I. · Borgo SS Apostoli · Firenze

A terrace above
the Ponte Vecchio.

Three bedrooms, a private terrace on the Arno, and the keys in our hand at your door.

II. The Residence

Where the Arno
meets the city.

On the corner where Borgo SS Apostoli turns toward the bridge — in a palazzo that has watched the city change around it — a residence that belongs to one family at a time.

Wrapped around Torre dei Baldovinetti, a twelfth-century tower the city has moved around for nine hundred years: three en-suite bedrooms, two living rooms, a private terrace. Measured proportions. Contemporary detail. Nothing shared, nothing borrowed — the whole floor is yours.

VII. Guest Voices
Ultra-luxurious apartment with an unbeatable view of Ponte Vecchio. The best place we've stayed. The balcony is huge and overlooks Ponte Vecchio directly — perfect for an aperitivo or watching the Tuscan sunset.
M.Sydney, Australia · Three bedrooms · March 2026
A wonderful apartment. Spacious, fully renovated, and right in the middle of everything. The balcony is huge and the second living room was a nice retreat. We look forward to staying again on our next visit.

VII bis. Practical · Risposte

Questions, answered.

A few practical notes. Anything else, write to us.

What is the minimum stay?
Five nights. Most guests stay seven to ten — Florence rewards a slower pace.
How does payment work?
30% deposit on confirmation, balance 30 days before arrival. Bank transfer, or Visa / Mastercard / Amex.
Cancellation policy?
Full refund up to 60 days before arrival. 50% from 60 to 30 days. Within 30 days, non-refundable — but date changes are usually possible.
Are children welcome?
Yes. Cot, high chair, and a small selection of children's books are available on request — please mention ages in your inquiry.
Pets?
We are not currently able to accept pets, with apologies. We can recommend trusted pet-sitters in the city.
Accessibility?
The residence is on a single elevated floor, served by a small lift (two persons). The tower passage between wings includes a few steps. Please write if you need detail.

There is no on-site parking — the centre of Florence is a limited-traffic zone. We arrange a private garage two minutes away (€35 / day) or airport / train station transfer by car.
