Belfiore Magé Apartment Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Belfiore Magé Apartment on Viale Belfiore, you immediately get that “hidden gem” feeling — it’s tucked away in one of those quieter corners of Florence that locals actually know about. The building has this understated elegance that screams quality without being flashy, and honestly, that’s exactly what you want when you’re looking for a proper base in this city. I mean, you’re not here to spend all your time in your room, but when you do come back after a long day of museum-hopping, you want something that feels like a real retreat.

Location & Neighborhood

Here’s the thing about Santa Maria Novella — it’s one of those areas where you get the best of both worlds. You’re close enough to walk to the Duomo (about 15 minutes on foot), but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the tourist crowds every time you step outside. The fact that this four-star property scored an 8.9 for location tells you everything you need to know. There’s a little market around the corner where locals actually shop, and you know what? That’s worth its weight in gold when you want to grab some proper Italian coffee in the morning without paying tourist prices.

The Apartment Experience

What really sets this place apart is that it’s an actual apartment setup — not just another cookie-cutter hotel room. You get space to spread out, which is honestly a game-changer when you’re staying for more than a couple nights. The design strikes this perfect balance between modern comfort and Italian style, without going overboard on either front. The kitchen area is genuinely functional too, not just for show, which means you can actually prepare a simple breakfast or store those amazing cheeses you’ll inevitably buy at the local markets.

Practical Perks

Let’s talk about something that might not sound glamorous but will absolutely make your trip better — they have private parking on site. If you’ve ever tried to navigate Florence with a rental car, you’ll understand why this is basically priceless. Most places in the historic center either don’t have parking at all or charge you an arm and a leg for it. Plus, the whole setup feels more like staying in a friend’s well-appointed place rather than a standard hotel, which gives you that authentic Florence living experience without sacrificing any comfort.

Why Guests Love It

The 9.1 rating speaks for itself, but what really caught my attention is how much couples rave about this place. There’s something about the atmosphere here that just works for romantic getaways — maybe it’s the way the evening light hits the apartment, or how you can actually cook a simple dinner together and feel like temporary Florentines. The staff clearly knows what they’re doing too; everything runs smoothly without being overly formal or stuffy. When you’re in a city as incredible as Florence, you want a place that enhances the experience rather than just providing a bed, and this apartment absolutely delivers on that front.

Reviews of Belfiore Magé Apartment

  • Teresa from Australia (10/10)

    Everything. This was a very last minute change from a smaller uncomfortable place to this amazing apartment. It had everything we needed. Lift for our large suitcases, free WIFI, ability to use Netflix, a washing machine which was a must. Nadia was so helpful and provided everything we could need. Quiet apartment and walking distance to Santa Maria Novella station and the main city, it was perfect. If we come back I would not hesitate to come and stay here again.

  • Shiyi from China (10/10)

    Excellent apartment with a private garage!

  • Terry from United States (9/10)

    This is a beautiful apartment with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. It has clearly recently been renovated and is really well done. Only negative is it a ten minute walk to Santa Maria Novella and about 20-25 to the main sites. We took Ubers home at night, they were expensive but worth it. Really a beautiful apartment just wish it was about 7 minutes closer to the train station and the church.

  • Alex from Romania (10/10)

    Apartment as described, accesible by elevetor, near city center at walking distance, with access to private garage for car. Hosts very prompt an helpful. Communication very good. Will come again.

  • Marcin from Poland (10/10)

  • Yuliya from United States (10/10)

  • Winnie from Singapore (8/10)

    Beautiful apartment and have all we needed. Clear instructions to check in. Keyless. User Manuel around the house is available. Good for our group of 5. Location is slightly out of the main attractions but still walking distance to train station. We booked here as there's private parking garage. Nice stroll by the river to Ponte vecchio, doumo….
