Splendid modern apartment teeming with charm in the centre of Florence
In the area being developed alongside the left bank of the Arno River, a few feet from the Pitti Palace and the monumental di Boboli Gardens, the Giunone Apartment is a wonderful property inside a fully renovated and refurbished old urban factory now used for housing. It is the right choice for lovers of modern and contemporary style, and is particularly suitable for a couple or a small family wishing to stay in the centre of Florence.
The apartment:
Located on the first floor (six steps to the lift) of a renovated old factory building on a characteristic main street, the Giunone Apartment is a lovely example of harmonious and functional refurbishment boasting special care for aesthetic detail, without skimping on commodity and comfort. The apartment has a large living room furnished in a minimalist style, with a sofa bed that can be turned into a double bed when necessary (for the third and fourth guest), a chest of drawers, a small armchair, a TV and access to a small terrace. The bedroom is welcoming and is furnished with a double bed and a large built-in wardrobe. The bathroom is particularly modern, with wall-hung sanitary ware and a large shower. The dining room has a table and chairs, and opens onto the adjoining contemporary and fully equipped kitchen, itself with access to a romantic terrace surrounded by climbers and conceived for al fresco dining.
The Giunone apartment also has wireless Internet access, A/C, independent heating, a washing-machine and a dishwasher all available to guests
Please note that in the same building as the Giunone we also have the Giunone II apartment, allowing large groups to spend their holidays together.
Minimalist, teeming with charm and in a central location, the Giunone Apartment is a tasteful choice with endless character to ensure a fantastic holiday in Florence!

Oltrarno
The name Oltrarno means “beyond the Arno” and this district along the south bank of the river presents a difference Florence. Quieter, greener, more relaxed, and with less traffic, it is one of the most rewarding areas where to stay in Florence.
Traditionally an artisans’ quarter Oltrano is still home of small workshops (particularly furniture stores and leather-workers) and Via di Maggio remains the focus of Florence’s thriving antiques trade. Then, it also became a rather chic area for aristocrats to build palaces on the edge of the countryside. The largest of these, the Pitti Palace, became the home of the grand dukes and today houses a set of museums second only to the Uffizi. Among the major sights, the Cappella Brancacci stands out for its fabulous fresco cycle and San Miniato counts among Tuscany’s finest Romanesque treasures. Here you can also discover the Boboli Gardens, Florence’s best park.
But to discover the true character of Florence, step into the side streets, brimful of tiny authentic restaurants and bars (like in Piazza Santo Spirito), antique shops and artisans’ studios.
