There’s not a hint of the Renaissance here: These luxe mini-apartments are all bright-white decor and designer furnishings, with natural wood flooring, fiber Wi-Fi, hypoallergenic mattresses, Starck chairs, and modern gadgetry to keep everything running. Each is spacious, cool in summer, and soundproofed against Florence’s background noise. Every apartment has a mini-kitchen, equipped for preparing a simple meal—ideal if you have kids in tow. The top-floor Executive unit has a Nespresso machine, yoga mats, and exercise bike. Unusual for apartments, all are bookable by the single night.
