four comfortably, an armchair corner and a door leading out onto the garden.
The bathroom is done out in pale stone with slate grey tiling on the floor: it is contemporary and chic and really quite large for an apartment of this size. There is a small storage room too.
There are oak floors throughout.
The garden has jasmine and antique roses climbing the walls and fresh herbs for use in your Tuscan cooking: a table and chairs provide a perfect spot for al fresco meals and aperitivi.
Although we are at present renting this apartment out, we have deliberately restored it with a view to using it as our own pied-a-terre in Florence one day, so we have not cut corners!
There is a private garage for parking 5 minutes walk away (not ours); there is a daily charge.

Excellent location
Apartment is located centrally, walking distance to many attractions and train station. Getting into apartment with luggage was an exercise. Main challenge was the slow draining shower, we had to rinse feet in sync after the shower.

We had a wonderful time during our stay…adorable condo in excellent location. Walk to grocery store, excellent restaurants and shops. Very close to piazza with restaurants and bars in Santo Spirito area. Nicky is a wonderful host who helped us navigate our way when we were lost and provided excellent recommendations for neighborhood restaurants. Would stay here again!

Communication with Nicky was great and she also had an extensive compendium with lots of information and recommendations. The apartment was as advertised. Lovely outdoor courtyard for pre dinner drinks or early morning breakfast. The stairs to the loft bedroom could be a little challenging for some. Easy walk to Ponte Vechio and lots of dining in the area.

Lovely property
Nicky was a wonderful hostess. She greeted us when we arrived and gave us a heads up on everything. The property is so lovely and in an excellent position. We very much enjoyed our stay. It is on the “quieter” side of the river and a nice haven after a busy day of sightseeing. Kathryn and Dewey Sloan Melbourne, Australia.

Excellent aparment
This apartment is wonderful. Ideally located for the major sites in Florence. Easy to walk everywhere from the apartment. The apartment is spacious and light with a very pleasant garden. The host is very helpful and lives in the same neighborhood, in fact we ran into her one afternoon. The recommendations for food were spot on.

Wonderful private garden in Florence
Great location! Outside the crowds but close to everything. We had a wonderful time having cappucino every mornimg at Cafe Bellini and watching people at the Pitti Palace. The roses were in bloom in the private garden, the bed was comfortable and the shower was great after long days of walking. A perfect place for 2 wks. Nicky was very friendly and communicated well with us. I would highly recommend!

Excellent Location! Excellent Host!
This cozy apartment in Florence met all of our expectations. The host went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. She was very flexible with our arrival times and even welcomed us with a tasty treat and chilled prosecco. Nicky also arranged a taxi for our departure as we were having an issue reaching the company. The apartment was very convenient to the train station as well as the many things to see in Florence. Would highly recommend staying here if you are visiting this area.

Just perfect
We’ve been in this apartment for the second time and it was just perfect! It’s a little gem in the middle of a very bustling city. Once you step out of the house you are in the middle of everything. Inside it’s a quiet place where you can relax. We love the little terrace! We will come back - hopefully next year! Nicky is a fantastic host!

Nicky’s place was a fantastic location. Quiet and safe at night but so walkable to everything we wanted to see and close to the train station. Nicky gave us lots of great recs and overall we would definitely book again! Oh and the garden was beautiful. We stayed in the rainy season and it was still beautiful.

Fantastic Florence location
Very spacious apartment in a great location. We were met by our host who walked us through everything and even replaced the outdoor umbrella that had broken with the previous guest. The location was close to many restaurants and a short walk across thebridge to the center of town. We would absolutely stay again.
