Great Property & Location
by Denise Scutellaro
We just returned from a (5) night stay in the S Croce Tosca. We've stayed in Florence several times before and this by far were the best accommodations we've experienced. It's perfect for two couples as it's laid out in a way to have bedroom privacy and also great common area in the living room and kitchen. The building has been updated and is appointed with everything that you may need to make your stay a great one. Its location in Santa Croce is also very convenient to all areas of the city. Upon arrival we were greeter was friendly, showed us around, and answered all of our questions. I would highly recommend the Tosca and plan to return again.

S Croce Tosca Review
by Katharine Casey
The apartment was perfect for two couples. Each couple had their own separate spaces (both could be closed off completely from the rest of the apartment) which made it seem like there were two apartments in one. It was ideal. The decor felt like we were in the countryside - cozy and welcoming. The location was excellent and we were never 10 minutes away from anything. It was easy to come back to the apartment for a short break (or siesta) on those hot days where we needed refreshment. [Thank you so much Katharine, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay!

S Croce Tosca Review
by Steve & Kay
The accommodations were better than described. We were very pleased to find the apartment to be such a wonderful place in terms of spaciousness, decor, and location. The kitchen was well equipped and the apartment met our needs in every way. We will recommend to our friends and tell them all about it. If they come to Florence, we will let them know that they should stay here. We would rate Tosca a 10, for sure. As to any other comments, the only unusual thing is the requirement to take out the trash upon check out, especially since taking it out involves carrying it a couple of blocks away to the trash dumpster. But, we enjoyed the place so much, we are happy to meet this requirement. Thank you so much. We really did enjoy our stay here and will certainly recommend it to others! [Thanks so much! The Italy Perfect Team]

The accommodations were wonderful that overlooked the piazza. Even though it was very hot as was expected, we were able to fully enjoy the Florence culture as well as a tour of Tuscany, Sienna, and Pisa.We will certainly recommend Italy Perfect to our family and friends. [Thanks so much, so glad you could eventually make it. The Italy Perfect Team]

Our time staying in apartment Santa Croce Tosca was absolutely wonderful. The apartment had everything we needed to cook on our own and the views were amazing. It was incredibly cozy, with an amazing location, and wonderful staff who helped us with any questions we had.

The location couldn't be better. Plenty of room for all five of us. Plus everyone had there own bath plus air conditioner in all rooms. Host were very accommodating and answered all questions. Only one flaw kitchen needed a few more items (soap for dishes and surfaces). Our six days couldn't have been better. [We are delighted your stay was so nice. The Italy Perfect team]

S Croce Tosca Review
by The M Family
The Santa Croce Tosca is a wonderful, well-located apartment. Much more spacious than expected having traveled in Europe over the years. My guys are well over 6 feet tall, so that was an important factor. We had the beds made into one bed in each of the 2 very spacious bedrooms and they were at least as large an an American king size bed...very comfortable as well. The layout worked well and the apartment was as described and photos were accurate on the Italy Perfect website...actually even a little nicer in person. It was nice to be in a beautiful and historic building with on-site management!! We were greeted in a friendly manner by Francesca and shown around the apartment thoroughly with lots of instruction. There was a problem with the air conditioning for the first several days. Unfortunately it had been shut off at the unit in the back bedroom beside the washer/dryer. The housekeeper was called who immediately identified and corrected the problem with the push of a button. Much cooler after that! There was a very loud event in the Piazza one weekend during daytime hours (which we were out and about most of the time anyway) and some other "partying" noise at night mainly on the weekends. But you are looking directly onto a very large Piazza, so to be expected. The glass partition between the master bedroom and the windows looking onto the Piazza was a very wise decision and helps to block out much of the noise. The back bedroom is very quiet. It was really nice to be able to have the apartment as a "base of operation" so we could easily take day trips and side trips without dragging lots of luggage around and we had a "home" to come back to afterwards. There's also a little more of a feeling of being a part of things rather than going from hotel to hotel. One thing I might have changed (other than the air conditioning problem in the beginning) is the time of year we traveled (May). It was very crowded with LOTS of groups of tourists and vendors trying to sell things constantly. I think I'd choose April or October if we were to make the trip again. We loved hiking up to the Piazzale Michaelangelo and the monastery nearby (incredible views). Not so many tourists at the beautiful monastery! Consider trying Il Bussola Ristorante...our favorite! We took wonderful side trips to Anacapri (top of the Isle of Capri) and San Quirico d'Orcia, well out into the Tuscany countryside. Also a lovely day trip to Fiesole. WONDERFUL!! Pat with Italy Perfect was great to work with and very helpful! I really appreciated not being negatively surprised when we entered the apartment. It was very much as represented. Upon IP's recommendation, we worked with guide, Veronica Ranucci, who was knowledgeable and professional. I have already mentioned Italy Perfect to several friends who asked how we found an apartment in Florence. [What a great review. Thank you so much. The Italy Perfect Team]

S Croce Tosca Review
by John B.
Our apartment at Santa Croce Tosca was excellent--clean, comfortable, everything as promised. The greeter , Francesca, was very helpful and we enjoyed the party hosted by her mother the Contessa. Our utility costs were quite a bit less than advertised and the WiFi worked well. As you probably know there is considerable noise rising from piazza Santa Croce on Friday and Saturday evenings as it is a gathering spot; but we ran a sound machine (white noise worked best) and really had no problems sleeping on those evenings. It is definitely a good place to stay in Florence and close to everything. Restaurant tip: Francesco Vini , really good in a town full of good places to eat and very close. Yes, I would recommend Italy Perfect to anyone.

S Croce Tosca Review
by DI
My family of 10 stayed in two apartments in this apartment building. One family of 5 stayed in the S. Croce Tosca. There were three bedrooms, a livingroom/diningroom area . two bathrooms, and a very functional kitchen with a long, rustic, dining table for informal dining. The apartment also had a washer and dryer. Very comfortable after staying in hotels in London and Rome. Visitors should be aware that these apartments are owned by different people, therefore, charges in addition to the rental fee differ. Some will charge for wifi and others will not. You will be charged for utilities, but it was fair. [All of the apartments in this building are owned by the same family. The guest is referring to apartments elsewhere in Florence where another member of her family stayed and that had wifi included in the price. Italy Perfect] Since some of the apartments are occupied by permanent residents, the info sheet asks visitors to be considerate. Children need to be reminded to keep their voices down in the stairways and to step lightly in the apartments. This apartment building is well-situated. There are shops, a market, San Clemente Church [Santa Croce], and outdoor cafes around the palazzo. I appreciated the taxi station a few steps away from the front door. Apartments in the back of the building are quieter because the ones in front face the square. Fun to people watch. Ideal for families with children at least 10 years old. This is strictly an apartment situation with no concierge, restaurant,etc. Italy Perfect was most helpful.

S Croce Tosca Review
by The Stone Family
The apartment at Santa Croce surpassed our expectations---The square provided a wonderful setting to enjoy the beauty and energy of Florence--the staff in the building provided superior service---The apartment was very comfortable but the elevator was quite small---Having windows above the square provided an outstanding way to see and hear all activity---Having windows look out on the square is a "must."
