SHORT-STAY LODGING IN FLORENCE

Located roughly 100 metres from the famous Pontevecchio, one of the most photographed landmarks in Florence, Bed and Breakfast Pontevecchio offers you Florence on your doorstep!

Pretty much all of the major tourist attractions are reachable on foot - use the bus for those that aren't - and you can be at the Uffizi gallery and the Pitti Palace within moments. B and B Pontevecchio offers air-conditioned rooms for rent in the heart of the city, and the accommodation is simple and comfortable - a perfect solution if you are spending a night or so in this most wonderful city. The rooms are bright and welcoming, furnished in a traditional Florentine style, and each has a private bathroom.

The Pitti Palace is a majestic structure comprising several museums including the Galleria Palatina, Florence's second most important art gallery, and home to several works by Titian and Raphael. Behind the palace are the Boboli Gardens, which have wonderful panoramic views over Florence and the surrounding countryside, as well as a rather well-placed tea-room.

To the north of the river Arno (crossing over the Pontevecchio) there is a breathtaking array of things to do and places to see. Florence was at the heart of the Renaissance and has enough to keep art connoisseurs here for weeks if not months. There is some very exciting shopping for label-hunters and antique collectors alike, and the wining and dining is of the highest order.

A lively city at any time of year, many finds and sights are hidden away, and Florence repays exploring on foot, and what could be better than having a base in the very heart of the city?

Breakfast is available at the Antica Pasticceria Maioli, located just in front of the establishment.
