Fantastic property with access to local living

Communication was great with Silvia from start to finish. She and Emmanuel were very welcoming. The apartment exceeded our expectations. We loved the location. It was also within easy walking distance to great restaurants and all of the museums and galleries. We will definitely refer our friends and colleagues and hope to one day return.

Silvia and Emmanuel are the perfect hosts for a perfect, comfortable and well appointed apartment in Florence. Everything needed is very convenient, and the beautiful attractions are but a short walk away. We couldn't have been more satisfied. Thank you both for going out of your way to make our 52nd anniversary trip all that we dreamed of. Lorraine and Dick

Couldn’t be more pleasant

This spotless, comfortable, and well-appointed apartment was perfect for my husband, myself, and our 20 year old son. Silvia, the manager and family owner, made everything easy and smooth, communicating with us each step of the way. She provided us with terrific suggestions for travel, restaurants, activities, and anything else we needed. Everything we needed or didn’t even know we needed was in the apartment, which made our short stay a great one. The location was not far from the center, and the bus and tram were close, affordable, and easy. We highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Florence.

Beautiful rose

Le Rose de Leonardo was exactly as advertised! Great location on a pedestrian street, close to important sites, extremely walkable, near the grocery and restaurants and the most delicious gelato shop! It was extremely clean, comfortable, and well appointed...home away from home! Our host, Sylvia, was gracious, warm and helpful. She provided all the basic needs and greeted us with a bottle of chianti! We would recommend Le Rose unreservedly!

Lovely apartment in vibrant district

The apartment’s location, amenities, and owner support combined to make our stay in Firenze comfortable, fun, and a great value for the money. Silvia (who lives in the same building) dropped extra pillow cases and a 2nd Wi-Fi router at our door shortly after our call for help. The apartment is on a vibrant but quiet pedestrian-only block and is only steps from a busy piazza offering public transport opportunities. Silvia is great, the apartment is clean and highly functional, and Firenze is bellisima! Book this place!!!

Great Host - Great stay

Silvia was a great and friendly host. I was having trouble arranging a taxi for our next day departure, so she called the taxi company to make arrangements for us. Although she was unsuccessful as well, she took up her valuable time trying to make it happen. Apparently, taxis can be a little unreliable. So we walked to the train station instead. FYI it was only a 30 minute walk and very doable if you desire. The apartment was very nice. The street can be a little noisy but with the windows closed there was no street noise at all. Thanks Silvia We enjoyed our stay!

ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL

Hosts were incredibly helpful and thoughtful. We arrived five hours late but they stayed to help us into the apartment and explain everything. A bottle of good Chianti awaited us. Apartment is large, really thoughtfully furnished and well equipped. Everything was clean and functioning. Bed and pillows extremely comfortable. The main bedroom has large closets and multiple drawers. If you’d like to unpack during your stay, this is the place for you. The neighborhood is lively in a good way, with people enjoying the evening outdoors. Really good neighborhood restaurants, cafes, and gelato just minutes away. We loved being in a real neighborhood away from the tourist crowds, but only a 15’ish minute walk to the center. Host has installed excellent soundproof windows. There are mini splits for air conditioning and ceiling fans to keep the rooms very comfortable. Examples of the hosts’ thoughtfulness are things like giving you two sets of keys, two umbrellas, multiple pods for the espresso maker, bottled water, the good Chianti, and more. Great guestbook explains everything and lists numerous restaurants, nightlife places with charming recommendations. Silvia answered all our texts really quickly and helpfully. She went above and beyond to make sure we were well cared for. We look forward to returning!

Florence, your home away from home.

Hi all, Charming & very helpful hosts. Silvia & Emanuele greeted us on arrival & showed us through the apartment (first floor) which was spotlessly clean. Comfortable beds✅ Easy cooking with gas. Dishwasher Lg fridge. Close to “Coop” supermarket with everything you would need for food, drink etc, plus helpful staff. Flat located in charming pedestrian street with variety of shops, fashion, homewares, gelato & food & banks. A plus was the bus stop for the “Hop on & Hop off” bus close by. Check out the bus route and see the location close by to Silvia & Emanuele apartment. Take gel ear plus with just incase street is noisy. ( hosts supply foam ear plugs but gel mould to your inner ear, just more comfortable 😊) But it wasn’t a issue with us as we were exhausted from all the sightseeing! Very helpful hosts, book a taxi for a 6am pick up for us, no problem to get us to train station. Thank you for a great stay Silvia & Emanuele. Your the best hosts on our European tour! 👋😘 Sue van Twest.

Wonderful apartment with all amenities.

The apartment is situated on a vehicle free street with a lovely vibe, a bit away from the main tourist area. It was completely soundproof, despite the energy from the street below. Everything needed for our stay was provided, and it was obvious that a great deal of thought had gone into fitting out the unit for holiday guests. Clear directions were given on the use of all the appliances. Silvia, our hostess, also went out of her way to provide helpful local information, particularly about restaurants and cafes. We’d be very happy to return to this apartment.

There are no details that Sylvia has not thought about to make you feel welcome. The apartment is in a great location, close enough to walk to the centre of the city and just far enough away from it so it is a little quieter. The space is spotless and had everything we needed.

séjour enchanté à Florence

Tout d'abord, l'acceuil de Silvia et Emanuele a notre arrivée a été très chaleureux. Leur disponibilité et leur conseils (notamment pour les restaurants, marchés) précieux. L'appartement est situé dans un quartier à peine 10 minutes de marche des sites touristiques les plus connus. La rue est piétonne et animée. Pourtant, l'appartement est calme et tout a été pensé pour que le bruit de la rue ne soit pas répercuté à l'intérieur. C'est la première fois que nous avons un logement aussi propre et surtout où tout est présent.Il suffit d'y poser ses valises et partir à la découverte de Florence! Merci à Silvia et Emanuele, ils sont à l'image des florentins rencontrés: acceuillants et souriants. Dominique et Chantal.

Fantastic stay in Florence

We had a terrific stay in Silvia and Emanuele's apartment, which is located in a fun, lively and extremely convenient part of the city. We were able to get around all over to sites and restaurants/bars walking pretty much the entire time. Even immediately after booking our stay the communication with Silvia was fantastic and she even helped us book a reservation at a nearby restaurant (Osteria Vini E Vecchi Sapori) which didn't take online reservations, and became one of our favorite meals of our trip, so we can't thank her enough. She checked in with us after our initial check-in (which she was able to accommodate a little earlier) to see if we needed anything and make sure things were fine, and went the extra mile to help us out with some Wi-Fi troubleshooting. Overall, wonderful, clean apartment in a wonderful location with an even more wonderful host. We would definitely love to visit Florence again and we'd be very happy to stay at Silvia and Emanuele's place again!

A wonderful apartment and host in a wonderful city :)

We had an absolutely amazing stay here in Florence, thanks in large part to this amazing apartment and our awesome host, Silvia. Silvia was always so prompt to answer any questions we had, and she gave us a wonderful introduction to the apartment once we arrived, complete with recommendations of nearby stores, restaurants, and landmarks. The apartment was clean, beautiful, and stocked with all the basics we could use. And the location was amazing! We walked everywhere, to galleries, churches, the Ponte Vecchio, restaurants, and cafes. It was so handy to be able to drop things off in the apartment and then continue on with our day. We’d love to stay in this apartment on a future visit and would recommend it to anyone visiting Florence.
