ALBA APARTMENT - FLORENCE
2 Bedrooms
Location and Surrounding Area
Located on the northern edge of Florence, this apartment is housed within a residence that pays modern tribute to the city's rich artistic heritage. This beautifully restored building is a masterful blend of contrasts, where age-old charm meets contemporary aesthetics. Decadent frescos, baroque portraits, and plush velvet furnishings create an atmosphere of refined elegance, while the palatial sense of space sets it apart as a truly unique retreat in Florence.
From here, guests can easily explore Florence’s most iconic landmarks, strolling through its cobbled streets, Renaissance treasures, and lively cafés. Just moments away, the Duomo dominates the skyline, its marble façade and Brunelleschi’s dome standing as symbols of the city’s artistic grandeur. Art lovers can admire Botticelli’s Birth of Venus at the Uffizi Gallery or marvel at Michelangelo’s David in the Accademia Gallery. A walk across the Ponte Vecchio, with its jewellery boutiques, offers a glimpse into Florence’s rich past.
Beyond its artistic wonders, Florence captivates with its grand piazzas and green spaces. The Piazza della Signoria, an open-air museum of sculptures and historic buildings, is a perfect spot to soak in the city’s energy. For a quieter escape, the Boboli Gardens offer manicured lawns, fountains, and shady paths. To take in the full beauty of Florence, a climb to Piazzale Michelangelo rewards visitors with breathtaking views over the city’s rooftops and rolling Tuscan hills.
As evening falls, Florence reveals its most romantic and atmospheric side. The streets glow with lantern light, and the scent of traditional Tuscan cuisine fills the air. Elegant wine bars and trattorias serve pappardelle with wild boar ragù, handmade pecorino ravioli, and the famous bistecca alla fiorentina, perfectly paired with fine Chianti wines. Whether discovering its history, indulging in its food, or simply soaking in its unique charm, Florence offers an experience that stays with you long after you leave.
