Nau

Welcome to Nau, a stunning two-bedroom penthouse that offers a unique and unforgettable stay in the heart of Florence. Few cities can rival Florence, a place that is, in its entirety, a monument to the Renaissance. As you wander through the city’s narrow streets and take in its extraordinary beauty, it is hard to imagine the hidden gems that lie above its rooftops. Tucked away inside a historic palazzo in the medieval center of the city, Nau is one of those rare treasures. This beautifully renovated duplex penthouse offers far more than luxury accommodation. If you are willing to climb the nearly 90 steps to reach the apartment, you will be rewarded with breathtaking views that place the entire city of Florence at your feet.

The apartment is thoughtfully arranged across two floors. The lower level is dedicated to rest and relaxation, featuring the bedrooms and bathrooms, while the upper floor is designed as the social heart of the home, with the living area and kitchen. The design balances timeless elegance with contemporary comfort, creating an atmosphere of warmth, style, and understated luxury. At Nau, guests are surrounded by comfort and refined details, all while enjoying extraordinary 360-degree views over the rooftops of Florence.

The living spaces are located on the top floor and are accessed by a short set of 15 steps with a wrought-iron handrail. Here, a bright and beautifully decorated living room welcomes you with charm and character. The space is enhanced by traditional beamed ceilings, large windows draped with flowing curtains, and elegant blond-wood furnishings. Romantic white upholstered seating adds a sense of comfort and sophistication, making this the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring the city.

One of the most remarkable features of this living area is its two terraces, positioned on opposite sides of the apartment. These outdoor spaces allow guests to enjoy breakfast in the morning light or a relaxing drink in the evening while watching the spectacular Florentine sunsets. The fully equipped kitchen blends seamlessly into the room, transforming everyday cooking into an enjoyable experience thanks to the vibrant atmosphere and inspiring views. For added convenience, the apartment is also equipped with both a washer and a dryer.

Nau is an ideal choice for active guests, two couples, or a couple traveling with two teenagers. The four-floor walk-up adds a touch of adventure to your stay, and those who don’t mind the climb will find the reward well worth it. From this peaceful retreat above the city, every major Florentine landmark is just a short 10-minute walk away, while the noise of the busy streets remains pleasantly distant. Staying at Nau truly means enjoying your own private “room with a view” in one of the world’s most beautiful cities.
