Visiting Florence

Welcome to Sant’Ambrogio

The Florence Sant’Ambrogio neighborhood is one of the oldest and now one of the most hip districts in the city. It is filled with local markets and restaurants but only a short walk to the main city monuments and museums.

What to do when you’re in Florence?

• Nothing beats an Italian coffee. You’ll find several great coffee bars steps away from the apartment.
• The neighborhood has a variety  of restaurants for all tastes and price levels. You won’t go hungry!
• Even though Florence is not the birthplace of Pizza, you will find several great places nearby.
• You can find the freshest of fruits and vegtables plus meats and fish at the local market down the street.
• Florence is an architectural wonder and many must sees are out  in the open and free of charge.
• Spend a few days extra and visit the surrounding areas outside the city.
