When traveling to a city as rich in culture, art and accommodation options as Florence you have an immense amount of decision making to do. While the variety of paintings and sculpture will keep your camera out at all times, when the day is finished and your walking shoes have logged a good five miles or so you will want to return to a place that makes you feel relaxed and at home. The absolute best way to do this is to find a short term luxury apartment in Florence. Florence became the most prosperous European city centuries ago for a keen sense of giving what was needed to consumers and businesses and some things do not change.
The difference between staying in a hotel and staying in a short term flat rental in Florence is huge. Both can be conveniently located, within walking distance of all the beauty that the city offers, but returning to a hotel is not the same as an apartment. With an apartment you will have more personal space and a greater feeling of being welcomed that it is almost impossible to get in a hotel. You can make a quick little stop at the corner bottega and pick up the makings of a few pannini’s to hold you over while all the good restaurants have closed down between lunch and dinner. You can have the entire family or group of friends in one place, or on the opposite end of the spectrum you can find a perfect apartment for a couple. You will have a greater sense of privacy and also a stronger sense of living like an Italian when you make the decision to to find a luxury apartment for rent in Florence rather than an anonymous hotel.
Another great benefit is the variability of location. A hotel takes up quite a bit of land in a city where that is not only hard to come by, but also very expensive. Apartments on the other hand, are literally located in every nook and cranny that the curvy cobblestoned streets of the city offer. You can find a short term flat rental not only in the same areas as all of the hotels, but also in all the quarters where it is impossible to put a hotel. This will allow you greater flexibility and also greater proximity to quiet little neighborhood places that a hotel does not allow.
Making the choice to take a short term apartment rental in Florence over a hotel room will also allow you greater contact with Florentines. You will be in closer proximity to the people that live in this stunning city and can steer you to restaurants and sagre and activities that will not make it into the tourist guide books. You will be able to find restaurants where you are virtually the only tourist, and we all know how well that speaks of the experience. For the all around best experience of the cradle of the Renaissance there is no better option than finding a great apartment.
