Location & what to see

AQA Palace is located in Via dell’Acqua, in the historic Uffizi district, one of the most charming and popular areas in the centre of Florence. The property sits just 50 metres from the Bargello National Museum and the Franco Zeffirelli Foundation, in a centuries-old urban setting characterized by Renaissance alleyways, period buildings, artisan workshops, and typical Tuscan trattorias. Its location at 50 metres above sea level places the accommodation right at the vibrant heart of Florentine cultural life.

Getting around is extremely easy to and from any entry point of the city. Santa Maria Novella Railway Station is just 1.1 km away and easily reached with a 15-minute walk through the historic centre or by public transport. Florence Peretola Airport is about 5 km away and directly connected by the city tramway. The most famous monuments are within a very short walking distance: Piazza della Signoria is 200 metres away, the Uffizi Gallery is 350 metres away, and the Duomo with the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore is 400 metres away.

The location offers ideal opportunities in every season of the year. During spring and summer, it is pleasant to walk the 500-metre path to Ponte Vecchio and continue to Pitti Palace (850 metres) or head up to Piazzale Michelangelo, 950 metres away, to enjoy the breathtaking view of the city at sunset. In autumn and winter, the immediate proximity to major museums allows for cultural days sheltered from the cold, discovering masterpieces at the Accademia Gallery (700 metres) or at Dante’s House Museum (150 metres).
