Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Pietra Rest has been designed with simplicity in mind – the large windows, hardwood floors, and muted decor make for a calming and visually appealing space. With one double bedroom and one twin bedroom, the setup is ideal for a family. There’s a sofa bed in the communal area, but since there’s only one bathroom, we don’t think having more than four guests would be optimal. The apartment is located in one of the most historic and vibrant neighbourhoods in Florence, with lively cafes, restaurants, and bars and a lot of the main monuments close by.

Local guide
About Santa Croce
Santa Croce is a trendy, architecturally impressive neighbourhood that’s less busy than the Duomo or San Marco districts, but still in the heart of Florence. Home to the eponymous basilica, and the Casa Buonarroti museum, it’s located in the eastern part of Florence’s historic centre. The largest crowds have thinned out by this point, but if you stay here, you're still close enough to explore the whole city on foot....

Brave the crowds at the Uffizi
There's a reason it's busy – from Leonardo and Botticelli through to Rembrandt, this is one of the most important collections of European art in the world.
Pay respects at Basilica di Santa Croce
Many of Florence's most eminent citizens are buried in the Franciscan church, including Galileo, Machiavelli, and Michelangelo.
Get a coffee at Caffè Le Murate
A combination of a bookshop, a cafe, and a gallery, this arts centre is housed in a former prison, but these days the vibe is slightly different.
Enjoy a Steak at Trattoria Dall'Oste
Indulge in a classic Florentine steak and delicious sides in a good atmosphere. Don't miss the amazing beef tartare.
