Within walking distance to many sights

The room was nice, clean and our host Vanni was quite accommodating, as we arrived earlier than check-in. The 4-star is for the steep hill you walk up from the river and the significant steep interior steps to the room. Carrying lugguge up the steps was a challenge for two 60+ year old ladies - we still had a fabulous time.

A perfect location at the heart of Florence

The appartement is located south of the Arno river really close to Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Galleries. It's a rather quiet street although it takes only five minutes to walk to the historic centre or the Boboli Gardens. The flat is clean and not to big but two persons got enough space - and our host Vanni was very communicative and reliable. We would always recommend Gemma as a perfect stay for an urban vacation - Lutz and Susanne

Gemma - a “gem”

We had a lovely 9 night stay at “Gemma apartment” in Firenze. The apartment is located on “the other side of the river” near Ponte Vecchio, making it a quiet environment but still within easy access to all major attractions. The property manager has excellent communication skills, responding promptly to enquires. We self catered some of our meals in the small but functional kitchen; aided by the supermarket very close by. The apartment also has a washing machine - very useful after a few weeks of living out of a suitcase! From the apartment it was an easy stroll to the Duomo, David, and the Michelangelo Piazzale with its fabulous views of the city. We also enjoyed exploring Mercato Centrale (a 25 minute walk). If you are looking for a comfortable base, away from the noise of the city centre, we would definitely recommend this apartment.

Great Location

Location is very good! i walked everywhere. Only took a taxi from train station and to airport. Apartment is a good size for 1 or 2 people. It is a 3 floor walk up so make sure you are aware of this if you have heavy luggage. Shower is small, lighting can be improved but there is a new washing machine. Communication with Vanni couldn't be any better! He checked in, stopped by when needed and was very responsive whenever I had questions. There are doing construction on the street, but the apartment was very quiet.
