Wonderful place to stay; pictures don't do it justice. Great location with morning espresso & pastries, afternoon gelato, and a great dinner steps away down the "alley". The apartment was nicely laid out, with space for everything we needed. Only challenges were figuring out (a) which switch went to which lights (great lighting design, but complex), and (b) how to work the various heating/air conditioning units. Close to all major attractions, but just across the river in a quieter, more relaxing neighborhood. Will stay here again on our next visit to Florence.

Great apartment and location. Close to the bridge, near restaurants, bars and shops, yet still quiet and charming. Lights were confusing Don’t sleep on the delicious tiramisu at the gelato shop at the end of the block.

Absolutely amazing stay! The location was perfect — walkable to everything while still being in a quieter part of the city, so it felt peaceful without missing out on the energy of Florence. There were also two grocery stores nearby which made it easy to grab essentials. The host was incredibly responsive and kindly allowed us to check in early, which we really appreciated after traveling. The apartment itself had such a cool history and charm; they did a wonderful job preserving many of the original features while updating the space, creating a great mix of old and new. One small thing to note is that the pullout couch may not be the most comfortable for adults, though it worked perfectly well for our two kids. Overall, we would absolutely stay here again!

Very cute place and very central to Florence. The AC/heat was a little confusing to get working. I wish that was explained better to us on check-in. The hosts were very responsive, gracious, and accommodating with our requests and help. Having a washing machine in the apartment was a wonderful feature. We did leave laundry detergent for the next guests - enjoy!

Best place we’ve ever stayed in Italia

We absolutely loved our stay at La Bottega del Ferro! The space was super comfortable, clean, and beautifully designed—perfect for relaxing after long days exploring Florence. It’s in a quiet spot but still really close to everything—we walked everywhere! The bed was cozy, the AC worked great, and everything felt so peaceful. We’d definitely stay here again and recommend to others!

A converted artisan iron foundry workshop, very close to the Ponte Vecchio and Pritti palace. A perfect location for a short visit. Extremely well equipped and comfortable. Highly recommend

This is a nice apartment in a great neighborhood! On a quiet street but only a few blocks from Ponte Vecchio and a short walk to central city. Great coffee bar and other restaurants in the nearby piazza. The apartment was clean and well kept. I would definitely stay again!

Bottega di ferro

Apartment is an old iron work shop delightfully decorated with charming metal sculptures. It's modern and nicely appointed, close to everything but not as crowded. I would definitely stay here again.

A Few Steps too all the action

Wonderful and unique La Bottega del Ferro certainly is! Short walks to as much action as you need, or explore the quiet side of the river and all of its uniqueness. Very nice dinner, lunch and breakfast options all in a few block radius.

Great place to stay

The property is in an excellent location and is very comfortable indeed. We didn’t use the kitchen at all as we ate in the delicious restaurants in Florence. The only downside to the property is the complicated lighting system, the fact that some of the lights are continually flickering plus the fact that the overall light level is pretty low. But it didn’t ruin our stay at all!

My husband and I usually stay at a hotel when traveling abroad. We ventured out and decided to stay at this cute VRBO and I’m so glad we did. This large one bedroom is perfect for two, lots of space, very clean and was so convenient to everything we wanted to do In Florence. Great communication and quick responses. Highly recommend!

Funky, fabulous space!

Phenomenal location and super funky fabulous space! A former blacksmith shop with incredible architectural details maintained in a magically urban update. Luxurious accommodations just steps away from award-winning gelato, pizza, and a hip square tucked away from fabulous shopping and nightlife a block from the river. Short walk to take in all the history and delights that Florence has to offer.
