Turan

Welcome to Turan, a refined apartment that offers a truly special way to experience Florence. Located in the Oltrarno district, often considered the city’s rive gauche, this neighborhood sits just across the Arno River yet feels like a world of its own. Although it is still part of Florence’s historic center, Oltrarno has a quieter rhythm and a more authentic atmosphere compared to the busier side of the river. Frequently described as Florence’s best kept secret, the area reflects the everyday life of the city’s residents. Here you will find lively street markets selling locally sourced products, traditional artisan workshops, and some of the finest restaurants serving fresh farm-to-table cuisine. In the heart of this vibrant neighborhood, Turan stands out as a luxurious retreat with one of the most extraordinary views Florence has to offer.

Upon entering the apartment, guests are welcomed into a bright and beautifully decorated living space. The open-plan layout combines the dining and sitting areas into one harmonious environment designed for both comfort and style. Two large windows frame one of the most iconic panoramas in the city, offering breathtaking views of Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery. The interior design skillfully blends formal elegance with a relaxed atmosphere. Original architectural features, including blond-wood parquet floors and elegant coffered ceilings, are complemented by tasteful details such as a refined wall shelving unit, crisp white curtains, and comfortable twin sofas that create an inviting yet sophisticated setting.

The apartment also features a compact yet fully equipped kitchen designed with both beauty and functionality in mind. Its polished marble countertop and backsplash add a touch of luxury, while high-end appliances provide everything needed to prepare anything from a simple breakfast to a memorable dinner. A convenient laundry room with both washer and dryer ensures additional comfort during longer stays.

Turan is perfectly suited for two couples seeking a stylish and intimate stay in Florence. Set within one of the city’s most charming quarters, it provides easy access to some of Florence’s most celebrated landmarks. Within walking distance are Palazzo Pitti, the Boboli Gardens, the Brancacci Chapel, the Basilica of Santo Spirito, and Piazzale Michelangelo, the famous viewpoint where photographers capture the city’s most iconic skyline. From the windows of Turan itself, guests can enjoy their own postcard-perfect perspective, with unforgettable views of Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi Gallery right before their eyes.
