Great location

To be living amongst the frescoes was a dream, ridiculous but wonderful. The location is perfect, the apartment is a bit strangely laid out, however serviceable, spacious, and comfortable. The pots & pans left a bit to be desired, nonetheless we were able to do simple cooking.

Amazing property in incredible location

We stayed here for our honeymoon, and were blown away by the space. The location is in a quiet side street off of a great piazza with a neat market every day. The actual rooms were incredible—such a slice of history that we felt like royalty ourselves! It was so nice to have a washer on site, A/C, and a kitchen—it felt homey and had what we needed to stay comfortable!

Wonderful historic apartment

The apartment was everything we hoped it would be, old, grand and decoration in keeping with the apartment. The stay helped to make our visit to Florence al the more special. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to asorb some of the history and heritage of Florence. Pictures are a little misleading as they show both apartments to rent, when you get one of this only. But it did not affect our experience at all.

Have You Ever Stayed at Versailles?

Staying in this fabulous Palazzo was like living in a museum. Where to start? Santo Spirito is literally the perfect location! I wanted to live like a local and I did. Convenient to absolutely everything you want to see, as well as everything you need, I mean within a ten minute walk, but away from all the tourists. Did I say charm? Frescoes on the walls and ceiling, beautiffully decorated in old world style but eclectically mixed with modern bathroom and kitchen. Then step outside and be greeted with cozy cafes and trattoria around the square, kind and friendly neighbors and shopkeepers, artisan studios and workshops and boutiques hidden on tiny cobblestone streets. Veramente, ho sento come io habito da Paradiso! The apartment was immaculate and very comfortable. I felt safe and at home, come la mia casa. Dealing with Elly was a pleasure. If I needed anything, she was available and completely helpful immediately. My stay in Palazzo Bucciolini was my idea of heaven. And if you want to truly experience authentic Italian living, you will not surpass Santo Spirito for location. I cannot believe how fortunate I was to be able to stay in this dream space and if anything, my experience has only increased my desire to move to Italy. Thank you Francesco, Elly and the other staff who helped me. Spero tourno per la Primavera!

The best location and stay!

The one bedroom apartment was very suitable for two seperate sleeping quarters. The ooms very spacious and frescos were amazing. Large windows let breezes in but air conditioning also worked very comfortably. The bathroom was small but modern with plenty of hot water. Checking was a breeze with Elli being the perfect person to introduce you to the neighborhood. She was always prompt and available to answer questions via messaging. San Spirito square was most amazing with markets (produce, cheeses, clothing, kitchen wares) and new vendors appeared each day. There are wonder restaurants around the square and surrounding area. We loved how families with children and musicians would congregate in this area. We found it hard to leave. Walking across the Arno was a quick trip and all museums were close by. We totally loved staying here and the support services from Elli were outstanding.

Comfortable, spacious, and quiet.

The property is as pictured in the VRBO listing. The checkin was easy. The location in Santo Spirito is perfect, and just half a block from the Piazza. What we liked about the apartment is: it is quiet, clean, and well-kept; the kitchen is large enough to prepare meals and has supplies to get started; bathroom is modern; towels and sheets are hotel quality; the terrace is nice; and the air conditioning works well. The owner and his representative, Eleonora were responsive to our requests. The apartment is spacious, but given its configuration, it is not sunny. However, that shouldn't matter because visitors should be out and about enjoying this great neighborhood.

Lavish style and comfort.

This apartment is a stunner. We chose it because we wanted an apartment that matched the history of the city outside. This apartment had much more space than the two of us needed. It was gorgeous. The location was perfect because we were an easy walk from the tourist heart of the city, and plenty of good restaurants and shops, but away from the crowds. There is a secure parking facility around the corner and getting the car in and out of Florence wasn't too difficult. There is, however, no lift in the apartment, and although the apartment is on the first floor, with the high ceilings, it was a fair climb with luggage. Check in was efficient, but the manager did not relieve either of us of one piece of luggage; not so much as a handbag. I was surprised, given our age, her youth and the fact that all other hosts had shown this act of hospitality.

Me & my partner stayed 4 nights and were wonderfully greeted by friendly and useful . The apartment is spacious and clean and everything you need is available. Beautiful Artwork and amazing finishings . Everything is safe and you won’t regret booking here . The area is great with bars and restaurants all around . The restaurants in the tourist areas are overpriced and average but you will soon find the best places are in this area of Oltrarno. Enjoy

Fabulous Florence Apartment

We spent 4 nights in this amazing palazzo. Walking into it felt like we were entering a movie set. Comfortable, beautiful, clean and well-situated in the Oltrarno area. We easily walked to all the museums and restaurants on both sides of the Arno. Eleonora, the manager of the property, was very helpful and instructive. We will recommend this place to everyone we know who is planning a trip to Florence, and will hope to return ourselves.

Wir wurden sehr nett auf englisch von der Hausdame begrüßt. Als die Tür sich öffnete, wurde uns bewußt, wir sind Gäste an einem besonderen Ort. Die Räume sind außergewöhnlich. Im "Wohnzimmer" erzählen Fresken aus dem 18. Jh. von der Ausbildung des Liebesgottes Amor. Der perfekte Ort als Start für unsere Kulturreise. Die Museen sind von hier aus gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Für das Frühstück gibt es in der Nachbarschaft nette Bäckereien und auch für das Abendbrot gibt es genussreichen Angebote in direkter Nähe.

Florentijns appatement

Een zo aardig gedecoreerd appartement zal je in andere Europese steden niet gauw aantreffen. Het doet de prachtige stad Florence eer aan en biedt door zijn ligging ook uitstekend gelegenheid om de stad te verkennen. De nauwkeurigheid van de advertentie zou aanzienlijk kunnen worden verbeterd door duidelijk te maken dat de prachtige foto's niet betrekking hebben op één appartement maar op twee naast elkaar gelegen appartementen (waarmee de entree wordt gedeeld). Op zich is daar niet zo veel op tegen, maar de foto's vertellen niet dat als de tijdelijke buren in het naastgelegen appartement waarmee het gehuurde appartement in feite één unit vormt zeer luidruchtig zijn dit een nogal negatieve invloed op het (tijdelijke) woongenot.
