We spent two nights in late August at Palazzo Alfani, myself, husband, mother in law and our 2 daughters aged 6 and 2. When Francesca led us up the huge staircase, and then when inside the apartment, flung open the huge shutters to reveal the rooftops of Florence it took my breath away. There was complimentary bottled water and cold... more

Of all our terrific accommodations during our 3-week trip to Europe this summer, the Palazzo Alfani has to be our absolute favorite! The location, right across the street from the Accademia Museum (home of David), was ideal -- not too crammed with tourists, but not too far away from the sights. We walked up a few flights of stairs to... more

26th September to 1st October When we arrived at Palazzo Alfani, my husband and 2 daughters aged 8 and 10 were absolutely delighted with the apartment. It was across the road from the Accademia, but on the quiet side, not on the road side which would have been much noisier. Francesca, who looked after us was lovely and even organised... more

My husband and I spent 4 nights at the Palazzo Alfani. All I have to say is that 4 nights was not long enough! This little apartment residence, located directly across from the Accademia, is an absolute gem. There is no lobby, no concierge, no bell boys...which in my opinion adds even more to it's charm. What you will find... more

Rather than staying at a hotel on my last trip to Florence, Italy, I decided to rent an apartment. Palazzo Alfani al David is so conveniently located and is literally right across the street from the Academia and around the corner from Piazza San Marco. My expectations of the apartment were throughly exceeded. It was bright, airy, very spacious, immaculately... more

Very nicely appointed place to stay in Florence. We paid 240 euros per night for 2 adults and 2 children in this one bedroom apartment. I would have liked twin beds for the kids not a sofa bed if I could've found it but nevertheless the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was more of a kitchenette, you could cook simple... more

Our family (2 adults, 2 teens) stayed for 4 wonderful nights over Easter. The best thing I can say is that we will stay here when we return to Florence. Our room was amazing, with separate bedroom (bed was unbelievably comfortable), living room (with very comfortable fold out sofa) and small, but well stocked kitchen. A small grocery store was... more

Location, location, location. In this perfect spot for walking to all Florence's historical sites, we spent five days in February, 2008. Our superb 2-room apartment overlooked the entrance to the Accademia Museum and had a view of the Duomo. The English-speaking Alfani family, who reside at the newly renovated and impeccably clean and neat place, were available to assist us... more

Me and my wife stayed at Palazzo Alfani in late August 2007 on our honeymoon trip. I must say, this is a very beautiful place, with a very helpful and kind landlady Franceska, who was always eager to meet our needs. Perfect location and decoration, this really is a very romantic place to stop by in Florence. We even made... more
