Tucked away in Florence’s characterful Oltrarno district, Apartment Toscanella is a refined three-bedroom retreat within a 15th-century palazzo once home to Paolo Toscanelli, whose maps guided Columbus. Thoughtfully restored, it blends historic charm with modern ease, think original beams, high ceilings, and handcrafted furnishings. Each bedroom has its own bathroom, with the master suite opening onto a peaceful private terrace in the internal courtyard.

The home’s inviting split-level layout includes a sunlit lounge, elegant dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen perfect for preparing Tuscan fare. Step outside, and you’re moments from the artisan heart of the city, just steps from Palazzo Pitti, the Boboli Gardens, and Ponte Vecchio, yet quietly tucked into a hidden corner that offers a rare sense of calm.

What Oliver loves...

  • Just a short stroll from Florence’s most iconic landmarks, including the Ponte Vecchio, Palazzo Pitti and the Boboli Gardens!
  • Set in the artisan-rich Oltrarno district, surrounded by historic workshops, vintage boutiques and hidden wine bars.
  • Housed in a 15th-century palazzo with beautifully restored interiors and a private terrace for peaceful morning coffees.

What you should know

  • Guests enjoy special rates at a fully equipped gym just 50 metres from the apartment.
  • While the Oltrarno district is charming and vibrant, its narrow-cobbled streets can get lively at times, especially in the evenings.
  • The twin beds in the third bedroom cannot be joined, which may not suit all sleeping arrangements.
