Via Ricasoli 23, in the heart of the historic centre of Florence. The apartments face the internal courtyard of the palazzo: you sleep in silence, with the Duomo and the David a few steps away.
We are on one of the oldest streets in the centre, the one that runs from Piazza del Duomo to the Galleria dell'Accademia. Everything people come to Florence for is within walking distance — you will never need to take a bus.
Times measured at an unhurried walking pace, not optimistic estimates.
The historic centre is a restricted traffic zone. If you are coming by car, read the last box first.
From Florence Peretola airport there is a fixed fare into the centre. The luggage supplement is charged separately.
