Perfect location - literally across the street from the Accademia. Perfect apartment - huge, clean, charming and comfortable. Lovely welcome from Francesca and the cleaning lady who insisted on helping us with our luggage up 2 flights. Felt like home. Will return!

My husband and I enjoyed five nights and thoroughly enjoyed Florence, Francesca and this apartment, which is well located. The air conditioner works wonderfully, the bathroom is nice, well appointed with towels, soaps, hairdryer. The bed is comfortable and our apt on the interior courtyard was very quiet. Highly recommend.

This is our second time in Florence in the last five years and our second time at Palazzo Alfani. The apartments are wonderful...very roomy, clean and well appointed. We had a living room, small kitchen and comfortable bedroom...and it's located in the heart of Florence just 2 blocks north of the Duomo by the David museum. The owner lives in... More

My mother, sister, and I stayed here for 3 nights, arriving on my sister's birthday. This was a fabulous experience. We stayed in the San Marco suite, in which there was a king size bed and a king sized pull out couch in the living room. We chose this suite mainly because of the fresco ceiling and have to confess,... More

We had one of the apartments with the frescos painted on the ceiling of the bedroom. Very spacious apartment and everything was very clean. It's an independent setting with the owner living in the building and willing to help out but no formal hotel-type desk - so make sure to arrange your arrival time. The bed was comfortable, the shower... More

Just returned from 4 nights in the deluxe apartment at Palazzo Alfani. What a wonderful experience. The apartments are situated on the bustling Via Ricasoli opposite the Academia museum. As soon as you walk through the door you enter a peaceful haven from the hectic life of Florence. The apartment we stayed in was huge, with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms,... More

Ciao Francesca, finally I am writing to share such a special and unique accommodation experience. We stayed here in early January 2013, had a fabulous apartment and our teenage son was impressed with the spatial surroundings and to enjoy the wonderful atmosphere of traditional Italian buildings. Truly fantastic location, across the lane to the Accademia and lovely walks to the... More

Very good option for a family stay in Florence. Location is excellent, right in front of the Galleria where Michaelangelo's David is exhibited and very close to the Duomo (cathedral). It's also near San Marco square where buses for Fiesole depart. The apartment is comfortable, nicely decorated (paintings in the roof of the linig room!) and the kitchen very complete.... More

Thanks for taking the time to write. We shall make every effort to be clearer in our literature that the rooms are made-over only every three days, and how to dispose of the room trash. Thank you for pointing this out. We hope that one day you might come back. It was wonderful to meet with you. More

My mother, sister and I recently stayed at Palazzo Alfani and wanted to thank Francesca for her help and hospitality. The apartment was wonderfully decorated and spacious enough for three (twin beds and large sofa bed). The location is great, within walking distance to all the sights and bang opposite 'David' Accademia - you can literally look out your window... More

Thank you for finding the time to comment! We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Yes - we do have stairs (rather beautiful ones - in original pietra siena and we have restored the original banister to its former glory), but for anyone not entirely fit, best to request a room on the first floor - you are...
