Alfani Studio Residence – Bright One‑Bedroom Apartment Steps from the Duomo
Ideally located in the historic centre of Florence, this charming one‑bedroom apartment offers exceptional convenience for Europass students and visitors. Two Europass school locations are just a 5‑minute walk away, while the third is approximately 10 minutes on foot.
Its central position also places you just a 2‑minute walk from the Florence Cathedral, with all major landmarks — including the Uffizi Gallery, Galleria dell’Accademia, Ponte Vecchio, and Piazza della Signoria — easily reachable on foot.
If you are travelling as a larger group, you may also book the adjacent apartment, an independent one‑bedroom flat with its own private entrance and complete amenities.
Located on the first floor of a historic Florentine building (accessible via 13 steps), this apartment is peaceful, bright, and perfectly suited for a comfortable stay right in the heart of the city.
