Property information

Florence & Us Santa Croce is located 50 meters from the Basilica of Santa Croce. Ideal location for visiting the city of Florence.

Neighbourhood information

The Santa Croce area in Florence, found along the eastern end of Florence’s historical center and running along the right bank of the Tuscan river Arno, is a great area to explore and visit with its churches, markets, numerous restaurants, nightlife and shops. The name of the square and the quarter comes from the main church it hosts, the Basilica of Santa Croce, well known for the numerous graves or funeral monuments of important Italian historical characters placed within: you can visit the graves or monuments of Galileo Galilei, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Macchiavelli, Rossellini, Ugo Foscolo and many more. The square on which the church overlooks is rectangular-shaped, perfect for hosting one of the most important events in Florence every year: the Calcio Storico Fiorentino. Here, the 4 neighborhoods of Florence challenge each other to win a Palio, an entire beef of Chianina (an Italian breed of cattle of central Italy from which the Bistecca alla Fiorentina has to be made of) and the honor of the win, of course! All throughout the year, the square hosts several other fairs and festivals, from the Christmas market in December to the Chocolate fair in February. IMPORTANT! The historic center of Florence is a limited traffic area. It can be accessed by car only if you park it in a nearby garage. In case you decide to come by car, we kindly ask you to inform us. We can help you to find and book the garage closest to the property.
