Hotel Details

Location

In the real heart of Florence, with the Duomo 5 minutes away and Santa Maria Novella station a short walk.
Il Gigliolo Apartment sits in a central yet quiet side street, placing the Duomo (Piazza del Duomo) within a 3-5 minute walk, Palazzo Vecchio 6 minutes away, and the Uffizi Gallery 11 minutes on foot. The Santa Maria Novella train station is also within easy walking distance, making it convenient for day trips to Siena, Pisa, or airport tram access. Public transport connections are excellent, and most of the historic centre's attractions, restaurants, and shops are reachable without a car.

Accommodation

A one-bedroom apartment with a separate living room, private bathroom, and a fully equipped kitchenette.
The apartment comprises one bedroom with a comfortable double bed, a living room with a sofa bed, and one bathroom with a shower and free toiletries. The kitchenette includes a stovetop, oven, refrigerator, kettle, and utensils, along with a washing machine - practical for longer stays. The living area features a flat-screen TV, dining table, and a seating area. Parquet flooring, air conditioning, heating, and a wardrobe are provided. Additional bedding (2 beds total) includes the sofa bed for a third guest. The unit is on the first floor with lift access, and road-facing rooms are noted for quietness given the side-street position.

Dining

No on-site restaurant, but the apartment has a well-equipped kitchenette and is surrounded by dining options.
The apartment does not have a restaurant or breakfast service, so all meals are self-catered or taken nearby. The kitchenette includes a stovetop, oven, refrigerator, kettle, and basic cooking supplies, allowing full meal preparation. A supermarket (Vivi-Market) is a 3-minute walk away for groceries. Within a 5-minute radius, there are multiple restaurants and trattorias, including Trattoria Za Za and Trattoria Mario (0.5 km), and Ristorante Lorenzo de' Medici (0.5 km). The central location puts a wide range of pizzerias and historic eateries within easy walking distance.

Wellness and Leisure

The property does not offer a spa, pool, or on-site wellness facilities.
Il Gigliolo Apartment focuses on comfortable self-catered accommodation in the city centre. There is no spa, gym, swimming pool, or leisure area. For relaxation, guests can walk to nearby public gardens or enjoy the smart TV in the apartment. The central position makes it easy to explore Florence's cultural sights, galleries, and markets on foot.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book well in advance to secure a parking reservation at the affiliated nearby garage, as spaces are limited and charges apply.

  • 02

    Arrive at check-in (15:00-19:00) to avoid the need to manage keys via a remote process, and use the luggage storage if arriving early.

  • 03

    Request an early or late check-in/out only if your travel plans are flexible, as special requests cannot be guaranteed.

  • 04

    Plan meals using the well-equipped kitchenette and the nearby supermarket (5 min walk) instead of relying on an on-site restaurant, which is not available.
