You are surrounded by services - shopping, restaurants, bars, food - bread, wine, fruit, cheeses, salami - internet & photocopy services, the Amex office and much more, and not five minutes walk from Brunelleschi's famous Duomo, the Uffizzi gallery, the Pitti Palace and the Ponte Vecchio.
Via de' Cerchi gives onto perhaps the most famous piazza in Italy - birthplace of the Renaissance - the Piazza della Signoria, with its glorious sculptures, chief amongst them, Michelangelo's luminous David, and Cellini's famous Perseus. To pass the huge bronze of the Grand Duke Cosimo de' Medici on his great stallion, every night as you walk home from dinner, is an unforgettable experience.
