Special Characteristics

Primavera is an apartment in the Palazzo Bardi. On the south side of the Arno River, the palazzo overlooks Via de’ Bardi on one side and the Ponte Vecchio, the Uffizi Gallery, and the Duomo on the other. The building is in an ideal location to walk the streets of Florence and reach major sightseeing destinations.

The original building structure of the palazzo dates back to the 15th century, when the banks of the river were flanked by buildings belonging to patrician families such as the Bardi family. The apartment is on the mezzanine floor, and is reached on foot.

The entrance hallway is decorated with frescoes of spring plants wrapped around bamboo trees. Throughout the apartment, the natural wood ceilings have been carefully restored, as have the floors with their beige tiles similar to travertine stone. The walls are painted with flower and plant prints, and the soft greens of the fabric reflect this natural theme. The apartment furnishings mix modern and antique styles to create a warm, comfortable atmosphere throughout.

The living and dining room includes a writing desk, two sofas, an armchair, and a round table that can seat up to six people. The bedroom and the living room have small windows overlooking the Arno River and the Uffizi Gallery. The modern eat-in kitchen also has a table for four. The bedroom is a twin, but can be converted to a double on request. The large bathroom has a bathtub and shower attachment.

The apartment has air conditioning, a dishwasher, washing machine, TV, hair dryer, telephone, and independent heating.
