Staying at Maggio Living apartments means immersing yourself in the authentic heart of Florence, in one of the city’s most fascinating and lively areas. Just a few minutes’ walk away, you’ll find two of the most iconic and must-see locations: Piazza Pitti and Ponte Vecchio. Two names that tell stories of history, art, and beauty, all within a few steps.

Piazza Pitti: Renaissance Elegance at Your Doorstep

Imposing yet harmonious, Piazza Pitti welcomes locals and travelers daily with the majesty of Palazzo Pitti, the historic residence of the Medici family. Today it houses important museum galleries, including the Palatine Gallery and the Treasury of the Grand Dukes, and is one of Florence’s most beautiful squares. Behind it lies the Boboli Gardens, a green oasis of peace and wonder, perfect for a stroll among fountains, statues, and breathtaking views of the city.

Living just steps away from this masterpiece means you can visit it at your leisure, perhaps early in the morning or at sunset, when light caresses the palace stones and everything feels more intimate and authentic.

Ponte Vecchio: A Timeless Icon

Walking along Via Guicciardini, in less than five minutes on foot, you’ll reach the beating heart of the Oltrarno: the famous Ponte Vecchio. The city’s oldest bridge is also one of the most photographed in the world, with its goldsmith and artisan shops suspended over the Arno and the Vasari Corridor silently spanning above.

Taking a walk on the Ponte Vecchio in the morning, as the city awakens, or in the evening, with lights reflecting on the water, is an experience that stays in your heart.

A Location That Offers Beauty, Every Day

Maggio Living is more than just a place to sleep: it’s a perfect starting point to experience Florence through different eyes, rediscovering the magic of its streets, monuments, and atmosphere. With Piazza Pitti and Ponte Vecchio just steps away, each day begins with beauty and ends with enchantment.
