Location & what to see

Palazzo Guicciardini stands on Via Santo Spirito, in the famous San Frediano district, situated on the left bank of the Arno known as Oltrarno. This historic area of Florence is appreciated for its authentic spirit, dotted with artisan workshops, traditional trattorias, and historic squares such as Piazza Santo Spirito, located just 150 metres away. The position at approximately 50 metres above sea level allows guests to experience genuine Florentine charm while staying steps away from the iconic landmarks of the centre.

Transport connections are extremely practical for anyone arriving in the city: Santa Maria Novella Train Station is just 850 metres away and can be reached in about a 10-minute walk. For those travelling by air, Florence Peretola Airport is 5 km away. The property is located just 350 metres from the famous Ponte Vecchio, about 400 metres from the majestic Pitti Palace, and 550 metres from the Uffizi Gallery, all reachable with a short walk.

This central position makes the property an excellent base in any season of the year. In spring and summer, exploring the nearby Boboli Gardens within the Pitti Palace complex or walking towards Piazzale Michelangelo, 1.5 km away, offers panoramic sunset views over the city. In cooler seasons, the rich museum offering with Palazzo Strozzi at 400 metres and the Accademia Gallery at 1.3 km allows for complete immersion in Renaissance art and culture.
