A spacious two bedroom apartment in a great and convenient location. Right on the river, with a beautiful view and within walking distance of just about everything you’d want. 3 min walk to the supermarket and less than a 5 min walk to the ponte vecchio. The apartment was incredibly clean and family apartments were amazing communicators leading up to our arrival and during our stay. Family Apartments made our stay even more enjoyable, making a Florence one of the best experiences we have had so far on our trip.

Family apartments treat you like family. The apt was big and everything worked nicely. It was clean with helpful signs for appliances. The staff are the nicest people you’ll ever meet. I have about a dozen emails from them asking if we needed help with any arrangements, tickets or just advice for Florence. Simply wonderful.

Location was great, apartment nice and big. Very minor items need attention (only one half of toaster worked and shower kept going cold, oh and plug needed for kitchen sink, and didn’t work in bathroom.) None of this stopped us enjoying our holiday, just to let owner know to rectify.

We arrived at 2pm for the 2pm check in time. We were told the previous guests left late and the apartment would be ready in one hour. We came back 1.5 hours later at 3:30pm and the apartment had not been cleaned yet. We sat in the room while the cleaning crew cleaned the apartment for over an hour. This did not fit with our itinerary and was disappointing.

Unsafe, smoker rooms.
We tried checking in right before 8 pm. No one was there. They were almost impossible to get a hold of and threatened to charge us extra for checking in “too late”. When we finally did get in the room reeked of cigarette smoke. Our youngest has severe asthma so this was impossible. We attempted to explain this to them but they told us that was our problem. Finally, after 45 min a woman who lives on the property (they told us no one could help us). Came to show us another room. That room also smelled of cigarette smoke. The entire ordeal lasted over 2.5 hours and ended up with us leaving after they became belligerent and threatening. Between the asthma and feeling unsafe we left. They and hotels.com refuse to refund our money despite the inaccuracies of this property.

Best place to stay in Florence!
Family apartments were amazing! Hands down the best place we stayed on our Europe vacation. You are right on the river, directly across from the Uffizi Gallery, and just a 5 minute walk to cross the Ponte Vecchio. Pure pure magic. The apartment was very very spacious, clean and well maintained.

Fabulous stay! We really enjoyed this apartment!

I would highly recommend! Our family of 5 stayed here for a week during winter holidays of 2018. It was an excellent location - easy walking distance to everything and incredible views over the Arno River. The apartment was very nice, clean, modern, and inviting. We ended up cooking a fair bit and we found the kitchen perfect. Absolutely loved this place.

Amazing Place to Stay
We are a family four and the apartment was perfect. Location is on the river one block from Ponte Vecchio and across from the Uffizi. Half a story above ground so elevator not needed and only a few steps to walk up. Apartment was VERY spacious, clean, new. Special perks were the washing machine, kettle for morning coffee, smart tv, large bathroom with plenty of counter space. This is a one bedroom with a pullout sofa in living room for the kids. Would definitely stay here again.
