The Firenze Repubblica apartments are well located in the heart of Florence; you can explore the whole city on foot and have one of the best views of the city. The apartments are within a mixed use apartments building, but they are secure and there is a reception area as you walk in through the large wooden doors (note: this is a day only concierge area for the building, as opposed to a reception for the guests of these apartments, but the staff who are present when it is open are helpful and welcoming). Upon arrival, follow the address specified to find the apartments, and you are greeted by a positive and helpful management member. The management team give you contact details too if you happen to need them during your stay. The apartment itself is spacious, nicely decorated and generally well maintained. The view from your terrace is the highlight and unique selling point. It is stunning and well worth every penny. The terrace is a good size so you can relax there too. The apartment appears to be sound proofed as you hear no noise at all, it is also fully air conditioned/heated. The Prosecco was a nice touch on arrival, and you are equipped with essentials such as shampoo etc. as well as a large umbrella which was very useful! The shower although in the middle of the room, has a privacy curtain if you wish to use as well. I would recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a central, attractive apartment with a beautiful view. We were only here for a weekend, but as it’s so well located, you can see so much of what Florence has to offer thanks to this. It is also next to two taxi ranks which is helpful as Uber isn’t really available here. One tiny thing to note: there is no safe in the apartment we stayed in. This would be a great addition!

“Extremely helpful apartment owner”

I booked this apartment through lastminute.com. When we arrived at the apartment we found that lastminute.com had purchased our booking from Agoda, who had not bothered to advise the apartment owner that we had made a booking. When we contacted the apartment owner he was very helpful and put us in a large luxurious apartment just up the road as this Domux was fully booked. I would recommend these apartments, they are high class and service is brilliant, just don't use lastminute.com as they are useless. Thank you so much to the apartment owner for helping us, we really appreciate it.

“Spacious apartment perfect location. Clumsy service”

First and foremost it has nice views of the Duomo from a spacious apartment in the perfect location. It’s clean, good bathroom and showers (though weirdly in the middle of the room). Nice touch to have a nespresso machine and complimentary Prosecco. But do not confuse it for a hotel. It’s more of… more

First and foremost it has nice views of the Duomo from a spacious apartment in the perfect location. It’s clean, good bathroom and showers (though weirdly in the middle of the room). Nice touch to have a nespresso machine and complimentary Prosecco. But do not confuse it for a hotel. It’s more of an AirBnB with minimal information on procedures. Specifically, there was no procedure to check out. Staff were not helpful and misled us about ability to leave luggage after checking out (not possible). Nobody was there to collect keys on a Sunday. So, hopefully you have a morning train from Florence or your own car — otherwise you’ll be stuck carrying your bags throughout the city on the day you check out. If you check out on a Sunday, use your FOB to open the large doors, leave your key on the reception deck and run out before the doors close again!

Beautiful apartment with incredible view of the Duomo. Nice size apartment, very modern and nicely appointed. View directly on the Duomo. Nice terrace to enjoy. Lovely bathroom, though I didn't like the glass enclosed shower in the middle of the room. Small kitchen to do some cooking. Great location. Quiet. They were helpful in receiving a package I had sent to the apartment. Check in process was bad. They asked me to meet someone at 2. He did not show up until 2:35, no communication that he would be late. I called their number multiple times, but no one ever answered the phone. They did provide a bottle of wine as an apology, but it did not make up for the aggravation at the moment. The apartment is managed by a hotel group. They were hard to contact. They did respond to emails. This is not a hotel so don't expect service. Apartment is in an office building, however there are 2 cafe/bars down stairs.
