“Residence Porta Al Prato pioneered the apartment-hotel concept in Florence, and while some may find the decor a bit dated, its spacious accommodations particularly suit families seeking a comfortable, self-catered stay outside the city's bustle. I appreciate the inclusion of kitchen facilities and the thoughtful welcome basket. The location provides easy access to public transport for exploring Florence and Tuscany.”
