About this condo rental
Located in Florence, this lovely condo for $218 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. Location. The apartment is 60 meters from the Ponte Vecchio or Old Bridge, one of the most famous Florentine landmarks, and looks directly onto the river Arno. On the opposite bank of the river is the Uffizi museum complex and the famous Vasari Corridor, which connects the Palazzo Vecchio to the Uffizi and across the Ponte Vecchio to the Pitti Palace. Across the road is a perfectly furnished small supermarket and all around there are excellent restaurants, cafés, wine bars, fashion shops and artisans’ workshops. With just a few minutes’ walk, you can reach all the principal monuments and museums, including the Uffizi museum; the Palazzo Pitti museums and the Boboli gardens; the Piazza della Signoria with the magnificent Palazzo Vecchio as well as the Duomo or Cathedral.

The 'Ponte Vecchio relax' apartment is on the 2nd floor of a recently fully refurbished building with all the windows overlooking the river Arno. It has two rooms plus a spacious bathroom for a total area of approximately 400 sq. ft. As all the windows look onto the river and none face the street, the apartment is extremely silent even when the windows are left open. It is served by a newly installed elevator and each room has central heating and air conditioning. Furthermore the floor is entirely in oak parquet except for the bathroom where the use of tiles has been preferred. When you enter the apartment there is a small hall and to the left you access the ample bedroom with a king size double bed. From the centre of the hall you enter the large bathroom equipped with a shower and where you will also find the washing machine. On the opposite side of the hall from the bedroom you find the living room with an equipped kitchen that can be closed out of sight when not used. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave oven; an under counter refrigerator; a dishwasher and a two fire induction hob. A toaster and coffee pot are also present. In the living room the comfortable sofa can be opened up to reveal a sofa double bed.

We absolutely loved our stay here! It's a cozy little apartment with a beautiful view of the Arno River and easy to walk and explore Florence from this location. The space is well appointed with all of the necessities you could need while traveling and the bed is very comfortable. The hosts were wonderful and responsive to any questions. We'd love to stay again when in Florence.

The place itself was amazing and in a perfect location and after a long day the elevator was nice, but check in was a bit rough. I was given check in information and followed all the directions expecting Benedetta to meet us when we got to the apartment (per instructions given). When we got there I texted and messaged on VRBO with no reply, I called the number that was given with no answer. So I called the main number on the listing (Alessandro) and he answered seemed confused and a bit out of sorts about what to do but eventually Migi (mother in law and also neighbor) came downstairs to the rescue, and what an amazing person she is! The washer/dryer was also not working which was a bummer since this was our second leg of our trip and needed to clean clothes but Migi offered to wash them for us and it worked out ok. Migi was a blessing in our case and it seems like most agree in the reviews and it seems like she should be the check in contact.

Best location - couldn’t ask for more! We were able to visit all the important landmarks inside n out - 5 nights should be just enough but we stayed 7. The owner’s m-i-l was a great help! Thank you Miji!

We loved our stay here at this lovely apartment with great views of the Ponte Vecchio. We were greeted by the gracious Migi who made herself available if we needed her. Great central location close to everything yet away from most of the hustle and bustle. The apartment was very comfortable and we hope to visit again. Grazie mille!

Where do I start… Not only this place has the PERFECT spot, but it has the most amazing host ! We’ve been gone from Florence for one week and there’s not one Day that I don’t miss Migli ! She is the most smart,amazing and adorable woman I’ve ever met ! Migli will make sure that everything is perfect and she will make you feel like home the minute you meet her ! There’s lots of good restaurants and wine bars close by and a grocery store across the street. I would not only go back but I would move there if I could ! Don’t hesitate one bit of booking this place !

My wife and I had a great 4 nights at the property and thoroughly enjoyed the area and the great city of Florence!

First, the apartment was lovely with magnificent views of the Arno River from every room. With the windows open the noise of the late night and several concerts lulled us until we went to bed and then with the windows closed the noise was almost non existent. Second, Migi was a delightful host and we so enjoyed meeting her and she went above and beyond in communication and friendliness. We truly enjoyed our stay and Italian experience in Firenze!
5.0
We loved our stay in Florence, and this sweet well-stocked property, location, view and the lovely host played a big part in that. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, bathroom had all the amenities and the small living and kitchen area were very functional. Only negative comment is that the shower was quite small but water pressure was hot and good. The view of the river and Ponte Vecchio was outstanding. Some of the evenings had live music on the river which we could hear from the room. Lots of entertainment, restaurants, cafes and a grocery store right across the road. You can safely walk everywhere from this property. Highly recommend it and hope to return again soon.

The comfort and location of this place is amazing. We loved the views of the Ponte Vecchio from our windows. We purchased the Firenze Card and enjoyed our time in Florence. So much beauty and history in one spot. We also had the privilege of meeting and spending a brief visit with our host’s mother who lives next door. She was a breath of fresh air, very warm and welcoming. I would return to this rental in a heartbeat. We loved our stay. I just wish we could have stayed longer.

This apartment's charms and comforts cannot be fully illustrated by mere photographs and words. The photos showing the apartment's excellent location, just steps from the Ponte Vecchio, are completely accurate but cannot match the experience of being in the apartment, staring at the city lights over the Arno River. The apartment is quiet and completely conducive to getting a good night's sleep. The furnishings were thoughtfully chosen, the bed was comfortable, and the natural light was excellent. Above all, the hospitality shown by the host (actually, during our stay, by the host's mother-in-law) was helpful and gracious. We will recommend this apartment to any of our friends who plan to visit Florence in the near future.

You cannot beat the location or condition of this unit. It had everything we could possible want, every detail was covered. Check in was easy and pleasant. I travel to Florence often and will definitely be staying here again. The air condition was a godsend as it was the beginning of a heat wave but the unit always stayed cool.
5.0
A charming apartment with stunning views. We loved every bit of our stay which provided easy access to everything in Florence. The host’s mother in law was so welcoming and kind. She generously helped us with restaurant suggestions and booking a taxi which is hard to guarantee we found out. We highly recommend

Benedetta was great with directions and communication via WhatsApp. The place itself was absolutely lovely! It was clean and comfortable with a perfect little kitchenette. I could have stayed a long time. The location was perfect, easy to get to everywhere on foot.
There is an elevator that I was glad for because I had a knee problem one day. A grocery store just a few steps from the door. The building is very safe and secure with modern fixtures.
It is right next to the Ponte Vecchio and they do play music late. But I had no trouble sleeping.
Finally, Migi, Thank you so much for looking out for me and finding my sweater the last day!
What a treat it was to stay here.

Outstanding location. Very clean and comfortable place. Highly recommend it. Beware transportation is extremely difficult(impossible) when you need to check out. I would give 5 stars but communication with host was not possible. A very nice lady that was neighbor to us helped us out.

Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay - beside the Arno with an incredible view of the Ponte Vecchio. Perfect for a couple or for 2 people with a pull out sofa.Very clean and very well maintained - Centrally located - and the 'management' was incredibly helpful and friendly. Would stay again in a second!

Our plan was to secure a well located and comfortable flat
(apartment) in Florence and live there for three weeks. Unpack, settle in and come and go as we would if we lived there. This worked so well and we were delighted with our stay. In fact the flat was a highlight of the trip. So well located, stunning views of the Ponte Vecchio and the constant movement of happenings on the Arno River.
As a family closely associated with the sport of rowing we were delighted in seeing so much activity with the rowing club opposite.
The flat was perfectly arranged and all facilities were available . Comfortable, and tastefully furnished. The kitchenette was quite adequate and well provided with implements. The large double bed was superbly comfortable.
We were hosted graciously, welcomed, and made to feel that assistance was always available.
A lovely flat, superbly located with access to the old part of Florence. Restaurants close at hand as are the antiquities of the city.

This unit is a quick walk across the bridge to where all the action is. Still when laying in bed with window open we could hear the lovely musical acts that perform on the bridge. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We really enjoyed our stay once the bumpy initial process of checking in was over. There must have been miscommunication with the host initially, because we waited on the street outside the apartment for around 45 minutes. However, once inside, our host's mother-in-law, Migi was delightful and calmed my husband's temper with her charm. The apartment was everything we hoped for and the VIEW! Wow, we kept the windows open as much as possible for the ambient sounds from the area, the music one could hear in the evening, and for the view of the Ponte Vecchio right outside our window. The kitchen was perfect. The shower was a bit small by our standards, but serviceable. The bed was a bit soft and wobbly and would be my only complaint about the apartment. There were a few light bulbs out and we requested that one be replaced, which it promptly was. The elevator in the complex was prompt and very convenient to the apartment. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay here again! Love Florence, loved Migi!

This little haven very close to Ponte Vecchio is the best rental we have ever stayed in. I find it hard to know where to start!
The position is perfect, the apartment spotless and thoughtfully appointed with quality and stylish fittings.
Communication from the outset was faultless and extremely quick. We were greeted by Bernadette's mother in law who lives next door. Her welcome was so warm and it quickly became clear she was very keen to be available and helpful but in the least obtrusive way. There were beautiful fresh tulips which was such a thoughtful touch.
We have always loved this little corner of Florence and have stayed many times over the years, this was without doubt the best experience. A midstay clean, with fresh linen/towels and tulips happened with great ease. I could go on and on.
It was wonderful in every way. Thank you for this fabulous experience, generosity and thoughtfulness. We would love to think we will be back next year!
5.0
We had a lovely stay. Close to all tourist attractions, easy to reach, checkin in was lovely. Our defacto host, Migi, was the most delightful woman. The only minor criticisms are that the shower is VERY small (hard to even really wash and move), not all of the lights work and it is VERY close to the “action” of Florence so there is a bit of evening noise from the bridge music, nearby bars/clubs. These were minor and would still absolutely recommend a stay.

This was a very tastefully appointed, efficient apartment. The hostess was gracious and accommodating and the location was perfect. Very close to Ponte Vecchi and the Ufizi gallery. The views of the Arno were splendid and delightful as we could observe the rowing teams practicing their sport. We highly recommend this VRBO.

One wonderful thing about this place is the view… the river at all times of day. You are within a ten minute walk of most places you’d want to go. The apartment was immaculate, with really nice and plentiful linens. Many thanks to Migi, who was welcoming and delightful. I hope to return.

This is one incredible property in Florence. The apartment is just absolutely beautiful and the views were just amazing. It was so special to have fresh flowers waiting for us. We were also welcomed with a bottle of champagne. The host, Migi, was incredibly special and she lived next door. She guided us to the places we wanted to go. The apartment is close to all the major attractions, markets, and shopping. We will definitely be visiting Migi again if we come to Florence! Thanks for everything.
5.0
The apartment was just as advertised- right on the Arno, a block from the Ponte Vecchio. Spotlessly clean, good-sized bedroom, bathroom, and living area with a kitchenette perfect for a week’s stay. The building has a lift, and there is a full-service supermarket on the block. Benedetta communicated everything we needed to know, and her mother-in-law who lives in the building was friendly, helpful but in no way intrusive. A fabulous experience
5.0
The place is exactly as stated and pictured. We fell in love the moment we walked in. The views from every window will stay with you long after you have returned home and make the stay that much nicer. Everything is done so nicely and of the best quality. The bed is truly a king and absolutely comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need to eat at home if needed and the washing machine is easy to use. A drying rack is available.
I could go on and on about the hosts but suffice it to say that they were available immediately to answer questions and help out with restaurant recommendations and airport transport.
Highly recommend!

This little apartment was perfect in every way. The location, just over the Ponte Vecchio was outstanding, and the view of the Ponte Vecchio and the Arno River was breathtaking. There are a number of shops, bars and restaurants within several blocks including an outstanding wine bar just on the ground floor of the building. A good size supermarket is also just across the street. The apartment was very well provisioned. Toiletries, basic kitchen supplies, coffee and paper goods were all supplied. There were even fresh flowers and chocolates there upon my arrival. The host who lives next door was charming and very accommodating. She even provided me with some Christmas decorations. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and you should too!

The apartment is clean and appliances are new. Provisions such as linen, towels, toilet paper, dinnerware, etc. are plentyful. There were also a few goodies in the refrigerator for use. The elevator is a plus for us who has a bit of mobility issue. A bit noisy at night as singing does on at Ponte Vecchio. We had continuing issue with the internet connection.

Lovely views, great space, wonderful hostess right next door. We would definitely stay there again.

I'd give this 11 stars if I could. The apartment is big and comfortable and in a great location. Every site we wanted to visit was within a few minutes walk. While Laura advised us to take a taxi, it's only a 15-20 minutes, flat, walk from the train station. There's a huge grocery store across the street and many places to eat within a few blocks. We had a great time.
