Florence historical centre is pretty well self-contained, so that taking a walk is normally the best way to absorb and enjoy its enchanting fascination. Palazzo D’Ambra is very close to the most astonishing monuments, the most important museums, the most beautiful squares in Florence. The area itself is home to a huge number of vibrant streets, and exclusive or quirky shops; you can also indulge in trying the best restaurants of Florence and taste magnificent local specialties.
So, whenever you stay at Palazzo D’Ambra, time constraints will not be an issue. Do you fancy cooking something? You can get back home in a minute and then go out again.
