Our stay at Palazzo Mannaioni was wonderful! We had a late check-in after the front desk was closed, and Luca was very helpful and responsive in sending us directions on how to check in. The room was amazing; we stayed in Suite 1. We loved that it was like an apartment complex, and the two bathrooms were a huge plus. The surrounding area was also lovely. Florence is so walkable, and it was relatively quiet and felt very safe. We loved staying on this side of the river and getting to explore more of the city. Top recommendations nearby would be La Carraia Gelateria (hands down BEST gelato in town—I’ve had my fair share of gelato, including a few other places in Florence, and nothing beat La Carraia, and at only 2€ for a small with two flavors, it was the lowest price too!), Pizzeria Dante, and Pizzino Cafe. In addition to all the museums and palazzos, make sure to check out Boboli Gardens too! It was great to visit even in off season, so even better when flowers are blooming I’m sure. We were also a 15-min walk from Unità (1.50€ tram to FLR airport) and Firenze SMN (train station) where we left for day trips to Milan and Pisa. In conclusion, our vacation in Florence was absolutely spectacular, and we loved calling Palazzo Mannaioni home for the week. Grazie mille !
