Attico Duomo was perfect for our stay in Florence. The location could not be beat. We were near all the major sites without being completely bombarded by tourists. The apartment is beautifully decorated and comfortable with a full kitchen that, yes, we could easily cook in! The terrace gave us the most amazing views of the city. Everyone in our group highly recommends this apartment!

Lovely apartment, quiet, comfortable and very clean. A/C worked well during hot weather and beds were comfortable. Best of all was the rooftop terrace with its views of the Duomo and the hills surrounding Florence, and a lovely garden opposite. Good restaurants within walking distance too.
