Live in the Renaissance with modern amenities

Great location and service. The pictures online don’t do this plac

Awesome location

We enjoyed the apartment very much! The location of the apartment is excellent and theneighborhood is safe. A good coffee cafe is nearby as well as good restaurants.

Perfect location, beautiful building, well-equipped apartment. And Roberta was extremely helpful and flexible. Highly recommend this apartment!

Beautiful place to stay in a great area!! ReallyGood communication and fast to respond. I would recommend this place to stay for a trip to Florence.

The location is incredible. It’s a block from the Arno river and a short walk to the top sights in Florence.

Host was most welcoming and helpful. The apartment is beautiful and wonderfully located. Everything we needed was at hand and the host’s restaurant recommendations were great!

Great location (the restaurant downstairs was one of the best), such a cozy space with beautiful ceilings. Very unique and very comfortable.Walkable to SMN, ponte vecchio, oltrarno, uffizzi - literally everything was right outside the door including the 23 bus.Loved this place and loved Florence!

Roberta was wonderful. We had to take the train into the city and then walk quite a long way because of a taxi strike. She waited for us and even sent a friend to find us on the streets to make sure we didn’t get lost. She also stopped by and grabbed us a reservation at the wonderful and very busy restaurant in the building so we could have a nice dinner with no more walking after our travels. The apartment was lovely. It’s perfect for a couple who want to be in the heart of Florence, but still have a quiet place to come home too. The internal courtyard makes it feel very secluded, but when you walk out the door you are only a short walk to all the sights. The restaurants she recommended were great, and we had a wonderful time in Florence and the apartment was the perfect place to rest our head at the end of the day. We would certainly stay again.

The apartment was perfectly located with the Uffizi gallery located a short walk away and the river with an amazing view of Ponte Vecchio from the closest bridge. The neighborhood was vibrant with easy access to stores and restaurants. I have celiac disease and was very excited to have two exclusively gluten free restaurants, with homemade bread and pasta, within mere blocks.

Roberta was a wonderful host-met us there and explained everything to operate. Good location also

The location was great and the kitchen amenities were great…but we ate out the entire time. Amazing restaurant one street over Osteria! We became regulars. We didn’t know about the Florence marathon which was a lot on our our street as there is construction on the road near the Arno. I live in Chicago so ours is way over the top for traffic drama.We finally figured out the Italian keys. They pull out of the lock horizontal. Enjoy

This was the most wonderful experience my husband and I have had at a rental. The building which was built as a palace during the Renaissance was very special and the apartment within the building was extremely comfortable and spacious. It was very quiet and in a great area within walking distance of many restaurants and sites. Roberta was a wonderful host, easy to contact and went above and beyond in all ways. I hope to go back!

Just as listed, very much enjoyed our stay in Florence, and this VRBO made it most enjoyable!

Unbelievably beautiful courtyard leads you to a lovely apartment with arched ceilings and wonderful character. The kitchen and bathroom are very spacious. The living room if comfortable and inviting. The bedrooms are a bit small but the beds are comfortable (all you need for a good night’s sleep). The apartment was immaculate. The owner was lovely. Check in was easy and she showed us how things in the apartment worked. She had a book that had helpful information including good restaurants in the neighborhood.Although everything about the apartment was great, the best part of this rental is the location. You turn one corner and yourself on a street full of restaurants and stores, you turn right and walk one block and you’re at the Arno River. You turn left and walk 2 blocks and you’re at the Basilica of Santa Croce. The location is just perfect.I would highly recommend this rental if you want to be in the heart of Florence in a beautiful, comfortable and clean apartment.

This was one of the best apartments we have ever stayed in. It was beautiful, spacious, and ideally located. Roberta was friendly and very helpful. We couldn’t have asked for a better place. It made our time in Firenze even more wonderful!

All communication with Roberta was quick and helpful. The apartment is right in the centre of the main landmarks of the city, very close to the river. Everything was easy walking distance, yet in a quiet area. The apartment is very comfortable and well stocked with anything you may have forgotten to bring. The ceiling is beautiful and the building is from the 1500s. Would highly recommend.

As with other reviewers, I can't say enough about how wonderful our stay was. My friend had never stayed in a VRBO before; she has now said she would never stay in a hotel again on trips like ours.Roberta got in touch with us shortly after booking -- which was about three mo in advance -- with some additional, detailed information, which also let us know that we were on her radar; sometimes I tend to stress about whether a reservation has actually gotten to the host. She promptly responded to questions we had in the interim. She contacted us again just before we arrived, to confirm what time we would like to check in, then met us in person. She has compiled a house book with everything from manual pages for using the washing machine to top recommendations for local gelaterias, which was incredibly helpful.The apartment itself was more spacious than we'd expected, with a complete kitchen, washer, dishwasher, coffeemaker, and had ample closet space, a lot of hangers and a large, collapsible clothes-drying rack. It is ideally located -- 5 min walk to Santa Croce and a supermarket; maybe 12-15 to the Duomo; about the same to Ponte Vecchio; 2 min to a street with a lot of small shops, restaurants, and a very good gelateria. Even though it is on a busy street, the windows face either over the courtyard or over a side street, so it was quiet; we had no trouble sleeping.If I'm ever lucky enough to make it back to Florence, this is where I'll stay. Grazie mille, Roberta!

We enjoyed the location of the property, five minute walk to the Arno river. There was a spectacular courtyard as soon as you walked into the property. Only one flight of stairs to carry suitcases. Having air conditioning was welcomed when staying in July. Only negative was to access one of the bedrooms, you had to enter via the bathroom (which if someone was using,not possible) or enter through the other bedroom. Nowhere to open out a suitcase in either bedroom.

Great location and very good communications and check in process with the hosts

The property is amazing. They had everything we could have possibly needed. It was very clean and comfortable. Roberta was very nice and helpful. Highly recommend. La Buchetta just downstairs outside was lovely as well.

We stayed here for 9 days and everything was as described. Easy check in and clear instructions for checking out. We came in by train and the cab ride was 20 euros. We only had to use taxis 3 times. Going to train station twice and once for an early morning tour. Highly recommend.

The apartment is a great choice. The location is perfect, a close walk to so many points of interest, places to eat or purchase food. All of rooms are very clean with lovely architectural details. Modern kitchen and bath! Check in and out was very easy. Price is good for what you get. Excellent host communication.

Amazing location and property, exactly as how you see it in the pictures. Roberta was responsive to any questions and was there to meet us on arrival to the apartment. Would definitely recommend this place

Absolutely LOVED this apartment ! The remodel was well done on this 1600’s building.All the convenience of a modern apartment in a well maintained historic building . The location is perfect for walking to all our destinations, yet we felt more like a local in our neighborhood and not a tourist in the crowds . Would highly recommend & would stay there again .

Roberta was an excellent host. She went out of her way when our flight was delayed to still be there for us at check in. The place is exactly like advertised and its location made it perfect to explore the city on foot. We read the other reviews too and there was some excellent information within them to make our stay even smoother.

Lovely apartment in great neighborhood for sightseeing. Loved the intimate Horne museum across the street, which we wouldn’t have visited otherwise. Roberta was very accommodating re: our arrival time and luggage storage the day we left.

This is the second time we’ve stayed at palazzo Bardi, with Roberta as our host. We stayed for a total of seven nights perfect amount for seeing the sites of Florence.Roberta was available and accommodating to all of our needs. We were able to message her and get replies almost immediately. There was very little to contact her about. The apartment is beautiful with painted star ceilings

We had such a wonderful time, in such a beautiful location. It was so close to every wonderful thing to experience in Florence (Ufizzi, Piazza Michelangelo, Ponte Vecchio). The moment upon seeing the apartment garners and immediate Ohh wow! response. Brunelleschi nailed it! Wonderful stay at an amazing apartment! Can't wait to return some awesome day!

An absolutely wonderful apartment in a building designed by Brunelleschi in the 15 th century. Perfect location near the Uffizi. Wonderful restaurants within a short walk. Highly recommended

Roberta was great. She was very responsive and considerate and helped with anything we asked for. My husband didn’t love the location at first but then it grew on us. The restaurant in the building was great too and told us about the history of the building which helped us to really appreciate the apartment and the building even more.

Loved the apartment and location. Roberta was the best host, easy and fast communication.

Lovely property with immense history located in a walkable neighborhood close to many local sights. Roberta was very communicative - there was a little hiccup with check in timing but it worked out in the end. Would definitely reccomend to anyone travelling to Florence if they want to stay in a truly historic place with personality not a hehnric hotel rom. than

We have been here three times- we love the location, safety, and charm of this space . Always a joy

Clean place in an excellent location.

Great location, close to many sites and dining. Enjoyed staying there!

We enjoyed staying at this place. From the first day where our host, Roberta, welcomed us and explained everything we needed. To the beautiful apartment, that is designed with Florence architectural signature and that is well equipped. The location is near the historical center of Florence. Also, the restaurant just located after exiting the building is a place to go if you love meat and pasta. Definitely we recommend staying at this place where you're a couple or a family of 4.

This is a well renovated, chic apartment where no space is wasted. Everything you need is there. Though the footprint is not big, because of the layout, the four of us feel comfortable staying in the apartment. The location of this apartment affords a quiet stay yet it is walking distance from important places that you would want to visit. Bonus: the restaurant attached to the building is excellent so you don’t have to walk far to look for great meals. We were there consecutive nights and the owners were accommodating.

Very comfortable stay in a great location. Walking distance to all major sites. AC was great after a hot day of walking around. Check in was easy. Would definitely recommend this location.

We loved this apartment! Convenient to everything. Close to amazing restaurants in Santa Croce. Market 1/2 Block away was awesome. Restaurant downstairs was fantastic! We will stay here again. Roberta was kind and informative! Everything we needed for our time in Beautiful Florence! 💜🇮🇹
