This is a beautiful apartment in a perfect location--directly across the Arno from the Uffizi Gallery. With a supermarket nearby, we found it easy to purchase a few items to enjoy on the magnificent rooftop terrace. The view of the city is unparalleled. It was a perfect place for our few days in Florence. @abnb

Excellent choice for a trip to Florence. We informed Diana in advance of our arrival time and we're met within a few minutes of arriving to the apartment. She also made taxi arrangements for us to return to the train station for our departure. The apartment is very spacious by local standards and completely clean and adoreable. The building is just a block or two from Santa Croce Basilica in a a very walkable area. We took advantage of one Diana's concierge tours (Wine Explorer) and had a wonderful time riding around Tuscany with Stefano, exploring Siena and visiting at local winery. @abnb

The apartment was just as announced. Comfortable, clean, good location. Diana was always available and helpful. @abnb

This is a stunning apartment! We lived the beautifully decorated rooms, the terrace, and the friendly cat we saw our first day. Also, the kitchen & laundry are very convenient. Highly recommended! @abnb

Excellent apartment in the center of Florence! The apartment is placed in great location, is comfortable and contains everything that do you need for you vacation! Hostess is very friendly! And one more thing - I could recommend very nice little and typical Italian restaurant "La Carbonata di Antonio Porrati" just in a few minutes of walking from the apartment. Everything was perfect!

This is a great apartment in the absolutely perfect location. 50 meters to the Ufizzi, Ponte Vechhio, and Piazza Signore yet in a small, quiet, piazza with great neighboring restaurants. Large rooms and comfortable bed and chairs with a nice kitchen. Great place for a few days or a month. @TripAd

A relaxing ride through Tuscany, with a couple of enchanting stops along the way, finishing at a lovely family owned winery. Nice number of stops and length of time at each.

The design, location and the furnitures were excellent. The house is in quick access to the Centre with lots of good restaurants, cafés, bars around. The only thing is; the street where the house is located can be too much fun and may get very busy at night time; so can be a bit overwhelming after a long and tiring day, if you wish to have a silent night;) it was fun and a great experience to stay though. Diana is a very polite and nice host as well... @airbnb

The apartment was in a fantastic location, walking distance from everywhere central. Spotlessly clean, we loved our stay and would definitely recommend to anyone travelling to Florence! @airbnb

Nous avons passé 3 semaines super dans l’appartement Gelsomino . L’appartement est spacieux , confortable , bien meublé ,avec du caractere et bien équipé avec tout ce qu’il faut . Cet appart est très bien placé pour tout faire a pied dans Florence ,il y a des restaurants et commerces proches ,et le marché de S.Ambroggio est super . Nous avons profité de la terrasse très agréable. Diana et son équipe sont sympas, réactives et attentives a toutes nos demandes

This is a great apartment within easy walking distance (6 mins) of Ponte Vecchio. It is in a quiet residential part of Florence n the area where real locals dine so you have great food right on the doorstep at non-tourist prices. The place is clean and tidy, all communication was of the highest level and we were greeted at the apartment on arrival. Be aware that you've got to climb four flights of stairs to reach the apartment but this gives your rooftop views, great light, and peace and quiet. We travelled in from Pisa on the train and it took us about 25-30 mins to walk (with our luggage) from Florence station to the apartment. @abnb

Dream apartment in the very center of Firenze, with incredible style, fantastic views, fully modern renovation with heated floors in the bedroom! Can be slightly noisy due to an active market area in close proximity, but nothing too problematic. We we're met by the host's friend, Alessandra, who was very personable and easy-going. Truly an unforgettable apartment. @abnb

This apartment really was a gem! It looks exactly as in the pictures. A beautiful apartment on the fourth floor of a very old building inside a beautiful courtyard. It was very clean, very spacious and well laid out. We stayed with our two children (3 and 5) and they loved it. The climb up the stairs is of course only for the able-bodied, but we only did it twice a day so it was no big deal. The kitchen was spacious and well-equipped. There were even staples like sugar and tea available. The bathroom was immaculate, included a washing machine and even little shampoo and lotion. We felt like we were in a 5-star hotel. It is about a 5 minute walk from Santa Croce and about 8 minutes to the Duomo. There is a tiny little food market on the corner with anything you might want for snacks or cold breakfast, and a larger supermarket about two blocks away for other needs. Restaurants, shops, etc. Are all within 5 minutes walk away. We also took advantage of nearby bus stops to get to certain attractions (you can buy a ticket for 2euros on the bus). Communication was great and check-in with the management company was very friendly and professional. My parents stayed in a 4-star hotel around the corner that wasn't as nice as this! You won't find a better place in Florence! @abnb

I cannot rate this flat highly enough, it is perfect! If you want to relax on a lovely rooftop terrace with a glass of wine and a view of the Duomo - you've come to the right place. Very spacious and beautiful, on top of this Diana was the perfect host. Great communication every step of the way - we hope to come back for another visit soon.

L'appartamento è davvero bello, dotato di tutti i confort e si trova in una splendida zona. @abnb

Look no further! I stayed in Florence at another location that was great but this was fantastic! Being on the ground floor was a bonus and it was quieter at night due to the rooms not being close to the road. One of the best features is the outdoor area and the beautiful glass window. It was so nice to sit outside and have a wine and snack. The living space and kitchen were perfect. The amenities were all you needed for a comfortable stay. I needed to use my laptop for work and the wi- fi worked fine. The location is also wonderful. It was so easy to just walk out your door and be close to everything. There was a nice market just down the street as well as indoor restaurants and ones that had outdoor seating. All of our meals were excellent in the immediate area surrounding the home. Diana is a wonderful host! We were having trouble booking a taxi to the airport and she got immediately back to us and took care of it. You will not be disappointed. It really felt like home and we of course didn't want to leave. Enjoy your stay! @abnb

La ubicación era perfecta, muy acogedor, el diseño estupendo, nos permitio hacer el check out mas tarde de la hora prevista, volveré a repetir cuando vuelva a florencia!

There was absolutely nothing about this apartment that wasn't just as I wanted it to be. The apartment was fantastic, clean, comfortable, very spacious, we had 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and everything was perfect. @booking

All the previous reviews about Cosmea tell the story. We loved it - the location is perfect it's really peaceful, but the building you see in the foreground of the main photo is the Ufizzi Gallery - that's how close it is to the sights. In addition to the things listed in the other reviews, we also did a walk out into the 'country' turn right out of the apartment up the hill and in 500 meters you're in peaceful lanes with olive groves and lovely old villas. We walked up the hill to Arcetri and back down to San Miniato al Monte for the amazing views over the city. Highly recommended if you want a break from the busy city (and don't mind a couple of hills!) Also for a local wine bar with great snacks and small plates try Le Volpi e l'Uva it's in a quiet square - close to the Ponte Vecchio but just off the main tourist trail. @abnb

Appartamento di design arredato con molto gusto. Posizione ottima; vicina al centro storico ma allo stesso tempo "appartata" dalle zone turistiche. Locali e ristoranti sotto casa dove assaporare e vivere la Firenze dei fiorentini con i fiorentini! @abnb
