4 luxury suites and beautiful frescoes that blend noble Florentine heritage.
Palazzo Tintori Garden apartment is located in a very nice noble building dating back to the 15th Century, right in the heart of the historical centre, the area takes its name from one of the city's most remarkable churches: Santa Croce.
The Santa Croce neighbourhood provides a rare glimpse of old Florence with lively markets and tiny leather and artisan workshops, including the flea market (Mercato delle Pulci) at Piazza dei Ciompi. The Mercato St. Ambrogio, the city's second main food market after the Mercato San Lorenzo, is within close walking distance too. Furthermore, the area is just a short stroll from the river Arno and the city's main cultural attractions such as the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, Palazzo Vecchio and Ponte Vecchio, not forgetting the magnificent Santa Croce church and museum sitting just meters away.
This property is located on the first floor with elevator. Its contemporary design concept is inspired by a minimalist mood, combining clean cut lines, simplicity and a refined colour palette all to enhance the wondrous architectural features this historical Florentine palazzo has to offer.
The apartment is superbly restored and decorated by designer and architect Ilaria Sassolini and her team. This home away from home boasts a genuinely Florentine feel and character, bespoke furnishings and top-quality appliances, and an overall luxury chic essential style.
Great attention to detail and is made during the restoration to seamlessly blend original and modern materials creating an overall totally unique ambience.
Modern comforts in every aspects , including air conditioning, independent heating settings in each room during the colder months, high speed WiFi, latest generation TVs and a high spec sound system .All of the original features melted with stylish contemporary furnishings and exquisite dècor. The superb frescoes have been restored by one of Florence’s most talented and renowned local artisans.
Cool kitchen with large stainless fridge-freezer and endless work top space, a worthy setting for true culinary magic. And what better to do so than when in Tuscany?! Learn to cook like a local in your own authentic kitchen or why not sit down and relax and enjoy a private chef dinner. This space is the perfect spot to gather with friends or family for breakfast or sit down and tuck into a delicious meal after a busy day sightseeing the city of Florence. You will find even include our own personal trove of family recipes, so you can attempt to recreate the enticing aromas of the traditional Italian cuisine, glass of wine in hand, surrounded by the people you love.
The kitchen is be connected to the two living rooms, each one with its own unique concept and “function”. One more informal and “relaxing”, furnished with large spacious sofas, chaise-longues and comfortable upholstered poufs, the other, more formal, again with sofas and chairs, more suited to intimate conversations or after dinner cocktails, made easy with an elegant wet bar that makes serving drinks a delight.
Each of the four luxury bedrooms all en-suite to ensure to give best privacy, exquisitely interior designed with hand-crafted wardrobes for maximum functionality. The suites, plus a studio with double sofa bed mean this home can comfortably hots up to 10 guests.
Last but not least a cool fully equipped garden inner courtyard over 500 sq.ft to enjoy memorable moments outside.
Please note that the apartment is non-smoking. You may only smoke outside on the patio.

Wonderful Stay in Florence
5/5
October 2024
Allison Musselman
After visiting Florence numerous times, this apartment was one of the most beautiful buildings I have ever seen. It was a wonderful, luxurious place to stay and better than any hotel that could have hosted our group. Communication was proactive and Donatella went above and beyond to be a wonderful host. The property itself is absolutely beautiful with an amazing location. I hope to be able to stay at Florence Luxury Home again in the future.

We couldn't have had a better time during our stay at this wonderful Airbnb in Florence, Italy. Everything was perfect! The owners thought of everything we could ever need while away, and we wanted for nothing, which made our trip to Florence so comfortable and enjoyable. The true gem of our stay was Erika. She could not have done enough for us during our visit. From the moment we arrived, she provided a swift yet informative tour of the property, showing us how to work the appliances and ensuring we felt at home. When we faced a potential medical emergency, Erika was incredibly helpful, providing phone numbers and addresses for nearby medical facilities and offering to arrange transportation. Her prompt responses to our questions throughout our stay were invaluable, and she even arranged taxis for our departure, which was incredibly helpful! A huge thank you to the owners and Erika for a fabulous stay in Florence!

Donatella's apartment is just beautiful! The pictures definitely don't do it justice, the attention to detail in the design of each and every room is very impressive. We were a group of 7 people and the home was a perfect size with a fully equipped kitchen and bathrooms. It is well situated, walking distance to all the major spots to visit. Donatella provided a great list of recommendations as well that was very helpful in planning the trip. I would definitely recommend booking Donatella's apartment for your next visit to Florence!

We had a great Christmas in this house. Lots of space to relax and everyone had their own room. Was much larger than we expected. We had a great cooking class in the house. Such fun learning to make pasta and an amazing meal! We were welcomed with multiple bottles of wine. It was great to be right above a grocery store for any of our last minute needs. I highly recommend staying here.

Can't say enough how fabulous this spacious apartment is right in the heart of Santa Croce district where there are lots of shops and restaurants. Everything you could want in Florence is in walking distance from the apartment. I started communicating with Anna a few weeks before our arrival. She was always quick to respond with any questions I had. Upon our arrival, we were met by Erika who helped us get settled in and explained everything thoroughly. I would definitely stay here again in a heartbeat!
