About this property

Cellini's Historic Apartment • Historic Center • 5 min to the Duomo •10 min from the station

Welcome to the Palazzo di Benvenuto Cellini, one of Florence’s most fascinating historic buildings.

The apartment is located in the heart of the city, just a 5-minute walk from the Duomo and Giotto’s Bell Tower, right next to the Central Market.

Recently renovated, the apartment combines modern comfort with the authentic charm of Florentine homes.
The rooms retain their original historic floors, while the spaces have been carefully furnished to offer a pleasant and functional stay.

The apartment features two spacious double bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, and all the amenities needed for short- or medium-term stays.

Santa Maria Novella Station is about a 10-minute walk away.

From the airport, you can easily take the tram to the station or a taxi that will drop you off right in front of the building.

Since it is located in a historic building, the apartment does not have an lift. However, the stairs are wide and comfortable, even for carrying luggage.

If you’re travelling by car, you’ll find the Mercato Centrale Parking Lot and the Luna Parking Lot right nearby—both are popular options among visitors to Florence.

An ideal choice for those who want to experience Florence on foot, immersed in the history, art, and authentic atmosphere of the historic centre.
