Everything was perfect, the apartment has everything you will need for a quick or long stay, very comfortable and in an unbeatable location, plus Alessandra is an amazing host. Super recommended.
Alessandra is a superb host! She welcomed us upon our arrival with warmth and a wealth of information and suggestions. The apartment was spacious, very clean and comfortable. The location was phenomenal, close to restaurants, museums and shops. Highly recommend this apartment and genuine host.
Alessandra was a wonderful and amazing host. Very informative and helpful, providing recommendations as soon as we arrived. Her apartment is beautiful, spacious and clean. Highly recommend if you are looking for a home away from home while visiting beautiful Florence!
Boboli apartment will be my go-to destination when staying in Florence. Strategically and conveniently located in a quiet area of the city with lots of residential property, and everything about the apartment exuded a comfortable vibe. Our host, Alessandra couldn’t have been more pleasant, gracious, and helpful. We clearly felt right at home in the apartment and will definitely come back on our next visit to Florence!
I chose this apartment for the fantastic reviews and the lovely photos of the renovated property. However, it exceeded our expectations! The apartment was adorable, very livable, equipped with everything you need including a washer and drying rack that was super handy. Our host Alessandra was ABOVE & BEYOND, she was so responsive prior to arrival, and once we got there she met us and gave us fabulous information about must sees, and things to do. I had left a small bag in the taxi with all of my toiletries & jewelry for our 2 1/2 week stay, :( Alessandra immediately called the taxi companies (on hold forever) trying to locate my bag...she even tried again the next day informing me along the way. No bag found, but appreciated her concern and effort so much. Very rare these days it seems. I would highly recommend Boboli for your next stay, 10/10 for the accomodations, location, and wonderful host! Ciao until next time, Boboli! ox
Alessandra was very flexible with check in which we needed because we were late arriving! She met us and showed us everything. The flat was very spacious and a quick walk to everything. Alessandra has a book she made with a ton of information and recommendations for things to do and food. We would definitely stay there again!
We stayed for 6 nights. The apartment was comfortable and conveniently located on the “quiet” side of the Arno but within easy walking distance to all sights. Lots of terrific restaurants for dinner where the locals eat. Prices and food absolutely wonderful. Alessandra was a great communicator and was able to let us in earlier than the standard check in time. We would definitely stay there again.
Sorts of tips for where to eat etc in a book that gives
The apartment is located in Oltrarno, near The Holy Trinity Bridge. It is an artisan quarter with craft shops, small delicatessens, excellent eateries for all budgets, food market and food / craft market a stone's throw away in Santo Spirito Square on Sundays.
It felt very safe.
Alessandra was there to meet us and explained everything we needed to know.
It was very special to stay in Florence where the visit felt like we were living there rather than just occupying a room in a hotel.
This apartment is very close to the Pitti Palace and the Boboli Gardens, the latter being a definite must see as the views of the Tuscan countryside are spectacular.
I would try to book this apartment again should the need ever arise.
L'hôtesse qui nous a accueilli chaleureusement, nous a gentiment donné de judicieux conseils de visites. L'appartement, remarquablement bien placé (tout à été fait à pieds) était dans un excellent état de propreté.
Le quartier est très calme mais toutes les commodités sont très proches.
Nous recommandons sans réserve cet appartement à qui veut visiter Florence.
Vous ne serez pas déçus...
The apartment was exactly as advertised, very clean and spacious, perfect for our family of 3. All equipment that we needed to prepare meals after long days of exploring was provided and if we didn't feel like cooking, there were many restaurants nearby. The proximity to the historical centre was ideal, and the quiet neighbourhood was great to come back to at the end of the day. Alessandra is a wonderful host; excellent communications, helpful and provided very useful recommendations and information to introduce us to Florence. Anyone looking for a comfortable, quiet apartment that's close to major attractions (Uffizi, Boboli Gardens, Palazzo Pitti, Ponte Vecchio) would be pleased to stay here.
Beautiful and spacious apartment in a wonderful neighborhood!
Alessandra was a wonderful host, and was very responsive and helpful in coordinating everything prior to our arrival. The apartment is located on the second floor with wonderful natural lighting, and is incredibly spacious. The neighborhood is quiet, and we loved the locality to landmarks like the Ponte Vecchio (10min), Uffizi (15min), and the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore (20min) as well as the plethora of delicious local offerings, many of which she has curated through a very helpful map and accompanying guidebook she provided. Definitely book this space for the Florence leg of your trip if it's available!
When my husband and I decided to spend the summer in Florence, we looked for an apartment that would be comfortable for an extended stay. We wanted prime location, but not in the middle of all the busyness where tourists or locals hang out late into the night. The Oltrano is perfect for this. The apartment is just a 3 min walk to Piazza Santo Spirito and the Pitti Palace where restaurants are in abundance.
The apartment offers a full kitchen to accommodate meals for the times that we wanted to eat in and excellent air conditioning for those hot summer days. This apartment was perfect for us! The pictures represent the space well.
Allesandra went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed, as well as made herself available for any questions we had during our stay. Keep in mind if you are looking for an apartment with an elevator this building does not have one. It was fine for my husband and I because we welcomed the stairs after big meals but the first day with all of the luggage was the toughest.
My husband and I each own a business which meant we had to work during our stay, and we needed excellent Wi-Fi which the apartment also had.
Overall excellent experience and we would highly recommend it.
My wife and I booked this apartment after looking at many properties in Florence. We were not disappointed with our choice.
The apartment was exactly as described and shown in the pictures. It was perfectly located on the 2nd floor down a very quiet side street on the south side of the River Arno. Although it felt that it was just outside of the really busy tourist areas, it was only a 10-15 minute walk to the south side of the Ponte Vecchio, and on to all of Florence’s main sights. Travel from the airport to the apartment was easy on the T2 tram to the station. It was then just a 10 minute bus ride to a bus top near the apartment.
The apartment was spotlessly clean and had all we needed to make our stay comfortable. The air conditioning in the lounge and bedroom was much needed in the Florentine summer heat. The kitchen was well equipped with new appliances, including a clothes washer and a dishwasher.
Alessandra was very welcoming and patient with the fact that our phones initially refused to access the Internet and show us the Google map for the 3 minute walk from the bus stop to the apartment. TIP: If you are getting a bus to the apartment, take a printed copy of the map, just in case.
We would stay in Alessandra’s apartment again without hesitation.
My daughter and her friend stayed at Alessandra’s beautiful apartment for six nights and had a wonderful time. They had everything they needed and then some. Alessandra’s communication was excellent!
We had a lovely time in Florence. This spacious apartment was well equipped and was in a great location for walking to all attractions. We had some initial problem connecting to Wi-Fi,but given time it worked well. I would highly recommend this property if you wish to vacation in Florence
I had an incredible experience with this property. The host made me feel very welcome and was so helpful to me. The apartment was in a perfect location and had all of the essentials for a comfortable month long stay. It was spacious, the kitchen was well stocked and it was a perfect retreat from the crowds in the tourist areas. I would love to stay here again in the future.
