3 GIGLI FLORENCE, Florence

The apartment sits on a small, lively square lined with restaurants, bars, and a pizzeria, making it easy to find dining and drinks without walking far. Despite its vibrant setting, the location is described as quiet at night. Key attractions are within easy walking distance: Santa Maria Novella (11 min), Strozzi Palace (less than 1 km), Pitti Palace (1 km), Piazza del Duomo (17 min), and Uffizi Gallery (1 km). For longer journeys, bus stops are right next to the apartment, and Florence Airport is 6 km away - a paid shuttle service can be arranged. The area is less touristy than the immediate centre, meaning guests can experience local shops, bars, and restaurants. Parking is not available, but the apartment can be reached by car without entering the ZTL restricted zone.

Each apartment is an independent unit with a private entrance. The available units include a 1-bedroom (1 living room, 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom) and 2-bedroom layouts (1 or 2 bathrooms). All are described as spacious, clean, and well-maintained with modern finishes. The living rooms feature a dining area and sofa, plus a flat-screen TV that supports Netflix with the guest's own account. Bedrooms are equipped with comfortable beds (2 beds per unit), and bathrooms include a shower, bidet, and free toiletries. Kitchens are fully fitted with a stovetop, refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, washing machine, tea and coffee maker, and a kettle. The apartments are on the 1st floor with no elevator, but the stairs are minimal. The property has no balconies. The use of air conditioning in each room is a noted advantage, helping maintain a comfortable temperature.

There is no on-site dining facility, and breakfast is not available. However, guests have immediate access to a restaurant, pub, and pizzeria directly in front of the building, which serve food throughout the day and evening. The San Frediano area is filled with local eateries, bars, and cafes offering a wide variety of cuisines, including traditional Florentine specialties like lampredotto. A minimarket is also on site for basic groceries and snacks. For a more substantial meal or a cocktail, several highly rated restaurants and cocktail bars are within a 300-metre walk.

Leisure options at the apartment are focused on exploring Florence rather than on-site facilities. There is no pool, spa, or gym. Instead, the property provides a range of paid organised activities including bike tours, walking tours, tours about local culture, themed dinner nights (off-site), cooking classes (off-site), and temporary art galleries (off-site). These can be booked directly, offering a structured way to experience the city. The concierge service can also help arrange tickets and recommendations.
